Reviews for Sofitel Legend Santa Clara Cartagena
A lovely evening at Jardin de Santa Clara
Victor and Vanessa's service was so good that I had to question why I didn't book at stay at the hotel. The food was excellent. I ordered the guava pork ribs and coconut rice and I can safely tell you that it was the best thing I ate throughout my trip.

The perfect week in Cartegena’s Caribbean Old Town
The Sofitel Legend Santa Clara has amazing staff, historical setting, and superb cuisine! The impeccable service made us feel instantly at home, especially Yordys Franco, Jose Manuel, and Bernardo went the extra mile to remember our names, the fact it was my wife’s birthday, and tried to make every interaction extra special. The concierge recommendations for El Deposito coffee and El Arsonal: the rum box helped us with memorable food and cultural experiences. Ivan from room service and housekeeping staff tried to anticipate every need imaginable. We will be back! Highly recommend

Fabulous
Stayed here for four nights in January and had an exceptional experience. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The staff is outstanding in every area of this hotel from check-in to the bar to the spa to the pool. I loved the huge breakfast buffet each morning on the terrace with birds singing and delicious treats. The ambiance is superb and the location the best. I will definitely return.
