It's ok
Bed was a good size for double, one hard pillow and one very soft pillow could do with review. Aircon cold, next to no hot water. Bathroom had mould in shower. I recommend a chair and bin be input into the large room (plenty of space for bags) outside of the bin in the bathroom. Door lock was push button lock. We were on the ground floor and had little protection from noise and light via the one window. Ok for price but should be a wee bit cheaper in my opinion. Breakfast was ok, rooftop hammocks were nice.

This is a three star hotel, not four and a half! It’s a quaint boutique hotel with small rooms and not luxurious in the least. The staff is fantastic, the pool is nice and the breakfast and coffee were good. The water temperature in the shower is lukewarm, definitely not hot. We had two maintenance issues with clogged drains in the shower and bathroom sink and they were fixed promptly. Make sure you bring your own shampoo, etc because none is provided. The location of the hotel is excellent and it’s an interesting old building.

Great Place, Great Staff, Great Location!
Great place with very friendly, professional, and attentive staff. Felt comfortable before I even walked in the door as the lobby view from the street is pleasant and open. Breakfast and coffee were delicious and made to order. Has a bit of the social feel of a hostel while retaining the service, privacy, and convenience of a hotel. It was also right next to the best restaurants in the city and the beach. Would definitely stay again.

If you are looking for a great stay look no further then the Orange House Hotel. Mario and Jefferson are usually the guys that welcome you and these guys optimize what customer service is all about.

Volvería sin problema
El centro de Santa Marta está muy bonito y este hotel esta ubicado muy bien. Se puede caminar por los alrededores sin problema. Las personas del hotel son muy amables. Esto enamora al huésped. El desayuno está bien. Ofrecen agua y café 24 horas al día. Excelente detalle. No me gustó la piscina, ni el bar arriba, porque fumaban mucho. Así sea al aire libre no debería permitirse fumar allí. Volvería sin problema a hospedarme allí. Se debe revisar la ducha del baño, porque se acumula agua y así mismo los oscurecedores de la habitación, porque están puestos al revés. No tiene ascensor, así que si tienen equipaje voluminoso deben subir dos o tres pisos por la escaleras, eso no está tan bien. Si no desean subir escaleras, deben pedir que su habitación sea en el primer piso.
