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 StatesThe bumpy roads leading up to the suites.
Staying at Arenal Roca Suites in La Fortuna was truly a mesmerizing experience. The tranquility of the surroundings, with views of the majestic volcanoes and abundant wildlife, made it a perfect getaway. The off-the-beaten-path location added a sense of adventure to the trip. The seamless travel from San Jose and the amenities provided by the suite enhanced the overall stay. Highly recommend for those seeking a unique and relaxing escape.

BelgiumHumid house, difficult to ventilate. We could not keep the windows open due to broken mosquito nets. Also we had some ants inside the coffee machine and all around the room. The kitchenware to cook was very limited (but functional). Breakfast also rather simple continental. We stayed in lodge nr 7 and had fruits from the nearby tree making a lot of noise on the roof. Bring earplugs if this bothers you at night. 4WD for the accessing road recommended. Very poor wifi. Despite these minor negative points, we enjoyed our 3-days stay and would book the accomodation again.
Peacefull setting with breathtaking view from your bed and terrace. Good location if you enjoy being a bit away from the crowd (30 min La Fortuna, 20 min different Parks & activities and next to Mistico bridges).

United KingdomBreakfast!!! Please don’t offer it if you can’t fulfill your promises. First day ok we were given the choice of a basket breakfast or go to the hanging bridges restaurant, I was given one token, and we successfully had breakfast but the waitress insisted on taking our token. Day 2 as we had a early coffee tour so we opted for the basket breakfast which never turned up Day 3 we asked for a restaurant token but was told they didn’t have any tokens so just turn up, bearing in mind we only gained entrance to the park because of the token on the first day and the waitress insisted on only allowing us breakfast if she took the token, I couldn’t risk taking the word of the receptionist so we simply made breakfast ourselves at the cabin.
A fantastic location, with a magnificent view of the volcano simply stunning. The cabin is clean modern and well designed, with a lovely nature walk in to the jungle behind the cabins. The wild life was better than the parks!!! An amazing location. What ever I say in the negative part of this review it’s well worth staying there.

SlovakiaThe road. I don't think it's a minus of suites. You just need to know about it and choose a suitable car or drive the last 2 km really carefully. The kitchen equipment is basic, not enough for cooking.
The location is amazing. For breakfast, you have 2 options : delivery service and restaurant. The distance to the restaurant is 2km from the suites, but with more options to choose.

United KingdomBreakfast at the Hanging bridges was a little disappointing. My eggs were almost raw and when I asked for them cooked a tiny bit more they came back like concrete. One rasher of bacon and one hash brown. No tea on offer only coffee or watered down orange juice, not both. Clearly they are cutting back on the pictures previous guests had posted. It was ok but a little disappointing We also found the layout a little strange. The seating area facing a brick wall whilst the bed has the view but everyone has the view of you in bed 🥴if you don’t pull the curtains.
The view was simply stunning. It was immaculately clean. The staff extremely helpful and let us check in early. Great to get up and do the Hanging bridges before the hordes arrived. Still worth every penny despite my observations below.
