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 gym didn't have aircon. We were travelling with someone in a wheel chair? Whilst there are accessible areas- it is limited to the foyer (pools and outside areas all have steps). The accessible room is also lacking supporting bars for the shower and toilet.
The rooms were decorated wonderfully with gorgeous views. Breakfast was fabulous and the staff were all a pleasure to speak with.

HungaryLimited parking spots in the hotel parking. We had a minor cleaning issue on our arrival day, but it was resolved within 15 minutes.
Astonishing view from the room. You can see the ocean and the mountains even from your bed. The staff were extremely helpful and very child-friendly. The breakfast was great. The indoor pool is a great bonus after a day of hiking.

United KingdomShower could have been a bit stronger, and the toilet was rather noisy when refilling, but that's about it
Very friendly reception and check-in. Welcome drinks. Good sized comfortable room. Nice fault maid service. Really good food at the restaurant. We ate in most of the time as it seemed to be the best around. Nice to have use of the steam room and sauna.

SwitzerlandThe tables outside were not arranged for breakfast, and although people chose to stay outside, no one cleaned the tables. In the mornings, most of them were sticky from the previous day.
Nice breakfast with fresh fruit and freshly made waffles and pancakes. Comfortable room and balcony. Attentive staff. Much better than the other Aqua Hotel from Moniz.

United KingdomWhat an amazing place. We had a lovely time relaxing and walking the island. Infinity pool I loved but cold🫶. The hotel is clean and brilliantly located with good space, fantastic sea view from our room👊. Very nice and friendly staff, each and everyone of them. Very helpful with lovely smiles 😃 Breakfast inclusive in our booking which is very kind of the hotel as we know some charge you additional fees for breakfast. 👍 We also love the daily cleaning of the room. 👏 Soft and lovely evening entertainment was great 👍 Thanks for our welcome bubble wine and our wee goodbye sweet jars. Definitely coming back and I will recommend 👌

Switzerlandnothing, we loved our stay here.
Perfect location for a getaway and as a base point to discover the island, especially the Western part, just an hours or so drive from the airport/Funchal. You need a car if you want to explore the island. Great view from the room (sunrises are fantastic), comfy beds, nice and modern facilities, inside pool with salt water and infinity pool on the roof, beautiful lounge on the roof to chill, tasty food and great presentation in the restaurants (both breakfast and dinner, we did not have lunch in the hotel). Many cool activities just a minutes walk away: lava pools, diving with sharks and rays in the aquarium, whale and dolphin watching tour. Very pleasant, helpful and friendly staff who made us feel comfortable and welcome from planning prior to our trip until we left. A special thanks for organizing one of the most beautiful flower bouquets ever for my wife's birthday. The people working in this hotel should be proud of themselves for the great job they are doing and the smiles they are putting on the guests faces. Thank you, we would love to come again.

United StatesIf you are wanting to do city viewing/activities, this isn't the hotel to do it. It's about an hour from the main city and a taxi/Bolt will cost you about $100 one way so it would just be cheaper to get a rental car which will run you about $60 for the weekend.
The hotel was immaculate; we were greeted with a drink upon check-in which immediately made us feel at home. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. The room had a beautiful view of the ocean which made for beautiful sun rises. The food at the restaurant was good and reasonably priced. The walk-ability of the area is amazing; there are nice restaurants all around and beautiful scenery every where you turn. The indoor pool was an absolute plus.

United KingdomPerhaps at the upper end of the price range in Port Moniz.
Very attentive staff at check in, we had to leave early so were offered a picnic breakfast with gluten free options. We also checked in early so instead of a welcome drink we later found a bottle of moscato with two glasses in the room, a special touch that made us feel very welcome. Everything about the room was perfect, sea view with a little balcony, nice clean bathroom. The SPA facilities are also superb and the infinity pool on the roof a little gem (though freezing at the time). There is free entry to the new natural pools included in the rate, and the old ones are just in front of the hotel.

IrelandFound rooms a bit warm even in winter with the patio doors open and there is no air-conditioning. Reception did say that they have portable air-con units but unfortunately I asked for one after maintenance had left for the day and we were checking out the next day.
Great stay. Hotel is in a great location and staff went out of their way for guests.
