Selina Cartagena Reviews

Selina Cartagena -- the Cartagena edition of the famous Central and South America hostel chain -- follows the style of all the other Selinas, with great facilities and a look that seems more of a hotel than a hostel.

The Location

Selina Cartagena is located in the neighborhood of Getsemani, near the nightlife area of Cartagena. To reach the hostel from the bus station it is about thirty minutes with taxi. The historical center of the town is nearby and it requires only a ten-minute walk. Around the hostel you can find restaurants, bars, and a supermarket. It is close to the main bars of Cartagena, so it is convenient for travelers as they don’t need a taxi but can just walk.

Rooms and Bathrooms

Similar to the other Selinas, the quality of rooms and mattresses is very high. It offers private rooms and dorms, and all the facilities are great. Each bed has its own plug for electricity and a personal light, plus the rooms are quite spacious so it is possible to move around. Bathrooms are located inside some of the rooms, and outside as well to be shared with the entire hostel. Cleanliness is taken seriously and everything always appears clean.

Common Spaces

Common spaces are the best part of any Selina hostel, but especially in Cartagena -- together with nice common areas with sofas and tables, there is a rooftop pool where guests can enjoy and relax. The rooftop is very big, and even though it doesn’t offer a spectacular view of the city, it is a place that attracts guests to read, chill, drink, and socialize. It has a bar, so during the evening it attracts guests for a drink. Cartagena is a very hot city so many guests like to go to the pool to cool down. Many activities such as yoga are arranged on the rooftop. The vibe of the hostel could vary a lot depending on the customers. As a matter of fact, it is not a party hostel but more like a place to have a quiet time, relax, and enjoy the sun. However, the rooftop pool is also a place where some customers drink and pre-party so they can turn the environment into a party one.

Summary

It is a high-quality stay, for those travelers that like to combine a backpacking style with a bit of fashion and a comfortable sleep.
