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 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 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 StatesI wish they had a spa facility,
The location was excellent and absolutely loved the decor. The bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in and loved the added touch of a Toto toilet, double vanity ans Ortigia bath products in our bathroom. The room was very spacious too! Not to mention the staff - simply excellent. Friendly and so helpful!! Everyone from the front desk staff, the waitstaff and the bellman - they made our stay so special.

PortugalSome staff at breakfast were not up to the standards of the hotel. I think a bit more training and all will be solved. On the last day we were having a sunset drink by the pool as we had a late flight and we were reminded that "we checked out already" by one of the reception staff. I found it not very nice, even if they apologized straight away and offered the drinks. It is minor things, we will return :)
This is a big 10. After 76 countries and many great hotels, this hotel is one of the best we ever stayedm nothing is too much trouble to them. They are nice and welcoming, room was very big, the place is romantic, and much better in real life than in pictures. It has great atmosphere, lounge music by the pool, sunset drinks on some days, minibar is complimentary, and a lot of nice surprises like this. I want to go back to Cartagena just to stay here again. Thank you very much for such a happy weekend.

We spend a week during November in the Hotel. We couldn’t ve chosen a better location. The Hotel is beautiful, it has been recently renovated in great taste and comfort. The rooms are spacious, warm and cozy. The staff is friendly and attentive. Being Cartagena an incredible place, if you add a stay in Casa Pestagua you are basically creating the perfect vacation. Five stars!!

NetherlandsThe prices could be adjusted to better reflect local prices and less European standards. Additionally, the restaurant could add more local dishes and improve the overall food quality. Lastly, be sure to come prepared for mosquitoes on the ground floor, although this is not just a problem at this hotel. Despite these minor issues, the location is truly enchanting and a perfect place to start or end your visit to Colombia.
This place is almost magical, you are indulged and treated as a royal the moment you put your first step at the entrance. The staff is super polite and guest friendly with an smile on their faces. A truly amazing location and experience at the heart of Cartagena. PS: The front desk team was exceptional, and Luis the bellboy went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Muchas gracias y hasta pronto Luis!

Great location, amazing and attentive staff, and all of the amenities you would expect from a 5-star hotel. An oasis in the middle of the walled city! They are also owned by the same company as Casa San Augustin and can help arrange Spa services there. Very happy with our stay and will definitely return!
