Babies swimming pool 😀
Friendly staff and ok service. Small rooms and old furniture. Not comfortable. On the photo the swimming pool looks large, but in reality it’s more like 2 by 4 meters. It is next to a restaurant where the music is played loud all the time.

The windows were small and high up with no view.
Good shower. Copious breakfast on a pleasant terrace. A small but near swimming pool was a bonus.

Good place for a stop over in Santa Marta
We stayed ar Hotel San Miguel Imperial between trips to Taganga and Ciudad Perdida. The room for four we firstd was a bit small, but we then were given a larger one on the second floor. The rooftop swimming pool and surrounding lounging area are a welcoming respite from the busy pedestrian central area, only 8 blocks away. Very helpful reception staff. Three blocks away from supermarkets and cash machines. Good air conditioner! Great value for money.

No working air con, rough location
The ladies at reception were very friendly... this is the good part of the review. Our room had only one towel and one power outlet which was currently lighting two lamps. The breakfast had hot milk for the cereal and mostly unappetizing and minimal fruits/meats. I had one of the worst sleeps in a room with no air or fan to speak of. The rooms echo considerably and you can hear everything in the hallways... every door slam or conversation. That night children ran unfettered screaming for hours which was beyond frustrating. They offered to give us a room with two separate beds the next day (we are a couple) but that is not how i wanted to spend our vacation so I asked to check out. Considering we paid for 5 days in advance I asked for one day to be refunded for the night of no aircon... they refused. Don’t be fooled by the nice pics, and it’s definitely not in a great location... unless you like cemeteries.

Not recommended, not clean hotel, no hot water
Staff were trying their best to be helpful but the hotel needs serious updating. No hot water, only 1 towel for 2 people, water from taps was black and showers very poor flow. Can't understand booking.com rating of 8.4 in 2015. Breakfast is slow and not good. Seems like same staff working in a number of roles that they are not trained for

Centrally Located Hotel
This hotel is in a good location with a/c. The area is pretty quiet and the rooms are clean. It's a nice place to sleep, but there is nothing above and beyond the basics. For the price, it's convenient. I would stay here again, but do not expect a lot if you stay here.

Good for the price for a day or two
Hotel was clean and as I expected for the price. In the center of Santa Marta, not far from the beach or Parque novios. No hot showers but that is very common. Staff were helpful and friendly. Some of them speak and understand English.

Great hotel stop-over in Santa Marta
Couldn't fault my stay at San Miguel Imperial. We arrived late but they were ready to check us in. Complimentary breakfast was welcome. Wi-Fi fast. And they allowed us to store our luggage free of charge while we completed the Lost City hike. Well recommended quick base in Santa Marta.

Close to touristic historic center and beach
The hotel was comfortable though basic. It is located next to a bar so there was significant noise outside the hotel on Saturday night that could be heard (muffled) from the rooms. Friendly service, but apparently didn't charge my card the night we arrived and forced my husband to return to the hotel to pay in cash after dropping me off at the airport. Great breakfast of eggs, toast, juice, coffee and fruit. Located walking distance from a section with many tourist oriented businesses and restaurants and the beach.
