In Cartagena’s Getsemaní quarter, Hotel Capellán de Getsemaní is built around courtyards that reinterpret the neighbourhood’s colonial houses. Rooms and suites combine tiled floors, timber ceilings and carved details with a restrained contemporary palette, while balconies in selected categories overlook the internal gardens or surrounding streets. Clero Restaurant opens towards the courtyard, and the rooftop brings together a pool, bar and views across tiled roofs towards the old city. A compact spa sits within the property, but the strongest architectural moments remain the shaded arcades, water features and planted patios at its centre.
