How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

We had a walk around the town, nothing much to see, but the hotel was chosen for an overnight stay due to the closeness to the port at Santander. Didn't use the Spa facilities as only there for an evening and felt wouldn't get the benefit - the cost of the Spa was 35e, so couldn't use the pool just for a swim, was a bit disappointed. Next time we will aim to get there early and get full use of facilities.
We chose this this due to the closeness of Santander port. The facilities at the hotel, electric car charger, safe parking under the hotel, very spacious and pleasant rooms. The most impressive thing we enjoyed was the breakfast. Wow this was exceptional! Having travelled through Spain many times, staying in various hotels, this was by far the best for us. I had missed my healthy breakfasts, and got everything and more here. If you don't want healthy, usual fried, pastries etc is available too! The selection was just fantastic.

AC not good for cooling the room had to ask twice before maintenance were sent to review. The “free” mini bar, is two small bottles of Solares mineral water per day, so I’d suggest managing expectations on that one. Reception don’t explain the services & the price policy adequately.
Peace and quiet.

The staff are very helpful especally as we have had a car breakdown and do not speak Spanish. They are translating messages for us and generally being incredibly helpful. Way beyond what we could epxpect - fabulous! We are stying here while it is fixed. Looks like a week at least!

Coffee machines at breakfast used pods, would love to see the hotel use a more sustainable alternative.
Breakfast was super, my kids loved the pastries, hot chocolate and fruit salads. Lots of options for all ages. The thermal spa was amazing, we all spent so much time there. The outdoor pool was fabulous too. The treatment area was lovely too, my facial was very relaxing. The yoga classes and room are a wonderful facility.

The hotel was really lovely. We were travelling with our dog and we had a great sized room with a very comfortable super king size bed. The staff were fabulous and really accommodating with our dog when we were booked into the restaurant for Sunday lunch on our arrival. Lovely lunch and breakfast was excellent too.

Feels a bit formulaic and well-worn. Maybe not enough lifts? Often spent a long time waiting… Restaurants were a bit characterless. Proximity to Santander is good, but not much in Solares.
We very much enjoyed the spa / pool facilities. Our room was spacious and comfortable and clean. Appreciated the kettle and breakfast brought as (optional) room service was great. On site electric car charger was a bonus.
