Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). 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 Wifi. 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 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 States of AmericaOur last night in the hotel there was a private party on the upper deck overlooking the pool. The music and guests were quite loud and didn't disperse until after 11:00pm. We had an early morning flight to catch, so it was impossible to get to sleep until much later than we'd hoped.
The breakfast was phenomenal. Concierge seervice was outstanding. Our room wasn't ready when we arrived for check-in, so the receptionist moved us to a finer room so we wouldn't have to wait after a long day of travel. We were thrilled with our upgraded room. The location of the hotel was perfect. The bed as comfortable as we've ever had when traveling.

United States of AmericaNothing loved it all
Everything! First THE STAFF! This hotel is not only in perfect location, amazing amenities, luxurious decorating and atmosphere/the staff was the most attentive and sincere I have ever experienced. They went above and beyond both before I arrived and while there. I especially want to mention GABRIEL in the concierge. He was beyond helpful in planning my time there by booking excursions, car to and from airport , lunch /dinner recommendations. Highly recommend this hotel. I checked out other hotels that I was thinking about and there is no comparison.

United KingdomThe hotel added on an extra £25per night general service charge (to be allocated across all staff) and a £5 a night insurance/security charge. I found that rather distasteful given the cost per night of the rooms. Has a smell of Rynair about it!
Located in the heart of old town so 5-15 mins walk from everything. Beautiful hotel with many features dating back centuries. Service is impeccable - smiley, helpful people everywhere with no expectation of a tip. Lovely pool area with nice and plentiful sun loungers. Amazing world-class restaurant at very reasonable price.

Netherlands- there is some noise due to the location but this is to be expected and would only wake a light sleeper - the service at times felt a bit impersonal but this was simply down to the size of the property - some bits of the property are showing their age. Broken signage, tiles, bathroom lights ect. Just needs a bit more maintenance. But for a property this old it’s generally in good shape.
- the hotel room was great and the property has lots of facilities - food was very good both breakfast and lunch - staff were friendly - location is great (right in the walled city)

The staff are exceptional and make you feel welcome. The breakfast buffet is amazing with so many tropical fruits to try. The pool is clean and great to do laps in. The garden is lovely to sit. The location makes accessing many of the local attractions. The junior suite with a balcony view of the pool and sea was very special. The Cano jewelry store was perfect. The whole experience is five stars.

United States of AmericaRooms are fine but modern and not in the historic section. Also, this isn’t unique to this hotel but having a thick down comforter on the beds in crazy when it’s so hot. I had turn the air conditioning up high just to avoid sweating all night.
An exceptional place: prime location above the old city wall and in a convenient but relatively quiet lication, beautiful historic property, helpful staff.

United KingdomGym was rather small with running machine looking at wall and not much equipment. Also they add on a bunch of tax and insurance on final bill (we didn’t read the small print on checking in and they didn’t mention it). We really didn’t need insurance as we have comprehensive travel Insurance.
Beautiful property in the heart of Cartagena old town with direct views of beach too (over the old town wall). Had two spacious rooms overlooking pool in newer part of hotel. Beds were unbelievably comfortable.
