Property Description

Cartagena's walled city is the pride of Colombia, this is where you will find Viajero Cartagena. Located in a unique colonial house in a colorful street full of flowers, balconies and near nature-filled plazas a couple blocks away.

Stay in shared dorms (some are female only) or, if you prefer, in private bedrooms. Start your day like any Colombian would, enjoying a hot cup of coffee with fresh fruit and more. Wander through the city, discover great restaurants in a laid-back town, and keep in mind, our bar opens at four, and our FREE DAILY ACTIVITIES such as salsa and dance lessons, or live music, start shortly after that! Join the fun, get ready to go dancing to authentic Latino clubs or to bars with electronic music!

The staff here is really great. The hostel arranges activities throughout the week for its guests which is nice. If you’re looking for a place with a party atmosphere this is definitely a place to stay. If you’re looking for some decent rest then I would recommend going elsewhere. The bar plays loud music up until 11pm. The walls are paper thin, so can hear people’s conversations go through the wee hours of the morning. The midnight noise rule seems to be wall art at best.

I wouldn’t stay here again. Staff were lovely. Check in took ages. Our dorm room door was broken so it wasn’t very cool in there. AC was off during the day. The courtyard is poorly designed and there is no air flow… it is unbearably hot in Viajero compared to the rest of the city! When I checked in I was given a bed that wasn’t clean. You’re not allowed to sit in the courtyard quietly in the evening. Bar doesn’t open for food until 4.
