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.).

United KingdomThe hotel is a huge resort, our room was a 10-15min walk away from the main part of the hotel.
The hotel was great, the food was different every day, drinks were VERY strong! Not like the usual all inclusive cocktails that taste like juice! Big pool, lots of sun loungers didn’t need to worry about where we’d sit even with there being 6 of us!

United KingdomI think the room was a little outdated and not that spectacular at all. I did visit another 5 star hotel during my time and the room at Adriana was definitely nicer. It's a shame about the bed being a twin bed pushed together. I think the spa is a little boring too, not very relaxing or zen at all but was glad I could book it in.
The staff are amazing, friendly and super helpful. The staff I encountered outside the reception and bar didn't all speak fluent English but they would always go above and beyond to help. The food was good. The 1€ return shuttles to the nearby town were great too, fantastic value for money. All in all it was a lovely stay.

GuernseyWe went off-peak season so a lot of the activities weren't running and not all the restaurants were available on the resort. But that's on us for going at that time of year. We liked that it was quiet and not overrun with other guests.
Lovely resort and was very clean and the food was good. It was easy to walk around it. The staff were very helpful and friendly. I also liked the transfers into the main towns as the resort is located further away and not walkable.

LithuaniaThe bed linen felt humid at times, the neighbours were really loud till 3 am last night of the stay, so there were some minor things, but overall they didn't spoil the positive impression.
The staff was wonderful, the food was excellent with the variety for everyone's taste, the beach with cliffs was stunning, the superior room was ok.

NetherlandsFocus is clearly on volume not on quality, with very little eye for detail and ultimately not on par with 4star hotel. The bar area had the typical putrid smell of a postmix or bartray never getting properly cleaned. The spa facilities were simple with a pleasant enough sauna, but the steamroom was out of order. We had a screw sticking out of the bathroom floor where the doorstopper was meant to go. I also felt the restaurant was understaffed and the waiters on site were getting overworked and treated unpleasantly by management.
Location at the beach and the dunes/gardens at the hotel. Quite a few different facilities available such as tennis, tabletennis and spa. Reception was very friendly.

PortugalThe quality of the food was good, but there could be more variety to make it even better.
We enjoyed our time at the place. The facilities provided were good, and the staff was excellent and really handy. I also got to enjoy some really relaxing and beautiful moments there and the drinks were amazing. It's great that they have free parking space that is well-managed. Additionally, we were able to charge our car in their parking with extra payment, which was convenient because we no longer had to leave the hotel.

United KingdomThe gaps for the evening activities is a bit long. Our room is too far from the reception. Some of the cocktails are pre-made in the machine so the taste is a bit odd.

United KingdomEvery member of staff was so warm and friendly except one older fella that runs the small outdoor area by the main restaurant where people can eat their meals. He has some chaotic system that only he appears to understand and was shockingly rude when we sat down at one of the seemingly free tables. This led to a lot of slamming of plates and cups as he rolled his eyes and prepared the table and ended with a pleasant “my god!” We were having a truly relaxing time here and loving it until coming across this horrible man. Spotted him doing the same to other guests. Would recommend avoiding that area altogether. Or perhaps someone can have a word with this grumpy man.
The two sides to the resort was a very welcome relief. There’s the larger pool that’s busy all day, music on, children splashing in the water and the night life pops. Then there’s the quieter smaller pool by the Grill restaurant. That was bliss for us - same drinks and meals/snacks but much quieter and restful. And the beach was 5mins away and is just beautiful.
