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.).

AustraliaA couple of the staff at the bar were rude in their manner to my husband in dealing with them regarding the free welcome cocktail and the booking of the table at the bar.
We really liked the view, the pools, the breakfast, the piña colada. The staff at the hotel and the restaurant were very good. They were professional and provided a very good service.

Best view in Manual Antonio. Clean, upgraded, infinity pool is warm and beautiful. Staff are friendly. No complaints. Worth spending a bit more.

United KingdomRude receptionist on arrival told me I could not check in as he was prioritising customers who were checking out. Told me to come back in 1-2hrs to check in. Note that I had paid for this hotel in full, it was not cheap, I was simply trying to check in so I could leave my suitcases at reception and grab a drink or some food by the pool. In my whole life I have never been refused or turned away when trying to check into a hotel. I was shocked. After waiting 1-2hrs I returned to the receptionist only to be told that he was ‘busy’ sorting out some papers, and if I could come back in another hour. What a warm welcome? The room was noisy and lacked proper acoustic insulation, we could hear those above us walking around in their room which was noisy and uncomfortable.
Great view from the room. Great pool. Great breakfast. Great lunch and dinner. Great staff at the dinner restaurant. Great location.

United KingdomThe hotel had a bit less charm than other place we stayed in, maybe because it was bigger and the staff could be more welcoming I think. But is was still nice overall.
Nice swimming pool with great view and sunset with lot of wildlife coming by, Capuchin monkeys, amazing Scarlet macaws. The room was spacious. The restaurant was delicious. There is a free shuttle to the beach that is very handy.

SwitzerlandStaying at Hotel La Mariposa was an unforgettable experience. The breathtaking views from the rooms left us in awe every morning. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel right at home. Additionally, the proximity to fantastic restaurants made dining out a breeze. Overall, I highly recommend Hotel La Mariposa for a wonderful getaway with unbeatable scenery and exceptional service.

United StatesNothing much to talk about.
Excellent sunset views! The hotel is also close (walking distance) to some of the restaurant on main street, which was great. Kids had fun enjoying the pool. We also loved the breakfast options, w/ the live taco stall where we could try several veggie options.

United StatesOur particular unit / room (2 beds for a family group of 3) was a bit awkward to manage (but not unmanageable). Other units / rooms would be more appropriate, surely; however, we booked late and we’re lucky to get a room!
Location (on hilltop) was excellent and provided extraordinary views, cool breezes and easy access to both Manuel Antonio and Quepos. The individual units / rooms provide ample privacy and all have incredible views. Generally, the property is beautiful and very well kept. Amenities overall were excellent, and the professional and courteous staff brought the entire experience together perfectly.
