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.).

CanadaUnfortunately, sound travels to the room very easily. You can hear everything that is going on outside of your room making it hard to fall asleep at night.
The location was great! It's not too far from the center of La Fortuna and the view from the room is amazing. You can see the Arenal volcano very clearly.

United KingdomMy room unfortunately didn't have a proper window I can open and had bars on the window with very little light (I took a Standard, but the other rooms with balconies Im sure are very very nice on that front!). One other thing: I asked for extra eggs for breakfast and got charged $4.. which is quite a lot. Also, they charge a very high price to do the laundry, I would recommend going a few steps down the street to a local Lavanderia El Almendro, for a fraction of the price and very quick. Other than that the stay was very nice! I would go again
I had a great stay at La Fortuna Lodge by Treebu Hotels! The location is very central (but at the same time away from the main street at La Fortuna so is very peaceful), the hotel is nice and modern, and the staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. They serve delicious breakfasts as well!

United KingdomHad a fantastic stay here. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. From an easy check in to organising breakfast to helping book tours, they were always kind and attentive. The room was lovely, with a patio and a magnificent view of Mt Arenal. The location was perfect, quiet but adjacent to all the restaurants, shops and bars. I hope to visit again and recommend a stay here.

United StatesThis lodge is located within 3ish blocks of La Fortuna's main plaza - which is a great location because you are close to everything, but you don't hear all of the noise (3 blocks makes a big difference). The room we stayed in had a beautiful balcony that faced the volcano, and while the clouds kept the volcano hidden for most of our visit, we saw tucans in the treetops from the balcony and had a wonderful view of the town. The bed was comfortable and the room was spotless. Each night we selected a time to eat breakfast the next day and selected from 4 different breakfast options - we tried them all, and they were all superb. All in all, we loved everything about this lodge and would definitely stay here again.

CanadaThe rooms are small and not much closet space for storage. It was a bit frustrating to have to buzz to get back in and also to go out but it must be for security.
La Fortuna Lodge has a great location, close to shops, restaurants , laundry and activities. The lodge has a fantastic view of Arenal volcano. The large shared open air patio was a highlight. The rooms are nice but small so the patio was great . Lots of different areas to watch the many birds in the trees or the ever changing clouds around Arenal . The sink and kitchen area were a popular place to prepare a snack . It was great to visit with other travelers. The breakfast selection was really nice and I enjoyed all the offerings. The staff were pleasant and helpful.

SwedenWe liked our stay very much but if I were to say something would be: This hotel has more of a urban feel to it so I recommend staying here only if you want a comfortable place to sleep and go to do the tours during the day or if you want to stay within the city. In the region there are other options of hotels that have swimming pool, spa, etc which is a different vibe so it really depends on what you want. Also, we were supposed to have a volcano view but we didnt because it was cloudy :( But of course the accommodation does not have to do with it, it seems like it is pretty common to have this kind of weather there.
We loved our stay! The location is very central, within walking distance to the center and supermarkets, restaurants, etc. Yet it is on a calm road so not very noisy from the outside. On the inside however, it is possible to hear the other guests but nothing that really bothered us. We arrived earlier and it was possible to do the check-in early. Breakfast was good and they managed to prepare it half an hour earlier than the regular start for us since we had to leave early. Bathroom was clean, big and nice, bed was very comfortable. It is a hotel but I would say I felt a bit the feeling of a hostel, which I liked it, very easy going.

Costa RicaThe shower head was faulty, stairs are uneven which creates a bit of a hazard (tho we find this a lot in Costa Rica) The hotel is off of Main Street, but still some pretty significant noise.
Clean and secure facility close to town center, so walkable with lots of restaurant choices. The hotel was pleasant - the room was small but there were community places to hang out. We had one of the older rooms so possibly the new rooms are larger. Breakfast was delicious and catered to our needs. The bed was comfortable. We were glad to have AC in the room!

Room was very clean and reasonably spacious. Location was quiet but convenient to restaurants, etc. Staff were friendly. There were several attractive outdoor seating areas available. Breakfast was tasty and there was a nice selection of menu options. We had a view of the Arenal volcano when the clouds lifted.
