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.).

ColombiaNice room and facilities. We loved having the ocean just in front of the hotel therefore the possibility to swim at walking distance from our room. Also one of the best places to have breakfast in the area.

BrazilShared this with the team and they did share their apologies and have plans for repairs on some items. Bathroom is a bit weird for me since it is all open with no doors. Not sure if this is normal in Dutch culture but it was a bit difficult to adapt.
Very nice and old Dutch style property. Paint was solid colors and looked like it was recently done. Great decorations and made the room very cozy. Good shower head as I like big shower heads.

BrazilUnfortunately I saw some cockroaches outside the room and in the hotel lobby. I told the staff, who were kind and used insecticide, however, the cockroaches continued to appear. Despite that, inside the room was clean.
The aesthetics and decor of the place is beautiful! The service at the hotel's restaurant is very good too!Good bed and good shower!

NorwayIt was a pleasure to stay 2 nights at BijBlauw. The hotel is located pretty central. Having the breakfast by the sea, in the restaurant area, was the highlight of the day. The room was spacious with everything needed, good wifi and great air conditioner. I warmly recommend this hotel!

CuraçaoThe king size bed is actually just two twin mattresses put together, so inevitably you or your partner falls into the crack in between the beds which is uncomfortable. Additionally, the bathroom has a door with big window in it which can make going to the bathroom feel awkward/uncomfortable.
The location is great and close to the best bars and restaurants, and the hotel has a nice and cozy design. The staff is very friendly and willing to help. The food and service at the restaurant are not very good, but the coffee is good and the view at the restaurant is great overlooking the ocean. The rooms are pretty quiet which is also a great plus, and the rooms are clean and well-maintained.

staff was exceptionally friendly. Also the restaurant was really good, they organized to prepare two vegan dishes, that were not mentioned on the menu. Amazing location of facility directly in front of the ocean!

United StatesThe neighborhood of Pietermaii in Willemstad had a lot of partially renovated buildings, so seemed a little rough around the edges (though safe and clean). Willemstad overall a little disappointing (not beachy). However, you have the rest of Curacao for beautiful beaches. Did have to go up a long flight of stairs.
Attractive room, clean, peaceful, nice deck upstairs. Best features were the (1) restaurant (right by water, outdoors, excellent food) and (2) kind and helpful staff.

NetherlandsBijBlauw doens't include breakfast, while room price is quiet high. The breakfast available at the restaurant is good, but expensive and not worth the price. I think they can do better in terms of breakfast for guests.
BijBlauw staff really makes you feel at home. The room was excellent, with good beds, fine bathroom and tasteful design. .
