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 StatesFabulous hotel! Staff friendly, extremely accommodating and professional! Breakfast offered a variety of choices and food was excellent. On the morning of departure we had to leave at 5am. Hotel staff were kind enough to have hot coffee waiting for us in the lobby and breakfast to go. This was so helpful since we were traveling with a 19 month old. A million thanks to all of the hotel staff! We highly recommend this beautiful hotel and definitely would love to return!

United StatesMy husband and I loved our stay. From the hospitality to the beautiful accommodations it was just what we were looking for. The views of the sea were unreal. Highlights for us included the staff (so kind and helpful), beach location (perfect spot for a swim, catching a boat ride, or laying out on the comfortable lounge chairs), the breakfast (made to order omelettes and poached eggs), and the twice daily cleaning (I was surprised by how much I loved the night time cleaning. It was great to have fresh towels after showering from laying out during the day. We also loved the bedtime water and slippers).

United KingdomBar drinks and wine list way too expensive and service slow. 48 euros for 2 g&t prices people out… it’s a pity as we would have liked dinner. BBQ lunch was 245 euros which was a real shock.
Fantastic position… arrived to a magnificent Easter outside BBQ whilst awaiting our room. Lovely room very well equipped, pillow menu, room service excellent. Front staff great- Francesca so welcoming.

United KingdomThere is a train nearby and although we expected a family room with separated room from the sofa area, it wasn’t possible because otherwise we would be too close to the train. On the day of arrival our phones didn’t work and our soap dispenser wasn’t working. It took too long to fix the phones. That night also the water was cut on all of Taormina so not our luck… Besides all this, the staff was wiling to help and chased up when asked - but I expected this to be ready before us checking-in for a 5 star hotel.
We loved the hotel itself, the beautiful views and the delicious food. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

United StatesThe rooms can be a bit loud/not soundproof.
Beautiful resort. Away from the town, but we would rather stay on the water away from the tourists. It is the best hotel on the water in my opinion. It is a few minutes walk to the tram into town. The staff are excellent and go out of their way to make sure everything is great. Walter even had breakfast boxes for us when we left at 4am! The breakfast was also really good.
