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.).

GreeceIt was a bit old and need renovation. The pool has 180 steps too go down to reach it.
The location was good. Very near the center on foot. Three parking was very easy to access, but it wasn't free. It had a nice terrace for breakfast with very nice view.

PolandSome minor things like no tissues or flip-flops in the room. Swimming pool open only till 6:30 PM. In general hotel could use some TLC (tender, love, care).
Location, location, location (close to main street with restaurants and shops and at the same time quiet place). Sea view from the room :) Nice room with good AC and fridge. Rituals cosmetics in bathroom. Good breakfasts on the terrace.

United KingdomLacked a little atmosphere - bar was closed when we could have done with a pre dinner afternoon drink. The contents of mini bar was inadequate ( one beer?, a few spirits, a few soft drinks) .
Perfect view, lovely helpful staff , good breakfast, beautiful hotel in the best location. We loved that it had a slight “faded glory days feel.” The concierge advised us about transport and was really helpful.

United KingdomBreakfast coffee and orange juice were very poor, no hot water in the bathrooms in the evenings. Wifi could be better. Poor coffee making in bedrooms. Poolside staff did not inspire confidence in understanding allergies. Overall the hotel is 'tired'
Staff were helpful and friendly. The pool - particular depth -and poolside facilities were good. Gardens lovely.

FranceThe inside is a bit tired and the decoration is inconsistent and dated. My single room was quite small but had view of the gardens and sea.
The hotel location is superb. The building hangs over a cliff and has the most spectacular gardens, pool is large and pool surroundings are spectacular. Pool restaurant offers good and decently priced food. This makes up for the inside of the hotel that could use a renovation

United KingdomSomewhat limited daytime service in terms of mid morning coffee or mid afternoon bar service. The hotel does not offer lunch or evening meal which is ok but if wet you need to go out. High charge for parking your hire car if arriving by this method 20 euro per day - this should be high lighted in advance of booking. No response to email via booking.com when asked in advance about this. Noisy dogs on other property below - not the hotel’s fault but not good for sleeping guests.
Great position. lovely view,pool and garden. close to main centre of Taormina. Good breakfast with friendly staff.

United StatesThe 'king' bed was 2 twins pushed together. They were not very comfortable and I kept falling into the Crack between them.
The view was beautiful from our room. The hotel was also in walking distance of the main shops and restaurants. You can tell they have done upgrades in the lobby area. Other areas are still beautiful but a bit dated.

The hotel was beautiful, very clean, and had a great location right at the local bus stop (great for taking trips elsewhere). The staff was very kind and helpful. The view from the room was magnificent. Breakfast was nice. The pool was great, a very nice area with view of the garden and the sea.
