Sofitel Legend Santa Clara Cartagena

Built in 1621, our property was originally a convent that housed the Poor Clares before they were evicted in 1861. For over a century, this place witnessed history and served successively as a charity hospital, prison and medical school therefore generating a series of Republican style changes. In 1995, it became the iconic Santa Clara hotel. Construida en 1621, nuestra propriedad era originalmente un convento albergando la Orden de las Clarisas.

airbnb has great options within the walled city (historic city) and all budget types. We recommend googling the wedding venue to stay as close as possible but any place within the walled city is at most a 12 minute walk. airbnb tiene muy buenas opciones dentro de la ciudad amurallada y para diferentes presupuestos.

Travel Note

Taxis

If you opt for taking a taxi once you arrive to Cartagena; we highly recommend booking the transfer from one of the designated kiosks at the airport. You will see them once you've cleared customs and before exiting the airport. They will give you a fixed rate and assign a taxi, transfer should be around $12.000-$15.000 COP. Most taxis will only accept cash, we encourage exchanging USD to COP before leaving the U.S.. We recommend doing this 2-3 weeks before the trip to make sure you can get the currency on time.
