Inside the most historic luxury hotel in Cartagena, Colombia

Travel to Colombia from the U.S. has boomed in recent years, facilitated by a number of direct routes from several major U.S. airports to both Bogota and Cartagena. And many hotel groups are expanding their footprint in the region as a result. Sofitel recently both renovated one of its existing properties, the Sofitel Legend Santa Clara, and opened the doors to a new one, Sofitel Barú Calablanca Beach Resort.

The Sofitel Legend Santa Clara is considered by many to be one of the most iconic and historic properties in Cartagena. And many events that took place at the building where the Sofitel Santa Clara resides now had a direct effect over the city in the last 400 years. Also a popular frequent stay among royals and celebrities, the historic hotel has evolved to meet the modern needs of travelers, most clearly through the recent renovation of 25 guest rooms.
