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 StatesThis may be the most beautiful room I have ever stayed in. The house was the home of a famous Portuguese architect and it has been restored/finished to almost an work of art status in my opinion. Daniella, the manager, is extremely knowledgable of the nuances and history of the property. She is exceedingly professional, and, of course, friendly and helpful. The location is superb, within walking distance of restaurants and the marina area, and on a main line of public transportation as well. The room, and the property were amazing. In Porto, it will be a highlight of your trip to stay at the Architect's House.

The breakfast was fantastic and very generous. The breakfast room was nicely appointed and the staff friendly and very helpful and knowledgeable. Rooms had very high ceilings and the bathroom was spacious all in all beautiful. The location is conveniently close to the old town of Porto making walking a great way to get around.

United StatesBeautiful place, very clean, and very welcoming staff. From the start they were informative and helpful with providing us information for our check in process. We are not sure why but we were upgraded to another room which we appreciated it:) But we are mostly thankful for Daniela’s excellent customer service. For going out of her way to try helping us translate in order to get information of the location of our bags with the bus company we arrived. Thank you, Thank you for everything.

United KingdomNothing could have been improved. Ok, it would be nicer to see the street from our window to see the beautiful old trams passing by… The lift could’ve been a little quicker, but it really was not an issue.
The hotel was a short walk from the restaurants and bars. Close enough to easily walk but just far enough away to not be annoyed by nighttime noise. The bedroom was very big and the bathroom a decent size. Just as described, it had recently been renovated beautifully and was immaculately clean. The manager, Daniela, was friendly, professional and super helpful, ordering us taxis and advising us on good restaurants to visit. The breakfast was of a high quality, both the cooked breakfast and the fresh breads and pastries were gorgeous. This hotel was so much more personal and high quality than an international chain hotel. We would both stay again and recommend it.

United KingdomI don't think the question is correct. There was not anything I didn't like. However, I always think it would be nice if there were more coffee pods and some milk in rooms that have Nespresso machines. I think it is a nice addition to a room but maybe hoteliers could make more of it for us coffee lovers
The location, cleanliness, quality of the shower were all excellent. Our host was also very helpful and accommodating. She made our short trip extremely pleasant.

United KingdomWe had a great stay from start to finish! Annoyingly our TV didn't connect to wifi so we didn't have access to Netflix / other English channels, but this didn't bother us as we wouldn't normally watch TV on holiday anyway. The host was helpful and tried to help but as it was the weekend, they needed to wait until Monday before an engineer was available.
Breakfast was delicious. You get a basket of bread rolls and pastries, with butter, jam and Nutella, cheese and charcuterie, yoghurt, cereal, fruit, tea/coffee, and a selection of cooked breakfast options / açai bowl on top which was made to order.

I felt very safe and comfortable as a first time solo traveller. The shower was amazing. the bed very comfortable. Breakfast was abundant. An early check in was very helpful. Location is very good - you can easily walk to the sights within 10/15 mins. The tram stops right outside and bolt cars are cheap.and reliable if the hills feel daunting. I had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend 👌

Daniela, the manager was incredible. She explained the history of the house, it’s rehabilitation, the author of the house - architect Souto Moura and the link to the Pritzker prize in architecture. The location of the property was excellent and spotlessly clean. Never having been to Porto, Daniela explained all about the city and planned out an itinerary for us. Thank you so much.
