HOTEL Charleston Santa Teresa
History & Story
At the heart of one of the world’s most beautiful cities, the Santa Teresa hotel combines colonial Spanish influences with Colombian Caribbean multicultural flair to offer a uniquely special experience for guests. Housed within one of Cartagena’s most historically significant buildings, dating back to the late 16th century, it has stood the test of time during which the city has been transformed from a strategic Caribbean port to the jewel in Colombia’s tourism crown and, indeed, one of the top places to visit in all of South America.
