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 KingdomOur room was Seaview terrace which is one of the more expensive rooms. For the cost it was a little tired. Couple of door handles were falling off and the paintwork could do with a refresh.
Excellant location extremely close to bars restaurants and the marina. Sea view rooms have an excellant view of the water front. Professional welcoming staff.

NetherlandsWe had a room on the backside of the building. We only really slept there as we were in transit. However, it would have be great to have had a room on the front of the building with harbour view. Ask for it if you go.
The location on the main harbour promenade was fantastic. It is a beautiful area. The municipal underground parking garage elevator opens right in front of the entrance of the hotel, which was quite convenient - especially since it was pouring rain when we arrived. The hotel is a 10 minute easy walk to the main touristic and going out areas of Santander. There was many bars, restaurants and cafés in the neighbourhood, which was quite convenient. The breakfast area was well-attended and had a broad selection.

United KingdomThere seemed to be a small issue with the lift's door while I stayed there, which I was a little worried when I got in the lift.
This hotel is in a great location -right next to the port. It is close to both city centre and the beach-within walking distance. It is a lovely hotel with really nice and comfortable rooms. I particularly liked the shower. Reception staff are so friendly and helpful. Excellent buffet breakfast with a lot of choices. I would definitely stay again if I return to Santander.

IrelandThe staff were extremely helpful and informative on what to see and do but it would be convenient to also have a selection of brochures and tourist material available. This may tie in indirectly with the only issue we had during our visit to Santander. We were surprised that so few restaurants had English language menus available. This was compounded by the fact that staff often had limited English and so were unable to assist with the choice of dishes.
The Vinci Puertochico is a gem of a hotel, with a lovely decor and ambiance, which operates at a very high standard. The staff are friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast was excellent, offered a wide range of choice and met all our needs and expectations. The location was central and convenient to all the sights and amenities. As keen walkers, we found it an ideal location. We also enjoyed the panoramic view of the bay from our room.

United Kingdomthe breakfast area is small and dark, all blinds were down and only illuminated by electric light. Not very inviting at al; if I had known at the time of booking, I wouldn’t have chosen to start my day there, especially with so many other cafe places to choose from at the hotel’s doorstep.

United KingdomWhy we have to sign multiple forms at check-in is a mystery!
The hotel is situated overlooking the port in central Santander so ideal for exploring the city. The spacious rooms are very tastefully decorated. We had a late arrival by air so we needed a central location for a bed for the night, it was very comfortable and quiet.
