What's the best place to stay in Cartagena for New Year's?

Question

I'm thinking of visiting Cartagena, Colombia for New Year's Eve. Where should I stay?

Answer 1

There's a lot of great hotels in Cartagena, but if you are going for New Years then you want to be in the old city where all the celebrations take place.  Usually they place all kinds of bands around  " La Plaza de Santo Domingo" and everyone dances in the street. If you stay in other hotels near "El Laguito" or Bocagrande" that have better beaches but are farther from the old city, you will find it hard to find any transportation back to your hotel that night.  Everybody will be partying including the bus and taxi drivers.  We have had to walk back home before.

Some of the best hotels near the old city are:

-Sofitel Santa Clara

-Charleston (Santa Teresa)

Other good hotels are:

- Hotel Las Americas

- Hotel Hilton

- Hotel Caribe

- Hotel Decameron

Here's a website for some more info and more hotels depending on your budget.  Enjoy your trip, you'll have a ball!!
