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.).

PortugalWe had to rush in order to meet the latest check-out option, but other than that it was a really nice experience.
The service was truly impressive. We arrived relatively late in the evening, and the staff provided us with great restaurant recommendations in town. The rooms were very cosy and the breakfast was definitely a highlight.

United KingdomA greater variety of deserts.
The hotel is a collection of old rural buildings superbly re-purposed, comfortable, chic and in the middle of nowhere. It is family run with attention to detail and great friendliness towards it’s guests. Great rural views and the opportunity for endless self-directed walks through the scrubby landscape. The food is excellent and though in principle there is just one set menu the staff make every effort to adapt to provide alternatives. The pool is welcome after a hot day.

United KingdomMeals were limited albeit well presented and cooked. Fish and pasta or pasta and fish. Pricey for what it is
Difficult to find use hotel website, very rural. The guy deserves to succeed turning four 16th century walls into a four star quirky hotel. I say quirky, our wardrobe was a stone alcove with a piece of driftwood on which to hang our clothes, attached by rope to the ceiling, you get the idea. Lots of little crannies very tastefully done

United KingdomAll lovely. The road up to the hotel was a bit bumpy, but beautiful in its own way, and once at the beautifully restored Borgo, all was calm.
Lovely breakfast, presented with care and attention. Loved the fresh orange juice as well as plenty of fruit. The cappuccinos were of a thirst-quenching size. To sit on the beautiful terrace and enjoy a calm breakfast or dinner was heaven. The dinner menu was perfect, with something for everyone. A very personal approach from Mena and Domenico made this a very special place to stay and the highlight hotel of our Sicilian holiday.

United StatesDon’t travel to this place in the dark as it’s a bit remote.
This is hands down the greatest family owned bnb. It was gorgeously renovated and no detail was missed in the decor. The remote location was so relaxing. And you MUST stay for dinner. It was the best meal we had in Sicily and the chef comes out and greets the guests. It’s close to the Scala dei Turchi and temples if you are looking to sight see. You must stay here if you are visiting the area!!!

United StatesThe road to the villa is a bit challenging, and google Maps doesn't provide an exact location. We recommend making first coming before dark. But once you get there, you will be amazed!
The Villa is absolutely gorgeous! It has a small restaurant with gourmet dining, which is very convenient. Large pool with beautiful resting area around. Amazing hosts! Great place for the couples who are looking for beautiful, peaceful oasis near Agrigento.

United StatesWe were traveling all through Sicily and this was a small slice of heaven. World class hospitality and accommodations in an incredibly serene setting. The owners are warm and welcoming, they anticipated our every need. The restaurant served a beautiful breakfast and our dinners, prepared by their private chef served under the stars was an amazing experience. We did not want to leave.

CanadaMara & Domenico really made our stay feel very special. All the staff was nice and it was great to meet the chef during dinner. It’s truly a coin de paradis. Doing yoga under the olive trees will be a memory that we will cherish forever. They also a have a rescue dog 🐶 (beagle) that is adorable …he’s unfortunately afraid of everyone and always keeps a distance. The road to get to the Borgo is quite an adventure (especially the last km) but I guess it’s part of the experience.

We loved everything about our stay. It was an oasis and so relaxing. There is a lot to do in the local area but to be able to come back to such a beautiful place was a real bonus. The staff were amazing too. We highly recommend staying for dinner each night, the chef is outstanding and so are the staff, truly authentic local cuisine and we loved everything we ate. Breakfast was also beautiful. I honestly couldn't say enough about our stay and look forward to coming back again one day.
