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 staff were so welcoming and friendly. The hotel itself was clean, the room's were perfectly designed to give the best use of the space. We had an amazing meal in the pizza restaurant, which is so delicious. We also asked for a later checkout time due to our flight home being at night and the hotel was more than happy to accommodate this request. All in all a very enjoyable stay. ✨️❤️

United KingdomI had an excellent stay at Fontinha Porto and I’m already planning my return! This was my first visit to Portugal and my first solo trip. The hotel is exactly as pictured, clean, modern, comfortable and well decorated. Check-in was quick and easy and I received a welcome drink on arrival. I upgraded my room on arrival to one on the 4th floor, (possibly picture 39) and it was very peaceful and quiet. Everything in the room was perfect - there was ample storage, great shower pressure/temperature and a really comfortable bed which ensured a great night’s sleep. The staff were friendly, extremely responsive and helpful both via message on booking.com before my trip, and in person once I arrived. They kindly ironed some of my clothes for me, loaned me an adapter and also left a thoughtful gift and card in my room for my birthday. The hotel is perfectly situated a 10-15 minute walk from the town centre, downhill into town and uphill on the way back. Its also close to the train/bus so easy to get around. As a lone female I felt very safe the entire time, even when walking home at night. (The pictures are slightly blurry as they’re screenshots from the video I took). Thanks again to everyone a for a perfect stay! I have recommended the hotel to family and friends and can’t wait to return. :)

United KingdomGood location, on the outskirts of the centre but only 10/15 mins walk to the main points of interest in Porto. The property was spotlessly clean. It is fairly new with some lovely design features. The team ( without exception) were friendly, helpful and keen to see and hear that you were comfortable, enjoying your stay in the hotel and enjoying Porto.

United KingdomIf you want to stay closer to the centre and not walk 20/30 minutes home after a night out, I’d pick a hotel closer to the river as it was very steep and hilly on the way back every night to the hotel. There are buses (701/702) and the metro to get back by, but we opted to walk to take the city in.
Great staff, clean and tidy room, restaurant in the hotel itself if you’re stuck for ideas on food. Good location even though its a good 20/30 minute walk away from the riverside. Meant we were able to explore a lot more of the city this way and stumble upon sights you wouldn’t possibly see if you stayed closer to the centre. Literally walk down the main road and you’re in the main shopping district of Porto and by a nice market. Theres a great bakery 10 minutes up the road just by FC Porto’s ground too called “Brites”

UkraineThe room was pretty small, there was no space for luggage so that it was not in the way and you couldn’t open the doors to the toilet and shower at the same time (or standing near the sink) as they would be in the way of each other :) it seemed the whole of Porto was pretty compact so maybe that’s how all the hotels are? I have nothing to compare to since it was my first time in Porto but the general feeling was this. The 2nd thing that we didn’t really like is that it’s kind of hard to come back to the hotel on foot from the city center, a little far and uphill, about 20 mins.
It was a cozy little hotel that basically had everything needed for a short-term stay like ours. The room was modern and clean, the staff were friendly and helpful so all in all, it was a good stay.
