Very good location with access to beach two blocks away. One block from main road with tons of restaurants and shopping malls. Hotel was very good value for the price. Jesus at front desk provided very good customer service. Will definitely be returning next time staying in Cartagena.

an amazing hotel… unless you get room 101
We had our first night in what seemed to be the worst room of the hotel (room 101) and thankfully were able to change into a much better room the next day thanks to the very helpful staff. That first room shouldn’t exist especially for this price and it is a shame that they dare put customers in it, especially when the rest of the hotel is so nice. The pool is perfect, the breakfast is delicious, staff is very kind and helpful, hotel is in a very convenient area, the only minus would be how the noise gets inside the rooms easily from early morning. I think I would recommend this hotel if i didn’t have the experience of being put in room 101 the first day, for without that, it was great.

This property is photographed well, however the rooms are very small, the bed was uncomfortable and old, the pool was nice, but it closes at 6, the check in staff (Sebastian) was very unhelpful and a bit rude. The rest of the staff was pretty nice, the cleaning staff was especially kind and did an excellent cleaning job on the room. The maintenance staff was also good as my ac went out a few times as well as the water. The area has lots of stores, buses, taxis and traffic, so if you are looking for a quiet area this is not it. The beach is a close walk so that helps, but be ready for many peddlers selling you everything, every second and for an added annoyance, you have to pay for chairs to sit in at the beach. The food at TAC downstairs was delicious and the service was great. I would never stay at this hotel again.

I have stayed in Bocagrande 6 times and great community. First time staying at Blue Concept. Do not stay here. They will not provide clean linen daily. There free breakfast is the restaurant making the portions and refusing to give more and it was all inclusive. The hotel is having construction done and did not inform on the site or during check in. Lastly they refused to give ice and wanted to charge for it. Possibly worse hotel in Bocagrande
