About
Casa Be Getsemani
The name may say Be Getsemani, but guests slip into the spirit of the neighborhood from the moment they arrive. This 3-star stay sits on Calle San Antonio, just off the busiest stretch of Getsemani's cobblestone streets, with the lively Trinidad Square and the commercial bustle of the walled city both within a short walk. A sun deck and a garden with a banana tree and a fountain give it a quiet, leafy core.
Rooms are simple but comfortable, with air conditioning and housekeeping keeping things cool and tidy. The breakfast spread is a highlight for many — eggs cooked to order, fresh fruit, toast and coffee are served in the courtyard. Staff are consistently praised for being friendly and helpful, whether arranging early taxis or offering tips on the area.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Location is the standout — Guests consistently highlight the hotel's position just off the main strip of Getsemani, with bars, restaurants, and the Plaza de la Trinidad a short walk away, and the old city about 10 minutes on foot.
- Breakfast is a daily highlight — The included breakfast is frequently praised for its variety and quality — eggs cooked to order, fresh fruit, toast, and coffee — served in the courtyard or dining area.
- Friendly and helpful staff — The team earns consistent praise for going out of their way — arranging early morning taxis, providing area tips, and making guests feel welcome.
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Value score is the weakest point — While the hotel rates well overall, the 7.8 guest score for value suggests some travelers find the price-to-experience ratio a little less compelling than other aspects.
- Check-in is limited to daytime hours — Arrivals are only accepted between 14:00 and 22:00, which could be restrictive for late flights or evening arrivals.
- No parking on site — Car parking is off-site, so those driving in will need to plan for a separate parking arrangement, which may not be immediately adjacent.

Getting around Cartagena
The property sits in Cartagena.
Around the hotel: Getsemani is Cartagena's most dynamic neighborhood, known for its street art, live music, and buzzing plazas. The hotel sits just a short walk from Plaza de la Trinidad, where locals and travelers gather in the evenings.
Getting to the old city: The Clock Tower Monument, the main gateway to the walled city, is about a 10-minute walk from the hotel. From there, you can wander the historic streets, shops, and restaurants lined with colonial architecture.
