“Perfectly clean hotel, amicable staff, exceptionally nice and perfect location close to everything. Location near multiple restaurants, casinos, clubs, and Bocagrande. Nearby Guadalupe by Mimi is a great place to chill out.”

8.2Verified guest

“The location was great, relatively near Bocagrande beaches. I appreciated the room with a spacious outdoor patio, and my bed was good.”

8.2Verified guest

“We had a great time at Hotel Millennium! I'm not sure why there are such bad reviews for this place. It is relaxing and peaceful, and it's great to be able to go into a quiet hotel and feel like you're the only people staying there. The streets and beaches in Cartagena are so busy, and this is a perfect hotel to get away from it all. Room service is very punctual, and every day they make your bed and will change your sheets if requested. Free breakfast is great—enough food to get you ready for a big day. I would definitely stay here again.”
