Very clean, perfect location .. walking distance to all the main attractions, coffee shops, downtown attractions. Traditional breakfast was included and quite delicious. Was disappointed.. Web does not state parking is available & we were not informed that it was available until an hour before check in .. we were already on our way in an uber.

I had a wonderful stay at Cardedeu in the Historic Center. The hotel has a perfect balance of modern comfort and the charm of the historic district. The rooms were clean, stylish, and very comfortable, and the staff went above and beyond to make the stay welcoming. I especially appreciated the location. The atmosphere felt safe and relaxing, and the common areas were beautifully designed. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, and the service was consistently attentive. I would highly recommend Cardedeu Historic Center to anyone visiting San Salvador who wants both convenience and comfort with a touch of boutique elegance.

Very nice property with wonderful customer service and ideal location! We enjoyed walking around the evening we stayed there. We felt very safe and found a fun place to eat and toured both the National Palace and Library - highly recommend both! This hotel is literally on the front row to all of the amazing progress El Salvador is making. I found this part of the trip very inspirational.

Beautiful hotel, staff was friendly and helpful. Parking access is a little far and I would suggest a cart for luggage. Also a generator for hotel when they lose power. We lost power on two occasions so probably happens often. I would definitely come back here and highly recommend it.
