Experience the literary heritage of Sofitel Legend Santa Clara Cartagena. The hotel’s Gabriel García Márquez Hall is named after the Nobel-Prize winning author who is best known for the novel One Hundred Years of Solitude. García Márquez also wrote a book titled Of Love and Other Demons. The fictional story was inspired by his trip to the former convent of the Poor Clares in 1949. During that trip, García Márquez was invited to view the newly excavated crypt of Santa Clara, the same burial that is now preserved in the historic hotel.
