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.).

ItalyThe hotel is just in front of the ocean, you can have your meal with your feet on the sand under the palmtrees, while gazing at the wonderful landscape. The staff is attentive and helpful. Special mention to Shanto, the waiter, who really went to great lengths to ensure we were satisfied throughout our stay!

PolandThe waiting time for dinner food (grilled) is 3h but I noticed it’s like that everywhere on the island
The hotel is located next to a beach and diving center. The rooms are very comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was a bit different every day so that’s a plus. Staff is very friendly and to your service every moment. Portia organizes boat transfer to the airport so you don’t have to worry about it. Overall, I recommend!

NetherlandsMy reservation was too short. A few extra days would be nice
Breakfast and dinner right by the water, perfect service, possibility of ordering special dishes, bikini beach right next to it, peace and quiet, what more could you want. Additional trips - no problem. Octopus for dinner - you're welcome. Different breakfasts every day for 5 days, the local cuisine is really tasty and, compared to other places on the island, really not expensive. The island itself is beautiful, peaceful, and the people are incredibly friendly.

PolandVery helpful staff. Good contact. Tasty food. Free drinking water. Perfect view. Free snorkeling equipment. Please be aware that to the price on booking you should add taxes and if you paying by card in the hotel the 3.5% commission will be added. If possible take cash with you. All in all I totally recommend this accomodation.

Simple, small and clean, you get what you pay for. You could use it for a longer stay and won't need deep pockets.

BulgariaMe and my wife stayed at Portia hotel for six nights. I could say it is a great value for the money place. From the beginning till the end we received great attention from the host and the staff. Nothing was left behind. They assisted us with arrival and departure transfers and even arranged some turtle snorkeling which was a great experience for inlanders like us. Our booking included breakfast and dinner. The food was always enough and delicious. For the dinners we had a shortlisted menu but all the options were great, especially the grilled fish. For our last dinner the host arranged for us a romantic rinner with nice lighting and set up without even requesting it. It was a lovely surprise. Very handy for us was that the bikini beach is just a minute away from the hotel and our host arranged umbrella and sunbeds for us. The sun protection here is crucial and keep it in mind! Once again hotel Portia was a great place for us to spend a week at the Maldives!
