Hotel Don Pedro de Heredia

0 1 2 3 4

Located within the walls of the old town, the Don Pedro is small rustic property, perfect for exploring Cartagena.

This modest property of 34 guest rooms has a convenient location within the walled city, close to the top sights and a grocery store, all within walking distance. There’s a rustic air to the place, with bougainvillea clinging to the walls, exposed brick, tiled roves and polished wooden balconies. All the compact bedrooms have efficient air-conditioning, personal safe, hair-dryer and TV. There is a small outdoor pool and a rooftop solarium and terrace where a buffet breakfast is offered.
