Hotel in zona CENTRO COMERCIAL La 50, Barranquilla

This hotel was completely disgusting, full of mould and damp throughout the hotel. The restaurant floor appeared not to have been cleaned for many months as the dirt was really ground in, the nets and curtains were also mouldy and filthy too. We had to change rooms twice due to the fact that my husband was struggling to breath due too the conditions. The gym was completely filthy and the breakfast was the same each day, and they did not have anything Vegan for me either. There was nothing nice about this hotel. The restaurant menu was dreadful, old and uninviting. The staff were slow to respond to any asks. The bath had obvious cracks in it, however they had just been painted over. This hotel needs a lot of money spent on it to firstly address the mould and damp issues. The replies to the reviews from the hotel stated that they were in the process of completing some maintenance work, almost 2 years ago, however this place has not been touched in any aspect for many, many years! AVOID THIS HOTEL IF YOU DON'T WANT TO POTENTIALLY BECOME ILL!! This hotel is down as a 3/4 star, but 1.5 at the very best. I have always been fair around my reviews, so for me to write this, it was absolutely dire 😔

Faranada colletion Barranquilla definitivamente superó mis expectativas, el hotel es muy hermoso, sus camas extremadamente comodas, la calides y amabilidad del equipo se sintieron desde el check in hasta el check out, siempre dispuestos a servir y hacer sentir al huésped especial, shirly, zamir, Nayla y Alexandra fueron super atentos y sonrientes en todo momento, espero regresar pronto y volver a disfrutar de este magnífico hotel.

Dopo aver soggiornato più di una settimana in hotel mediocre come turista, questo Ibis è un'intera sollievo. Ritorno alle norme europee con un moderno hotel design e camere moderne, buffet colazione, così tutto si può mangiare, invece del piccolo colazione nella maggior parte del B&B. Situato vicino a un grande centro commerciale moderno. La stanza standard è ok con una buona bagno, un letto un po' troppo duro e il più grande sfondo non si può aprire una finestra, che è notabile nelle vie, anche un particolare odore come non ci sono mai aria fresca che entra. Parcheggio interno gratuito disponibile, buon WiFi.

Ottimo sito e servizio. Siamo andati per un matrimonio. Lo consiglio al 100%

This was a large group that was planned for more than a year. We had over 45 people planning to stay in the hotel along with a planned party that was up on the 13th floor for 45 people and was an absolute nightmare! Management was quick to take my $$ for the food and set up of of the party. They were SO understaffed and ill prepared it very soon turned into a complete nightmare and disappointment. With more than 45 people at the party music was great and one bartender the staff had no idea, nor did they have the ability to correct it. I had more than three of my friends trying to at least pay their tab, but their equipment was not sufficient to take payment. It also took hours for that to be corrected, but I also went down to talk to Management and i found two 20 year-old girls were explaining to me that they were running the hotel yet they were on the phone trying to find somebody to help them and no ability to correct the situation. was extremely disappointed to find a hotel that was Supposedly of great caliber destroyed and ruined my wife’s 60th birthday along with her family that were born and raised here in Barranquilla. I later found many of the people at the party had the informed me that the bar tender upstairs ran out of alcohol, and was not only shorting drinks, but not putting any alcohol in a lot of them. we later confirm that as we found 1/3 of the party was downstairs in the front bar drinking as nobody had any alcohol and their drinks upstairs. needless to say, I’m extremely disappointed as we own property here in this city, and to bring 45 friends from the states to enjoy the culture atmosphere and ambience. It’s just disgusting to have such an incredible night ruined my managements, inability to prepare and service the party that we paid. I would strongly recommend not to ever come here with a party of any caliber or service that is needed as they were not capable to even correct the problem that’s what really ******. please note this is not what I do. I am just so disappointed as we love this city and it’s a shame to bring so many friends to a place where we were spending good money for them to enjoy just to be kicked in the face by two young girls that had no ability to cure or solve the problem. there are many other fine hotels in this city. If you’re gonna spend any fair amount of money, I would please shop around as I would not come to the Crowne Plaza ever.

We only stayed one night but the staff did EVERYTHING to make it great. When we checked in I explained we would be leaving at 5am and therefor would miss breakfast and therefor not have my much needed coffee. They went into action and had a coffee machine delivered to my room and had coffee ready. GREAT service! good location and very comfortable room. Gracias por todos

If you are looking for luxury as befits this chain (and other similar chains) in the US, you will be hard pressed to find it here. While a very nice hotel, it rates about one star less by U.S. standards. That said, I do think it is one of the better hotels in the city, and though I was not initially too impressed, my favor has grown in comparison to other disappointing hotel stays I've experienced in Barranquilla. The value is good for the price. I would stay here again as it is easily 1/4 of the price of the few hotels offering a higher quality stay. The rooftop pool was one of the draws for this hotel. Unfortunately, it was closed the night we were there. I think maybe they had just super chlorinated it because the water was slightly murky. It is a nice pool, though shallow, like all BAQ hotel pools. However, unlike many hotels in this city, the size of the pool did match the online photos. The room was large and the bedding was crisp and clean. The beds were more comfortable than the usual hard beds in Colombia. The mini fridge and the A/C worked well, as did the Wi-Fi. The room / floor was quiet. The buffet breakfast was good - not fantastic - but good. Several hot dishes, breads, muffins, juices, coffee, etc. The hotel is in Riomar, a nice area, but a bit far from the center of town...a good 4 or 5km away, which is a 20-25 minute drive. Easy for drivers to get confused with the GHL Hotel Barranquilla across the street, or the GH Hotel Barranquilla near downtown, or even the Hotel NH Collection Barranquilla downtown. The Buenavista Mall is nearby with eateries and bars, but it is not really walkable. A 20 minute walk in the heat of the day is rather far, and it's not very recommendable to walk too far at night if you don't live there. 6min ride. **Side note: Uber is not available in Barranquilla. Here, they use the app, InDriver. Taxis are cheap, though.
