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 StatesNothing- it was excellent!
The location is beautiful and although you are at the base of the volcano with nothing but nature surrounding you, it is the ideal location for exploring all La Fortuna and the Arenal area have to offer.

CanadaThe lunch and dinner are both relatively pricey, and the options start to get a bit monotonous, especially because you're in a secluded location and you'd have to take a cab into town to get something else to eat.
Absolutely gorgeous property and facilities. Lovely, helpful staff and a truly great breakfast.

United StatesThe shower temperature was a bit temperamental- very difficult to achieve water that wasn't either freezing or scalding. We were also soured a tad while checking out when we learned that losing a towel card (a small laminated piece of paper) was a $20 charge. I would understand the charge for losing or not returning a towel but $20 for the card seems a bit excessive.
The bungalows and facilities were all clean, comfortable, and beautifully kept. The location was fantastic and had amazing views of Arenal and the grounds dense with lush vegetation. Breakfast was delicious and the wait staff were friendly.

IrelandThe property and its surroundings are amazing. It was truly a great experience for - standalone bungalows give you so much privacy. The nature around it can be observed from the balcony - this was so enjoyable during our morning coffee time. The hotel staff was also so helpful and got us through one transport emergency.

We really enjoyed this beautiful bungalow with two terraces in the middle of nature. Although the resort is quite big, we had all the intimacy while admiring beautiful plants, birds and butterflies. The complimentary coffee in the room was very good.

Austria1) You need to redeem your towels for the pool with the tickets provided by the reception at check-in, which I think is a bit redundant. Maybe the towels can be directly placed in the hotel room? 2) During our stay it rained on and off. It would be better if there were umbrellas at our disposal. Other than that it was all ok.
Beautiful hotel in the midst of the jungle/forest. We amazed at the exotic birds walking around freely and listened to them singing.

United StatesWhat an incredible find! Our two-night stay felt too short. The bungalow was very clean and perfect for our needs. Breakfast was delightful, complemented by exemplary service. Additionally, we truly enjoyed the pool area, which offered breathtaking views of the volcano. The location struck the perfect balance: secluded enough for peace, yet only a short drive to La Fortuna. We’ll definitely stay here again.

United StatesNot much. It was expensive by Costa Rican standards, but didn’t seem overpriced given the view. The rooms could have felt more “high-end” for the price, but that is quibbling. It is well off the main road, making getting into town tricky if you don’t have a car. (We found Uber to be cheap and reliable in the area.) No hot springs, but we got a day pass at a nearby resort to enjoy those.
Beautiful property, helpful staff. Great view of the volcano, and howler moneys to see and hear. All around great stay. Even after the stay ended, when I realized I had forgotten some expensive headphones in my room, the hotel staff had them sent to the next stop on my trip. I was impressed!
