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.).

CanadaThere was nothing that we did not like.
We liked everything. The view of the sea, from the balcony was beautiful. The room was spotlessly clean and bright and the breakfast was the best breakfast we had in our three weeks in Italy.

United KingdomNot much. Pool area pretty half-hearted. That’s the worst I can say.
People on reception were fantastic. This was a forced stopover for me but I’d go back any time. Dated but in a ‘growing old gracefully’ way. Very friendly obliging staff. There is a beach club very nearby which was also good.

ItalyThese are some small things, just in order to hotel will be absolutely perfect. Everything was wonderful and I don't have any bad remarks. 1. exit and return from the beach. Perhaps you should think about some kind of electronic key , in order not to ring every time the bell 2. The water in the pool was hot. Of course, in the current weather conditions this is understandable, but perhaps there are some options 3. not enough hooks for towels and shelves for toiletries in the bathroom
breakfast- super. I read in previous reviews about coffee from the machine, this is not true. Breakfast is both salty and sweet, coffee is brought by the waiter, delicious croissants, there are yoghurts, a lot of fruits. Perhaps after 09:30 the choice becomes smaller, but not critical beach- umbrellas and sunbeds included in the price, beach is clean, has excellent entrance to the sea - small pebbles, immediately deep, which is great for someone who likes to swim. The sea is clear, cooling, despite the crazy hot weather. excellent cocktails in pool area and, despite the fact that the hotel is full, you can always find a place near the pool, as well as on the beach enough places nearby and in city center where you can have lunch and dinner. You can order lunch at the bar on hotel beach, which is very convenient. But if you don't like the menu, then there's a great selection of other places around the corner double room is not big, but there is enough space for 2 people, everything is neat, technically and visually in good condition, clean , room has spacious bathroom
