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 KingdomThe downside and this was a big one for us is that it is extremely noisy. The hotel is surrounded by open air bars and the street on the side of it has street vendors with speakers playing till 3/4am every night. We had an internal facing room and sadly we didn't sleep at all the three nights we were there, which is the main reason we haven't scored this hotel as an excellent. If you ask for an additional card key they charge you which is a little odd for a programmed card key. The breakfast was great but there were no menus out so on our first day we didn't realise we could order anything other than the cereal and fruit that was out on the bar. We ended up asking the staff after seeing other guests with plates of food. It would be nice if they handed you a menu and explained when you sat down or maybe left it on the table.
The hotel is beautiful, much nicer than the pictures and the rooms are very clean, it definitely exceeded our expectations. The staff are polite and friendly, the breakfast was very good and the rooftop space is great. The location is right in the heart of the old town so next to everything.

GermanyYou have to be really aware that you are in the absolut center of nightlife!
If you want to be in the vivid center of Getsemani it's the right place to be. We had a double room with Queensize Bed big windows and a balcony. The room is very nice and spacious. As the famous Havanna Bar is oposite of the hotel you should go there for dancing till late!:) If not, the good, but extremely lood music till 4o'clock in the morning makes it difficult to sleep.

United KingdomYou just need to realise that Cafe Havana makes a lot of noise, so go over and party and only try to sleep after the party! Or you could try earplugs!
An oasis with lovely inner courtyard and great rooftop area. The room I had was amazing. Beautifully decorated, lovely bathroom and great balcony overlooking Cafe Havana

My sister and I really enjoyed our stay at Soy local insignia. It is located in the heart of Gestemani - a fantastic location. Given the location of the hotel, it gets quite noisy at in the evening - we didn't mind this too much. The hotel staff were friendly and allowed us to leave our bags at the hotel as we arrived before check-in and let use their toilet facilities and enjoy a welcome drink at their terrace bar. The hotel décor and room were beautiful! I would highly recommend this hotel.

United StatesThe breakfast was inconsistent. Some days the omelet was cooked one way and some days it was cooked a different day. There was no hot water in the hotel. Maybe it stated that somewhere and I just didn't see it. If that is the case, then it is my bad. The tv stations didn't work either.
The location was excellent. The staff was attentive and the entire hotel was absolutely beautiful and very clean. I loved the rooftop pool and bar. The bed was really comfortable.

Italy- we found out there was no hot water in the shower only after checking in (not a big deal since it’s hot in Cartagena but still worth knowing in advance) - music from the streets (we guessed we couldn’t get where exactly it was coming from) went on uninterrupted through the whole night until the morning
- the room was perfect although with no windows - toilet was perfect and came with towels and nice complimentary toiletries - all looked super clean - breakfast on the terrace was fine
