Casa de Alba

Casa de Alba stands on Calle de los Santos de Piedra in El Centro, the heart of the Walled City. It is built for the occasion rather than the weekend: thirty guests across seven bedrooms and fifteen beds, with eight bathrooms, which puts a wedding party, a family reunion or a company offsite under one roof instead of scattered across three hotels. There is a pool, a spa area, and a rooftop that does what every rooftop in Cartagena is for at six in the evening. A professional bar and a lounge mean the party has somewhere to be that is not the bedrooms. It is one of a group of houses within the walls, each built around a pool, a proper bar and a room big enough to hold everyone at once. Rooms range from classic doubles to duplex suites.
