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.).

BulgariaWe would have appreciated a mosquito net on the window, as don't like sleeping with air conditioner on, but with window open. A clotheshorse on the terrace to dry wet swimsuits would be useful.
The owners are some of the kindest people we have ever met! They are very attentive to details and do a highly professional job to make you feel not simply well taken care of, but more than that - a very appreciated and dear guest. It was very nice chatting to them. They organized a catamaran trip for us. The food is excellent, both the breakfast and dinner - high quality local ingredients, very well cooked. Our room was very spacious and comfortalby furnished, with a large terrace overlooking the paradise-like garden and the lake. There is no wifi in the rooms but we had mobile data on the phones. The area itself isn't the nicest to walk around, however by a car you can reach Belle Mar public beach in 3 min. We loved our stay in Horisun and will be very glad to come back! Thank you!

SloveniaHorisun really exceeded our expectations. The room was very spacious and bathroom also. Very clean and calm. The AC was great. They changed the towels every day. The owners are the nicest people that I have met and talking to them was a fun experience. They arranged us a tasty dinner and arranged a taxi when we went on. I was breathless when I saw their beautiful garden. The walk to the beach was only 10 minutes. I could go on but I have to say you can't go wrong visiting Horisun when you want to stay at Belle Mare.

United StatesThis place is not a hotel, it's a warm welcoming home. Location: the place is very private and peaceful. It's a nice location to visit the whole north east coast. Food: the food is cooked with love, with a perfect fusion of Mauritian and Thai cuisine. Staff: the family that owns this place has poured all their heart into it! Overall, we had a wonderful time. We will be back.

United KingdomI’m glad that we booked the lake-view rather than the garden rooms as these are some walking distance from the pool facilities. A car is essential to stay here as it is short drive away to any facilities or beach.
A beautiful building in beautiful surroundings. The staff are the friendliest anywhere on the island. The lake-view room is large and the bed very comfortable. The pool and the breakfast area are stunning and right below the rooms.

PolandIt can get very hot in the room, and with AC you can easily get cold. Would be nice to have a fan in the room too as an alternative option. But the room was very cozy with a big, nice bathroom.

GermanyWe had an exceptional stay in this accommodation. It was the perfect location to relax next to the lake before our departure from the island. Very peaceful location with nice view and nature. When we booked, we were a bit concerned of mosquitoes due to its proximity to the lake, but we had no problem at all the 3 days we stayed there. The room was very spacious and clean, the personnel very friendly, and helpful with everything we needed. The breakfast was hearty, with many local products. Totally recommended!

Everything! Roshan and Sang make you feel at home from the first moment. They have created a little paradise surrounded by nature. We enjoyed every day, starting with a swim in the immaculate pool, the lovely breakfast with homemade crepes and fresh fruit and the 3 course dinner cooked by Sang. But the most precious thing is the feeling of being welcomed at this place.

IrelandNot much to say!! Wifi only in reception area. Wish we stayed another night.
The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They arranged a very last minute taxi for us when our rental car was cancelled, and sorted a rental car for us on arrival to the property. They greeted us with a lovely refreshing drink and were always on hand to help. I would definitely recommend getting the dinner there - a 3 course DELICIOUS dinner at their lake side restaurant. The staff go over and beyond here to help you. Room was lovely, loved the bath in the ground. 10 min walk to Belle Mare GORGEOUS beach.

GermanyA fridge in the room would be nice to have cool drinks. But you can get ice or even leave your drinks in the fridge downstairs. So thats not really a big negative thing.
Wonderful stay in a beautiful House, stunning room, really nice pool and perfect hosts! Song and her family are amazing hosts! We were their only guests at that time, but they always gave us the feeling to be more than welcome. The Lakeview room is amazing! Really spacious and the view is soooooo relaxing. We had dinner one evening and YES! Do it! Book the dinner - Song is a fantastic cook. Thanks also for the femiliar atmosphere and nice chats with all of you. We had a very relaxing stay - and the 2 nights were definitely too short.

We received a very warm welcome from our host Mrs. Sang and Mr. Roshan. Really impressed with the way they have architectured the place. It was a pleasure to spend time in the room, swimming pool, restaurant, and garden. Everything was just perfect in the room from the excellent and beautiful lake view to, the modern interiors. Breakfast was a feast with so many options. The love they put in cooking and serving is just superb.

NetherlandsWe don’t have any negative points, just do not judge on your way to the property, the ride is a little bumpy. But this ride is definitely worthwhile!
The family welcomed us very warmly, we immediately felt like we were home. The room is very spacious, and very nicely decorated. The hosts thought of everything. We really recommend to have your diner, a delicious home cooked meal, at the Horisun hotel, overlooking the big lake with fruit bats flying above your head. A unique experience. Breakfast is perfect. We regretted that we only booked for one night and would love to come back and recommend the stay.
