Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomNoisy. I booked a room with views to the patio and swimming pool area, and I didn't get one. The room smells like dump, and early morning was some building work done, and it was quite noisy.
Location and good breakfast. The staff was very friendly too.

Hotel is very good. Beautiful historical building with nice rooms and pool in the middle. Staff was very nice and friendly. Breakfast was nice. Location is very good. One of the best and busiest places of the historical walled city. If you are thinking were to stay in walled city or in getsemani, my advice is to stay at walled city.

United StatesStaff was very friendly and helpful. Hotel was old. A/C worked great, but due to the age of the building and the humidity in Cartagena there was some mold. We were able borrow towels from the hotel for a day trip. The breakfast was ok. The location was phenomenal for being able to walk to restaurants, shopping, Getsemani, the docks, and the fort.

ColombiaNothing to add in terms of expectations. A suggestion would be to add a small complenentary item e.g. a bottle of water or a small chocolate as part of the welcome.
Excellent Breakfast. Glad I asked for a quiet room - the room I got was at the back so a lot quieter than being close to the street. Great location in the walled old town and close to everything. Loved the colonial architecture of the hotel. Well stocked mini-bar with decent prices.

SpainThe AC in the room made my throat itchy. No ventilation in the room, which worsens air quality. I would not recommend it to someone with respiratory allergies (like myself!).

IrelandThe TV in the room didn't work, we did tell staff about it and were told it would be fixed but it didn't happen during our stay. The hotel is also right across from a nightclub and very noisy until late at night. The water in the shower wasn't always hot.
The location of the hotel is fantastic, surrounded by restaurants and within walking distance to the beach. The breakfast options were excellent, different kinds of eggs, fruits and pastries. The room itself was nice and spacious, really good AC. Our room also had a balcony with beautiful views of the street. The staff were very helpful and nice.

SwitzerlandAll in all the experience was good. Is a small hotel in the center of Cartagena but with the needed facilities.
Perfect location in the middle of Cartagena. Near to the clock tower, where many tours and the red bus are. The staff is very friendly. I recomment to book directly with the hotel a tour and not from the streets, I saw people not getting what they paid for.
