About this hotel
Sofitel Legend Santa Clara sits in Cartagena's walled Old Town, a 215-room luxury hotel housed in a restored 17th-century convent. The property blends colonial architecture with contemporary comfort, retaining the original stone cloisters and vaulted ceilings while adding a spa, restaurant, and bar. The layout preserves the building's spiritual history - rooms wrap around the courtyard where guests can move between modern amenities and centuries-old spaces without friction. External validation is strong: the hotel earned South America's Leading Hotel award at the World Travel Awards in 2025, and holds current status as a Forbes Travel Guide property in 2026. Cartagena's Old Town draws heritage travellers and couples seeking a manageable scale - not a resort, but a place to stay inside the city's best-preserved quarter.
