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.).

ItalyNothing. We only stayed a night, but if you stay longer the water heat and the toilet might disturb you, because the water gets heated only if there is sun and if there isn't the water is really cold, we couldn't take a shower for example, and the toilet is an eco toilet which doesn't have an hydraulic system because you're on a man-made island. It's okay to experience it we didn't have any problem, but again, we only stayed a night.
This was one of the best trips that we did while we were in Peru, the rooms are quite big, they're very nice and clean. When we were there, it wasn't extremely cold, so we were fine with all the blankets we had in the rooms. Eder is a very good host. He runs the hotel with his family. He took us to show how they lived and what they ate. He also took us to see the community of the Uros islands, told us about their history, what they have been through, and they're going through as Uros people. He was so nice and kind like the rest of his family. The food... we ate one of the best fish (trucha) that we have ever eaten in our lives. My sister doesn't like fish, and even she didn't even leave a single piece on her plate. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner and all of them were very, very good. We were very satisfied with our stay.

United KingdomObviously the WiFi/4G isn’t great out here, but for us this was perfect to relax and switch off.
Just wow, what an incredible place. The location is STUNNING. The room is beautiful. The bed is insanely comfy. The food is great. The host family are the best - the tour and fishing trip with Eder was a highlight of our whole trip (after a couple of months travelling) it was a truly authentic experience. It’s a little on the more expensive side but amazing value for money.

I really loved everything: the location, the cabana, the food, the views, and especially the hosts. Eder and his family are the kindest and mindful hosts I have ever met, always willing to provide you the best services and immerse you in their culture. The cultural immersion was the best part: Eder took us fishing and told us the history of the Uros Islands and the Casitas del Titicaca, his mom took us on a boat ride to visit "the comunidad" - other household islands in their community. On one of these islands, native women told us stories about their history and played traditional songs. The family really goes far and beyond to make you feel comfortable and part of their family. I definitely recommend the Casitas del Titicaca and hope to return there one day!

AustraliaIt was amazing, all of it. Be ready for the slow internet but.... That was a chance to just drop netflix and grab a book!
What an amazing weekend we spent there! We booked for two nights, which we thought was perfect to be able to enjoy the peaceful place and all the activities we did. This is a family run business, they live on one side of the floating island and they have rooms on the other side. Our private house was super spacious and with glass in 3 of the 4 sides all overlooking amazing parts of the lake. One of the nicest views I've ever had in a hotel. The room is very well decorated and comfortable. Ot gets cold at night, but there is a gas heating and plenty of blankets. Don't forget some warm clothes to be able to enjoy the beautiful terrace with a balinese style bed. We passed the days reading, contemplating and feeling luvky to be there. The family includes in the price few activities that are relly cute and nice.

United StatesThe property is super, but it literally is a floating island of reeds, as such there is a compost toilet and a gas stove for heating at night.
Incredibly unique adventure living as a guest of a family in the Uros Islands. The meals blew us away as we were served three times daily. It’s a truly off the grid unwind vacation spot!

SwitzerlandNothing.
We had a wonderful 2 night stay at hotel casitas del titicaca. It was a magical time spent with the host Edar and his lovely family and cute kids. Edar showed us how the floating island works, how it was built, and maintained. It was amazing and mind-blowing. We set the nets for fishing on our first day, and the next day, we got first-hand experience on how the fish are caught, cleaned, and cooked and transformed to mouth watering dishes. The dishes served were all included in price and were different every day. Starter, main, and desert were all lovely. Thank you, edar and family, for having us. We will always remember and cherish these memories. We recommend this hotel 100%. If you want to have first-hand experience of floating islands, then this is your one stop solutions for all the adventure.

United StatesNothing. We knew in advance the properties in Uros had dry bathrooms but they had lids so it wasn’t a problem, that it gets chilly at night but you’re provided with an in-room fire place and hot water bottles, and that wi-Fi/phones would be challenging given the remote location but you can bring your own. These are all things that make this experience even more authentic and is part of the fun.
Eder and his family were absolutely lovely. Eder spent most of the day with us sharing his family’s history, language, and culture. Claudia, his mom, is an incredible cook and every meal was better then the previous. His father, Felipe, was so willing to share his journey and experiences with us.

ItalyAbsolutely nothing! This place is 10/10 and this family are honestly the nicest people you’ll ever meet.
This lodge is without a doubt THE most wonderful place I’ve been to in Peru. I’ve travelled extensively, and have now been to lake Titicaca twice. This place is absolutely perfect for so many reasons. The room is divine! The mattress is HUGE (I’m 183cm and it was huge for me!), super comfortable with many blankets to keep you warm. The decor has mostly been done by the family and is stunning. There is an inside fireplace to keep you warm at night and the shower has hot water. We chose all inclusive which was absolutely worthwhile. The meals are huge and delicious- meals change eat day. The view from the room is one of the prettiest things I’ve seen: you can enjoy the surroundings on the outside sun beds on from the bedroom itself. Eder, the owner, has a beautiful family who are so welcoming. He was born in this community and knows everyone in Uros. He teaches you about their way of life so you’re able to better understand how these communities live which is phenomenal! Eder also speaks English in case people are concerned about a language barrier. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for the perfect place to relax on Lake Titicaca!

United StatesIt’s good to be aware that the islands have compost toilets, run on solar power and don’t have wifi. There is hot water during part of the day, but in winter rooms can get very chilly. It’s beautiful but you would want to be prepared and bring layers.
This is a really special place to learn about life in the Uros islands. The host and his family are kind, helpful in showing us their community and very attentive. The food was plentiful and they adjusted to our vegetarian request with some tasty options.

United KingdomThere is nothing not to like about this property if you want to truly experience the life of an Uros family. Just be prepared for very cold evenings and wrap up. The sunrise the next day will soon warm you up. the lack of WiFi can also be a welcome but we did have our own 4G.
if you would like a unique experience staying with a family on one of the Uros Islands then this is the place for you. The panoramic view is spectacular with wonderful sunsets. the accommodation is perfect - a lovely terrace, the most comfortable bed with thick quilts to keep you warm at night and plenty of hot water for the shower. Eder and his family are very welcoming ( and do not live in such luxury ) with the most gorgeous children. We enjoyed catching trout together and there are other islands to visit too.

SwitzerlandEder and his family were great hosts. The little island is so well done, the rooms with their terrace are totally luxurious. We loved the view and we loved all the lovely details. The nights on the lake are very cold and Eder made a little fireplace in the room. Eder proposed some activities and made all his best to make us happy. We went for traditional fishing and hunting and the experience was remarkable. Eder is passionate with this way of life which made our stay authentic. Food was very good too. Eder speaks English, which can be a big bonus for the ones like us not speaking Spanish.
