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.).

Everything was so clean and very traditional chic. Loved the way they took a ruin and incorporated into a lodge. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be coming back to this hotel once it’s warmer to use the pool.

United StatesThere is nothing not to like!
This renovated stone structure into a beautifully appointed 8 room boutique hotel was perfection! Such a relaxing setting looking out to a gorgeous infinity pool with olive trees and unobstructed landscape for miles. Stefano and Katarina were lovely host. They went out of there way to make our stay one of the best stays of 9 location. We didn't make reservations one night and texted them out on the road and they found us a lovely restaurant in the next town over. You will not be disappointed!!

Everything. Stefano and Katarina went out of their way to make our stay memorable. Showed us how the place was reconstructed from having been abandoned for 40 years. The renovation was outstanding, every detail was thought through. Really modern but still true to the original design. A true heaven at the end of the (very narrow) road.

FranceA peaceful heaven, beautifully integrated in authentic nature. The views are stupendous! For us it was an instant relaxation with all modern amenities. Taking a shower with a view on the boulders and olive trees, watching the sunset from the bed or stargazing from the terrace was a bliss. The best breakfast we had in Portugal with local products and (delicious) homemade cake. Stefano and Catarina have been amazing hosts. No doubt we will be back for longer next time.

PortugalNothing 😊
This place is an absolute paradise! The entire property is dreamy and the concept really well thought. You can see it in the details, its design and decoration, and how it feels in perfect harmony with its surrounding nature. One of the things we enjoyed most was the outdoor pool, always with perfect temperature (I mean it was also pretty hot outside so anything cool was perfect) the birds coming down to take a sip of the water and the little space the owners created to stargaze, which we did and even saw a shooting star in the company of the many fireflies. Breakfast was filled with typical bread, cheese, yummy granola and overall bio/regional food! We chose the Room with the oversized bathub and we were pleasantly surprised for how big it truly was in person. One can fit there perfectly stretched out, making our stay even more relaxing. It was never a problem that we did not have wi Fi, because we were looking forward to the peace and quiet, which we had. The owners were AMAZING, extremely nice, always concerned, polite and gave many useful reccommendations. We were also offered with perfumed Bath salts and because we are tea people, they were so kind as to lent us every night their kettle! Thank you for everything. We couldn't have asked for better and even got a bit teary eyed when we left. One of our best experiences so far.

United StatesMy room was spacious, clean and mostly comfortable. The bed linens were a bit scratchy (not soft) and the pillows were super firm. The bathroom was large and spa-like. There was an unpleasant smell in the shower, and I suspect the raised wood shower floor makes it difficult to clean the shower properly. The property is a renovated farmhouse, and the owners have taken care to preserve many details and charm of the old farmhouse. The surroundings are beautiful and tranquil. The location is a bit remote and requires travel down a long, very narrow path between rock walls to access the property. Nearby restaurants seem to be limited to one, O’Carlos, which was out of many menu items including white wine and was not very good. I would definitely not recommend eating here. The owners of the property are pleasant and accommodating.

IsraelDear Tatiana, Just to clarify that we do not allow food from outside to be consumed on our property, please let us know if you would like us to book a table at a restaurant for you. Thank you Bode Country House It is not pleasant experience to get that kind of message after basic question about hot water for tea, cups and wine glasses. No food options on site, no tea/coffee maker, no cups, no mineral water. And it is really difficult to get to place, especially in darkness, the stone path is no lights and very narrow. No Wifi
