Ananda Boutique Hotel

Ananda is an ancient Sanskrit word that means a state of deep satisfaction and happiness, and and a stay at this boutique hotel in the heart of Cartagena is sure to evoke such feelings.

The building dates from the 1700s and stone walls and archways and beautiful tiled floors give it plenty of old-world charm. There are 23 bright and spacious rooms, most of which look out over the courtyard. Dark wooden ceiling beams and furniture are complimented by crisp white linens and flashes of colour from the fabrics and furnishings. Some of the larger suites comes with private terraces overlooking the street.

Enjoy contemporary cuisine in the sophisticated restaurant, or choose to enjoy the warm Colombian evenings and dine on the terrace. There is an outdoor pool as well as a rooftop terrace with a Jacuzzi and day beds perfect for relaxing and enjoying a drink while gazing out across the rooftops.

You're ideally situated to explore the city, within walking distance of the main sights, galleries and restaurants. Just a few blocks from Santo Domingo Square, this is the perfect bolthole from which to discover this beautiful place.
