Nice place but was somewhat difficult to find. Entrance is hidden between business (one is a perfume shop) Lobby had a really strong odd smell. Receptionist were not very friendly and seemed like they did not want to be there or help. Rooms were nice and so was the shower. Toilet seat was extremely loose. Rooftop pool was nice but there was a lot of pigeon excrement and feathers in the water.
The hotel and staff were outstanding. The food was delicious and the rooms were very spacious. The bathroom was very big. The outside is very busy but this is normal in the heart of the city.
Nice place to stay
Good breakfast and beds are comfortable.
The staff was really nice and helpful
This hotel is walking distance to the beach but the beach is a seaport . Not really a swimming beach but the locals do swim there
The hotel is nice and the rooms were cleaned. However PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE AREA, Do NOT go inside the water, it’s contaminated and can lead to serious health problems. The surroundings are also not very safe so if you plan to stay in the hotel and enjoy the amenities that is great, but if you want to enjoy the beach, go to beaches in El Rodadero. This part of town is not the best in safety and the beaches are dirty.
We had just 3 days at the Hotel Catedral Plaza and were SO disappointed to leave. The staff were all VERY friendly and accomodating. We were especially impressed with Gladys, a restaurant and bar server. Breakfast was impressive, with plenty of hot and cold choices - all included in the price. And what can I say about the pool? Absolute heaven - from places to sit to the amazing view!
The front desk staff have to be the rudest people that I’ve ever dealt with.
The bad: there is no bottled water in the room, no coffee maker, Direct Tv did not work.
The good: the people working on the 6 th floor are very nice, the pool is clean, the bed was comfy.
First impressions mean a lot and when you get treated like crap when you walk in and when you check out it leaves a bad impression. Please speak with the front seat staff, it really is a nice hotel. Just a few bad people working there.
Excellent customer service, the hotel team was super friendly and helpful. The hotel location is very convenient and has a lot of options of food and historic places to visit.
Hotel is located right in downtown Santa Marta and within walking distance to the beach and restaurants.
I would recommend this hotel to other travellers visiting this beautiful city.
