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.).

The view from the room was excellent. The breakfast was very good and served poolside. Staying here requires going up and down many flights of stairs no lifts or elevators. Staff was friendly and helped with tours. Walking distance to several good restaurants.

United KingdomNothing, really, everything was of a high standard and I had no niggles.
Fabulous location with gorgeous views from the room as well as from the pool and breakfast area. The lower jacuzzi in the forest area is absolutely lovely by day and night, a pleasure to bathe and socialise in the midst of nature. Breakfast was delicious and a good choice of possibilities. The hotel is near to restaurants, cafés and shops with a really good range of food and drink on offer. The room was calm, relaxing, comfortable and spacious with very necessary and effective airconditioning.

GermanyThe rooms could use some mild renovation but overall quality is still good. The "Enchanted Forest" was sadly out of order after recent rain damages.
Large and comfy room with amazing view. Beautiful pool and hot tub area with great bar service, perfect for the rainy afternoons in October. The clothing-optional policy at the pool made it even comfier. The bed with extremely comfortable, AC worked well, great room service. The served breakfast by the pool was always excellent. Also there, lovely attention by the staff.

United StatesMinor infrastructure and maintenance problems, e.g. slow-draining shower stall, finicky door lock, non-functional electronic safes. When we notified the office that the shower in our first room, #9, was not draining properly, they promptly sent over a person who tried to unclog the drain. Unfortunately he did not have the right tool. Then the locking mechanism of the entrance door coincidentally broke down. To their credit, we were immediately moved to another room, #11. In our opinion, this room is not as good as room #9 because the bedroom and the bathroom are both smaller and with peculiar dimensions. Also due to its orientation we could hear noise transmission from the bar the whole time the bar was open.
Excellent location and setting - perched on a hillslope, almost all rooms have at least a partial view of the ocean. All the rooms are below the level of the main road, therefore insulated from traffic noise. CLOTHING-OPTIONAL swimming pool area - this was the deal-breaker for booking this hotel, and it did not disappoint. Very low-key, relaxing and freeing atmosphere. Excellent and responsive service staff - from breakfast-preparer to house-keeping to receptionist staff. Very good breakfast options included. Multiple diverse and excellent dining options within walking distance.

This hotel is amazing!! The views are unbeatable, the staff is incredibly friendly. The food is excellent. There is a friendly cat who wanders around saying hi to people. Monkeys came and hung out with us during breakfast twice, and so did a large iguana. The room was wonderful. It’s very easy to get to any attraction from here and aside from the hotel restaurant there are fantastic restaurants in walking distance. We are coming back!!
