La Matuna is an exceptional choice for anyone seeking a fulfilling experience in the vibrant areas of Getsemaní and Cartagena’s historic walled city, all while enjoying the serene ambiance La Matuna offers. The staff are outstanding—exceptionally friendly, courteous, and quick to address any concerns, ensuring a truly comfortable stay. The cleanliness throughout the hotel is impeccable, and the meals are consistently excellent, adding a delightful culinary experience to the stay. And the vibe – it’s unparalleled! The ambiance here radiates a laid-back, relaxed, and chilled energy, making it easy to unwind and fully enjoy my time. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and am already looking forward to my next visit. La Matuna has certainly set a high standard for my future stays in Cartagena.

The location is good, but I had too many issues, with noise and water. The room wasn't ready on time and when I did check in, there was food in the room from the previous guest. Also the visitor policy is far too strict, even if I was coming back to the room in the middle of the day to change or charge my phone, a guest was not permitted up unless you pay an extra 100,000 pesos. The shower head broke during my stay, and the first couple days there were issues with the water. I asked for a quiet room, I was put in the first floor. I asked to change on check in and they did nothing. Overall with so many issues, not with the price with so many other options in Cartagena. I didn't try the restaurant because the selection was small and overpriced. The lobby bar is also about 3x the price of items elsewhere.

Mood Marina is a great place to stay in the Matuna neighborhood. It's centrally located, being within walking distance to the park, the clocktower, and some great food and shopping options. While it's still under some minor onstruction, you can tell it's going to be a great hotel.

Great New Hotel located in the middle of all the places you want to be. Great staff and the lattes at reception are the best in Colombia! The room was large and spacious. There is a gym, it is small but you can definitely get your sweat on. I will return to this hotel and would recommend to family and friends

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Mood Matuna Hotel in beautiful Cartagena, Colombia, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm hospitality by the staff, who went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. The check-in process was smooth and efficient. The hotel is going through changes and remodeling so it was very noisy in the morning hours. My room was spacious, impeccably clean, modern and simple. The comfortable beds provided a restful night's sleep after a day of exploring the city. The room needed an extra trash can and some shelves in the bathroom for toiletries and clothes. The location of Mood Matuna is perfect for exploring the historic walled city. Many attractions, including the iconic Castillo San Felipe and vibrant Plaza Santo Domingo, are just a short stroll away. The hotel also provided helpful recommendations for local restaurants and activities, which made my trip even more enjoyable. Overall, my stay at Mood Matuna Hotel was nothing short of magical. The combination of excellent service, beautiful accommodations, and prime location makes it an ideal choice for anyone visiting Cartagena. I can’t wait to return to this gem of a hotel on my next trip!

I switched hotels from Bocagrande to here because I wanted to be able to walk everywhere. Its right across from the Centanario Park. 2 blocks from the clock tower and action. The area is pretty safe. The room was great as was the oversized AC unit (which youre gonna need). There isn't a pool at this hotel and it isn't the type of place if youre looking to party. I'd describe it as a more upscale family, or couples, hotel where it's quiet. There are higher end hotels in the area, but it's going to be tough to beat the value of this place at under $100 a night when some of those other options are double the price.

The room was beautiful. Recently remodeled, it is large, modern and well appointed. There are towels, but no wash cloths. The entire room has tile floors, including tne bathroom and shower. The bath and shower becomes EXTREMELY slipper when wet. There are not anti-slip mats or grab bars. Bring rubber shower shoes. A/C works great. There is patio with great street views. Lots of interesting, fun shops in area. Very friendly, very safe.
