About the Hotel
Founded in 1533, Cartagena de Indias, is today Colombia's main travel destination. Its walls that once served as the city's defense, now harmonize with colonial balconies and republican structures reminiscent of the splendors of its past. In recognition of its vast cultural wealth and architecture UNESCO declared Cartagena's walled city and fortresses World Heritage Site in 1984. Originally built as a convent in 1621, the Sofitel Legend Cartagena Santa Clara is a legendary landmark in the heart of Cartagena's walled city. Transformed into a luxury hotel in 1995, the Sofitel Santa Clara, unique in style, combines the allure of history with local hospitality and the art of French savoir-faire. Mixing Colonial and Republican-style architecture with modern comfort, the hotel features gourmet cuisine, exceptional service, a world-class spa, meeting facilities and state of the art technology for events, conventions and weddings.

Best Cartagena dinner
Excellent service!! Leonardo was superb. Food was of excellent quality. Prices were quite reasonable A special treat was a tour of the tribute to Gabriel Garcia Marquez and the entrance to the crypt. The location was beautiful and the attention to details and preservation of the site was much appreciated !

Cartagena dining experience Sofitel
We were staying very close to this historic restaurant and hotel. It is a must see and do for dinner within the walled city. unlike other high-end restaurants in the area, they had a specific children’s menu, Which is perfect we had three children under the age of 13 . The atmosphere is elegant, but not stuffy. Great wait staff, very attentive. Food exceptional. Highly recommend. Leonardo was our waiter. Excellent service.

Amazing stay. Can’t wait to come back!
Our stay was spectacular. Visiting Cartagena is always a very special experience but staying at Santa Clara is just the perfect way to make you stay perfect. Definitely, the absolutely best place to stay in town. Shoutout to Kevin (main floor) who since the moment we checked out to the moment we left, would make sure all of our needs were met and the treatment was just beyond special from his part. And also to Bryan in the pool area for making everything absolutely perfect and beyond comfortable for us. Thank for pampering us always, Sofitel.
