Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomIt states to be 4* hotel but in fact it’s 3* at best (actually on google maps it says 3*). Breakfast is really really poor and in very tiny portions. Pillows are very uncomfortable and the facilities in general are nowhere near to 4* hotel.
The staff are friendly but and it has parking. But this is these are the only advantages

SpainMy stay at Hotel Salento Real was disappointing, considering the high price. The breakfast was poor despite the restaurant's good food later in the day. The reception staff were unhelpful and inflexible, notably refusing to allow a friend to temporarily store luggage. Noise was a major issue; the rooms lack soundproofing, making it easy to hear neighbors and nearby club music until 2 am on Fridays. The staff seemed indifferent to complaints about noise. Overall, the service and facilities did not match the cost, making it a less-than-ideal experience.
Overpriced.

United StatesProperty was a little tired. Plants needed care. Fountain didn’t work or wasn’t on. Accent lights were never on. The courtyard has a loud echo, if guests don’t honor quiet times or move to the lobby, they can wake other guests.
Clean, comfortable.

United KingdomIt was more basic than the pictures suggested and was more of a chain hotel feel than something more boutique which was what we were expecting.
The room had lots of storage space, shower was warm (not always a given in Colombia!) and the room was clean.

United KingdomNot good noise insulation, we could hear people from the patio and the rooms next door. Not very clean, we had to ask for the bedsheets to be changed as they were dirty. After the first day going out of the hotel and when we returned to the room, we realised that personal toiletries were missing from our washing bag. It was reported and nothing happened, no action was taken from the staff or further communication regarding the issue.
Good location, near the central streets of Salento.

United StatesI'm not really one to make bad reviews but it is necessary to comment on the nightmare caused by the reception of the Real Salento Hotel, I come for a walk through Pereira and Salento and as a foreigner I am exempt from paying IVA (tax) the reservation made on booking.com includes Therefore, the hotel is supposed to NOT charge IVA at the time of check-in. Not even showing them the passport with the Colombian Immigration entry stamp was enough for the hotel representative to exclude me from IVA. and they charged me without hesitation, I have considered myself in two other hotels and they did not charge me the IVA turning to the issue of toilets, which are the towels and the bed linen are so used that instead of being white they already look yellow from so much use, they have no control over the children who play throughout the hotel without respecting that there are people sleeping even at 7am in short it is a nightmare to go through the Salento real hotel Eje cafetero.
