I had a great stay at Hotel OR Opitours in Bocagrande, Cartagena. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and always accommodating whenever I needed assistance. The amenities were good and made the stay comfortable, but what truly made this hotel stand out was the location.

Everything you could possibly need was nearby — a 24-hour pharmacy, 24-hour supermarket, plenty of restaurants, and the beach was only about a 10-minute walk away. The convenience of having everything so close made the experience even better.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Cartagena and looking for a comfortable stay in a great location.

Me and two of my colleagues stayed in this particular hotel although it was a last-minute decision however we made it work. We stayed in Cartagena once before. And we had an amazing time all the trip did get canceled because of the war however we ended up back at Cartagena the people that worked at this hotel was amazing A1 I must say . One of my colleagues decided to pay a little bit extra to get a better room however he had no refrigerator no hot water. The bed was as hard as rocks in the same with my room. The bed was extremely hard. The AC did not work I complained twice they never fixed it. The water was not hot and asked for my other colleague same thing with his bed as well extremely hard. The pool was decent. If you ask me what I stay in this place I would say no knowing these conditions, the overpriced everything they up charges for the breakfast for extra cheese. Imagine that we don’t mind paying for extra but when it’s not listed, we have issues with that, however overall the place is not a good place to stay so if you guys are seeking to go to this country it’s an amazing country that people are really nice. Do not choose this hotel. It’ll be the worst mistake you ever paid for.

Disappointing, Misleading, and Poorly Managed. I booked Hotel OR through Expedia during a trip to Colombia and my experience was extremely disappointing. Due to a medical emergency caused by an attempted robbery in Medellín that resulted in a serious knee injury, I was forced to change my travel dates. I contacted Expedia immediately and asked only that my hotel stay be moved to match my revised flights, not refunded, and was open to reasonable fees. The hotel was extremely difficult to reach and when contact was finally made, management refused any flexibility. I was charged for a four-day stay I physically could not attend and ultimately ended up paying for the same hotel twice in good faith, assuming the second booking would be refunded. It was not. When I arrived in person to resolve the issue, the manager was cold, dismissive, and unhelpful, making no effort to acknowledge the situation. The condition of the hotel was also poor, with visible mold that appeared to have been painted over rather than properly addressed, raising concerns about cleanliness and health standards. Between the lack of empathy, rigid policies, and substandard conditions, this stay fell far below expectations. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone expecting professionalism or basic customer care.

I contacted Expedia immediately and asked only to move my stay to match my new flights, not for a refund.

When I arrived and attempted to resolve this in person, management was cold, dismissive, and denied any communication from Expedia. The room conditions were unacceptable. The first room shown was dirty and clearly not what I paid for. The second room did not match the advertised photos. There was visible mold on walls and under the air conditioner, bugs in the room, no hot water, a broken TV, a non-functioning safe, and no refrigerator despite being listed. Bedding consisted of only a sheet and small throw. Amenities were also misleading. The advertised “full breakfast” does not exist; there is no buffet and basic items cost extra. The rooftop breakfast area appeared unhygienic. The pool was cloudy, dirty, and unusable, and there is no hot tub despite listings suggesting otherwise. This property is poorly maintained, misleadingly advertised, and managed with little regard for guests. I would not recommend it.

A hotel itself is pretty basic the breakfast very basic. The staff on the other hand were very accommodating very nice. They upgraded my room because the first room they put me in was very small and smelled terribly. I could recommend this hotel if you’re just looking for basic accommodation and not luxury it is a good value and it’s conveniently located next to everything.

This place isn’t for tourists !!!
As i came in. Big sign on elevator not working.
I changed room due to bad smell. In the other room air conditioning wasn’t working so at 2am i was offered a room at the 4th floor no elevator. Now good luck moving your staff.
Next day i asked a free night they refused and willing to give only half price on another night.
Thanks to orbitz that saved me from that place.
No hot water !!! What ?? They said in few days they’ll fix that…. Yea right like the elevator. Poor bedding. Internet disconnect all the time.
Breakfast is a joke. Horrible. You wait 20 min until they talk to you. Antz all over tables.
Not safe. At night only 1 worker at reception that can get easily to your room.
The woman asked me not to write bad review but im sorry. I have to warn other ppl not to trap into this place.
STAY AWAY as you can. Cheers.

Nice street view from balcony (but I think only two apartments with balcony so maybe I got lucky). Breakfast is purposely cooked for you and good quality, so not unlimited buffet.
Central, lots to do nearby, near restaurants, transport, beach, gym, shops. Cooler and fridge in room was surprisingly good. Secure building because no visitors allowed and reception very small.
Very noisy area nearly all night/morning, no blackout blinds, no “do not disturb/clean” tag for door, none of the staff speak basic level of English. Overall, you get what you pay for (so don’t compare to Hilton or Caribe down the road) and if you don’t mind the night noise and speak a little Spanish then a good choice for travelling on a budget and I would return but most probably bring something to temporarily blackout windows.

This hotel has its pros and cons:

Pros:

-If you're seeking an affordable place within a short walking distance to the beach, this hotel is an excellent choice. Boca Grande beach is just a 3-5 minute walk away.

-The neighborhood is safe and offers convenient access to amenities like banks, shops, and restaurants. It's also easy to find transportation to the city center within 10-20 minutes.

Cons:

- While they provide daily room cleaning, the sheets won't be changed unless you specifically request it.
- The air conditioning doesn't have an automatic shut-off, leading to uncomfortably cold nights, especially since there are no comforters.
- Curiously, they keep tight control over the towels, as if they're afraid they'll be stolen. Your towels often disappear as soon as you step out.
- The hotel enforces numerous rules, giving the impression of being confined in a restrictive environment such as a jail.
For each visitor you have, there's a charge of 70,000 COB before they're allowed to enter your room. This policy applies even if it's just a brief 1-hour massage, which can become quite costly if you have many friends visiting. Additionally, the staff's attitude towards visitors can be quite impolite.
- Complimentary bottled water is not provided.
- The breakfast experience is quite underwhelming and minimal. However, considering the price you pay, it's acceptable.

In conclusion, I would not choose to stay there again. Best of luck in your decision-making.

I took a pill for sleeping to be sure I would not be bother for any noise, until the phone started ringing. They stopped as soon as I answered and couldnt sleep again. When I complained with the receptionist the next morning, he just said that there were some drunk people calling the guests.

As we were about to go to bed, my girlfriend saw a cockroach in our room. There were no other rooms available , and the night receptionist made very little effort to contact any hotels to find us different accommodations.

Good option in Bocagrande

To have a change from staying in the historic center of Cartagena, I decided to pick a hotel in Bocagrande that was close to Playa Hollywood. This small hotel is well run. The staff are friendly. Breakfast is adequate and filling (I enjoyed good coffee and fresh fruit). The room size was large. Small pool was bonus. There are many restaurants in the vicinity of the hotel. I experienced no issues with noise. It is a short taxi ride away from the walled city and the boats to the islands.

GREAT VALUE with a POOL in Bocagrande

This small hotel in Bocagrande suited our purposes just fine! We stayed here for two nights. We love walking and had no trouble walking to the main historical sites of Cartagena from here.
There is a huge selections of food for the included breakfast. Also there is a small swimming pool – so welcome after a hot day touring Cartagena. Furthermore, there are plenty of restaurants nearby.
The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful, and one young lady in particular, who was extremely kind and patient with us, was getting quite fluent in English!
The rooms are clean, quite small, and the shower water was rather luke warm for us.
The beach is a only a 5 minute walk away, and we enjoyed it briefly one evening but found out it strictly closes at 6 pm!
I would highly recommend this for a safe, budget stay in the Cartagena area. Probably the best value with a pool!

Close to everything, 2 blocks to beach and dining.

Staff was the best, very helpful at tending every need with a big smile. Location is very nice, just one block off the busy street away from all the traffic and noise yet so close to al the action, good shopping, and dining and very closed to old-town (AKA Walled City or Centro Historico). Room was very clean every morning by the time I came back from the breakfast, advantage of a small hotel. Bed was very comfortable as most hotel beds even all the 5-Star ones hurt my back so I carry pain killers with me when I travel but this bed was great and very comfortable. Breakfast could be improved a little as it was exactly same thing for a straight week and the pool is small but who wants to use a pool when you have the Caribbean Sea in 2 blocks anyway, right :) Don't expect a 5-Star hotel amenities but everything was great for the price because you are not paying 5-Star prices either and, one thing for sure, there is no way to get the service and personal attention of the nice staff this hotel has in any other large 5-Star hotel. I am definitely going back to the same hotel when I go back and hope to find the same staff working because they all were top-notch.

The hotel was nice, the room was large and clean, the staff were great and everything needed was in walking distance...

Disappointing

After searching for a comfortable and within budget hotel. I bump in with Hotel OR, seemed ok according to the pictures. So I decided to book a doable for me and my wife.
however first issue was the bed, for one...it was two single beds slide together, and the hotel didn't even put a blanket on top to hide the fact that it wasn't a king size bed, but two singles.
Second issue, after 9 hours flying first thing you want to do after taking a shower is a nice soft bed. As i pointed out the bed wasn't what i was expecting. (Im 6´1´´so i need a big bed.). So anyhow, i went to bed just to discover, it was the hardest ¨Bed¨ i have the unpleasant pleasure to sleep in. I mean ROCK hard!!! For some reason there was an extra bed (kid size) in my room. So at the end I decided to curl in since this one was a bit softer than the other two rocks.
I was so mad, tired and disappointed that i started looking for another hotel to move to the very next day. Since on my confirmation sheet it said, that i could cancel or change my stay but would be charge for the night.
However to my surprise hotel management wasn't going to honor that!!! And offer only to change room, other than that i was not getting any refund.
So i was move to another room, this time bed was in fact kingsize, whoever just about the same, hard!!!
Not only that but after arguing (in a POLITE manner) with the receptionist about the bed, from then on she was the most rude and unpleasant concierge I have ever deal with!

Very Nice boutique hotel

Very nice boutique hotel. Great customer service. Eileen was a very good in helping us with how to get around the city and tours. If you looking for a small and quiet hotel with modern room this is the place. Very reasonable prices

Homey & Clean

We stayed there 5 nights. The staff are very friendly. The place is organized and clean. Rooms have high sealing and the bathroom/shower looks awesome. I am a tea lover and anywhere else I have stayed I had to ask for hot water to make tea. There is hot water/coffee pot in the lobby so anytime I could make my tea.
We had to check out at 1pm and our flight wasn't till after 9pm. The hotel let us stayed in the patio and even left the A/C and the TV on in the kitchen sitting area though the kitchen was closed so we could sit down and do out things. They even offered us to use the swimming pool.
I have stayed in a lot of hotels in Colombia and I would say I would go back to this place again. Close to the beach and the corner store. Simple but modern design. The price via expedia was fair. WiFi speed was decent and the internet did't cut out like all the other places I have stayed before. Breakfast was till 10am which was great.

Nice place in the heart of Boca Grande

The staff was very helpful and cordial and the room was very clean and nicely designed. Not to be confused with a luxury lodging Hotel Or does have a small breakfast dining area and soaking pool in the back on the first floor. They should really allow for pre-payment through Expedia, as the payment at the reception at check-out is not very convenient. A nice stay!

The hotel was very clean and nice. Nice little pool with a few lounge chairs to relax on. Only two blocks from the beach. Staff was very helpful, was able to tell us how to get the the walled city and even went out and got the taxi and negotiated the price for us so we didn't have to worry about any taxi scams. There are plenty of restaurants and even a full supermarket within walking distance.

Llegamos cansados del aeropuerto y nos encontramos con todo esto en la habitación:

-La ducha salía sin presión y con inexistencia de agua caliente.
-La manilla de la puerta del baño estaba rota por dentro, la única manera de abrir la puerta era que otra persona lo hiciera por la parte de afuera.
-La puerta principal de la habitación tenía un hueco en todo el medio.
-El lavamanos se tapaba de agua al usarlo, y se hacía una piscina en el lavamanos.
-La tapa de la poceta por dentro estaba negra, lo cual era desagradable usar.
-Tanto el lavamanos como los muebles de la televisión (sucios), estaban pelados, y oxidados.
-Las paredes estaban con muchas manchas negras.
-La atención por parte de la gerente fue de muy mal gusto.
-La vista de la habitación daba miedo.
