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.).

MaltaEvening showers were poor as there was no hot water. In the morning the water was lovely and hot but in the evening it was just tepid. Receptionist informed but it stayed the same. Was told that they're having some issues with the boiler.
The room was lovely and clean and the view was exceptional. Staff were very friendly and polite.

MaltaParking is still a big minus. The hotel looks outdated. The carpet in the room smelled very moldy. The indoor pool doesnt have windows to ventilate nor opened doors or any air flow for that matter so the air and smell is so funky and moldy in there.
Location is great. There is an indoor pool.

SwitzerlandThe underground parking is a disaster to enter we almost crashed our car. It’s very sharp and steep turn to enter at least the management should put padding and protectors at the walls as we saw many scratches of unsuccessful turns made. Additional sign to warn the guest should be put!
The view over the marina is great!

United KingdomMushrooms were only available for breakfast on the final day of our stay. Nothing really negative to feedback. He found that we were held up at reception passing through with too many questions and conversation. That's his lack of patience not the fault of friendly staff alone at the desk.
Really pleasant stay in a charming convenient location to get to and from and see the island. Easy to access free parking beneath the hotel. Breakfast was a wonderful selection of various fresh cold and hot foods as a buffet. Option to have breakfast outside in the sunshine 🌞 Comfortable and clean room efficiently cleaned whilst at breakfast on days requested.

United KingdomWe could not get English speaking films on Netflix/Prime so watched a couple of episodes of 'The Crown' in French !! Not a real problem for us as we could read instead.
The room had a terrace which overlooked the ferry terminal and harbour so always something to watch ! The bed was comfortable and room spacious. The breakfast was very good and the evening meals also very good. The staff were friendly and helpful.

United KingdomThe garage, a nightmare not only to get in and out but very space limited at times. Breakfast items sometimes a little strange, for example chips on one day, peas and sweetcorn on another. The coffee machines would spout boiling water at times. The Grand is obviously a very old hotel and a bit past its best, shower a nightmare to adjust, one second boiling hot and the next freezing cold and the toilet needing two or three flushes. Some of the furniture was looking a bit worn with frayed edges on the chairs.
Service was excellent and very friendly. Room size was enormous, view was good, especially watching the 5 hour queue on Sundays when it seemed the population of Malta was trying to get home.
