Howard Johnson Hotel Versalles Barranquilla

The room was larger than I expected, excellent amenities, super restaurant, but above and beyond were the excellent people. The service was provided with friendliness and attention to care. I was impressed and enjoyed my stay very much.

The hotel room had dirty sheets and the beds were old and uncomfortable, and the staff was impolite. The worst part of my trip to Colombia was when I was forced to undergo a full-body X-Ray with no protection for my vital organs upon leaving the country, and that if I refused the government would place me in prison indefinitely until I complied. This was the worst experience I have ever had in any country in the world. Travelers beware. If you travel to Colombia, you WILL be forced to undergo a full body X-Ray with no protection for the vital organs, upon leaving.

A fantastic staff...very accomodating... room was so nice and spacious...renovated bathroom...great restaurant... terrific deal for the price. Highly recommended!!

I've been on lot of vacations and stayed in many hotels but this hotel was probably one of my favorites! The staff was so accommodating and were always very helpful when we had questions. The room was very beautiful and spacious. I will definitely be staying here again on my next trip to Barranquilla!!!!!

The location is very good and you have all kind of businesses, the cleanliness of the room, comfort and the quality of services are very good. this my second time staying at this hotel. I recommend this hotel, don't expect any luxury for the price.

Great value. Excellent breakfast. Slow checkin process.

This hotel is located in the heart of the city is surronded by all sort of stores and supermarkets. The rooms are from medium to large size and some of them come with a terrace. Breakfast is icluded, which consist of scramble eggs fresh fruit small bread coffee or tea. There is never a shortage of cabs that will take you to any part of town. Lots of air conditioning, small gym and a pool. I really enjoyed my stay at Howard Johnson Versalles Hotel.

The furniture looks a little mistreated but the service is amazing. Could not be better.

very satisfied with the room service, and other services

We arrived from our bus late at night and the hotel didn't have a record of our reservation (I am an expat living in Colombia and travel to Barranquilla frequently and am very familiar with the standards of service in Colombia). I showed the front desk clerk my confirmation and he insisted I email it to him or he couldn't do anything about it even though they did have vacancies. I asked to add a second adult to the room and he said he could not because that is not what the reservation from hotels.com said. He kept insisting to see my passport even though I have a cedula. He was rude and unaccommodating and spoke no English. I booked a suit. When we got to the room there was a king sized bed, and no other furnishings other than the t.v. The picture with my reservation showed a two room suite with a bar and furnishings in one room and the bed in another. There was a large Jacuzzi tub in the bathroom, but the jets didn't work. The common areas of the hotel are well kept including the pool area. Breakfast is not free it's a part of your booking fee. You are not allowed to enter with food or beverages from outside the hotel so you have to buy from the minibar because there is actually only one restaurant and it is open at meal times only. I wouldn't recommend tourists go walking around at night, take a cab to a restaurant and a cab back. Know that there is not a "make it right" attitude here if you don't get what you expected.
