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.).

EstoniaCouldn’t get good sleep, since the pillows were like rocks and my next was very stiff the next morning. Also, parking should be free for quests who stay the night in the hotel, and not pay 15€
Everything was very well thought of, the spa area super nice and clean and loved the atmosphere. Staff were extremely nice and you could feel the warmth. Rooms nice and clean and loved the fact that they cave children also mini spa hotel slippers and kids towel poncho ( first spa hotel we have seen doing this in Estonia ). Definitely want to go back

EstoniaThe prices are way too high, guys!... This is Tartu, not Tokio :). For the Superior Rooms and above, the Salt Centre could be included into Spa experience as well, not Sauna Centre only. I was unlucky asking for quiet room but getting some armchair or eve bed moving above my head all night long. I am not sure was it from the guests or it was some maintenance room above me, but noise was sincere...
The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was neat and clean. The Spa bag was a pleasant surprise, fancy way to spoil the guest. The breakfast was fresh, with large assortment and nice touch of champagne for hangovers :).

United KingdomI think everything was perfect. Very good parking facilities. At first I was a little worried about the room, as I was hoping to an upgrade (unfortunately the deluxe room was booked already), everything turned out to be superb. 5 of us fitted nicely in the room. The room was very clean and nice. The spa was just literally next to our room and the spa was amazing. The breakfast was perfect. Coffee was delicious. I would like to thank all the staff for the stay, but especially Richard and Ragne. They made the stay for us very special and unforgettable. They were just brilliant. Thank you! You made my daughters birthday very special.

LatviaYou should definitely think about free parking! On Saturday, there were a lot of people in the SPA area who were not hotel visitors - so it was difficult to enjoy peace and relaxation!

LatviaThe parking of the hotel is very expensive, there is a small space for the car on the street to pay less. That's not nice. For one day fee you can visit the spa either until 12:00 or from 14:00. If you want to visit from morning to evening you need to pay for a second day.
Very good location, close to the city center, near all shops. Super SPA and pool. Everything is perfect. A very tasty and rich breakfast - there is everything. Ideal for recreation with children or relax.

The staff was professional and polite and as friendly as always. This is one of my favorite hotels in Estonia! The service is always very welcoming and polite, rooms are nice and with beautiful interior. Beds are large and comfortable. Spa is also one of the best in Estonia - many excellent saunas and cozy relaxing areas. I always recommend this hotel :)

United StatesLocation was good once you find it :) Google maps for some reason takes you to the wrong corner to access the hotel entrance; it took us sort of to the spa area instead, which is inside a large mall. We had to go down to the parking level to cut across to the hotel from there but eventually found it. It's literally less than a 5 min walk from the bus station. When you arrive, just walk south on Soola one block and the hotel entrance is at the corner of Soola and Aleksandri. Other con is that the shower water pressure wasn't great and the temperature kept fluctuating, periodically becoming really cold as well as scalding hot for a few seconds throughout the shower time.
Room was spacious and well-appointed, and the hotel overall is of a high standard. The bathroom had a fully-enclosed shower (not a given in Europe), though there was a small gap between the door and the glass panel but luckily not too much water got through to wet the bathroom floor. Alternative pillows are available. Staff was friendly. Included breakfast at Joyce for no extra cost was a great touch and there were a lot of options at their breakfast buffet (eggs cooked a variety of ways, oatmeal, sausage, croissants and breads, fruit, cottage cheese, and a lot more). We also made use of the basic spa package which was great (did not do Sauna World or Salt World, but they are just separate gated entrances off the main spa room, which had plenty to enjoy including several types of Jacuzzis, saunas, and pools). I would certainly stay here again and would recommend to anyone.
