We cannot speak highly enough of the assistance we received from the staff of 3 Banderas in our time of need. We arrived having left our passports, phone, visas and credit cards in a taxi. Our stupidity. We thought our holiday was over. During the next 2 days, the wonderful English-speaking staff- especially Mayra - made numerous phone calls for... More

We stayed here in January. GREAT value,. beautiful little hotel with a lovely rooftop patio, right by all the action but still down a quiet street. The rooms were beautiful and the staff were really friendly. They had delicious breakfast in the am and the best coffee I have ever had! I would definitely recommend this place!

We stayed at 3Banderas for nine days altogether. The rooms were comfortable and clean (our first room lacked some place to hang clothes). The staff was friendly and helpful. I particularly liked breakfast and our server, got our day off to a good start! The public areas are very nice. I recommend!

I stayed in this hotel for 5 nights in late February. It was a lovely property and the staff was very nice and helpful, but I doubt I would stay there again for the reason stated in my headline. Pros: 1) Location! I loved the location of 3 Banderas. It's on a very pretty, quiet block situated between two plazas... More

Dear Puppimus, Thank you for your wonderful review. It was our pleasure to have had you with us. We have appreciated all the pros you have listed which is good for the team to hear but most importantly of all, the cons. Our hotel does not have a pool yet but it will in the future.

This hotel in the old town of Cartagena couldn’t be better located, with lovely courtyards bursting with flowers and plants. But, then there are the rooms, which are very spartan with inconsistent air conditioning (we had ours attended to 3 times in 3 days), and no chairs (we had to sit on the beds). And, as with other hotels I... More

This is a pretty little hotel perfectly located in the walled city. I wanted to like it more than I did. As pleasant as it was, the service and oversight were just a little lackadaisical. As if the management was offsite. For example, some days there were washcloths, some days not. No glasses in the room. Bedding consisted of two... More

Hotel is in a nice central location but rooms are tiny- nowhere to hang clothes and more to the point, no hot water. However breakfast considerably better than the other hotels on our tour ( Explore). However the central location I guess compensates for much of this.
