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.).

PortugalAlthough the room was clean, it didn't appear well maintained. The walls needed painting, the surfaces were old and run down... It wouldn't have been a problem in a 3 star hotel but we felt like it didn't match the 4 star classification (in regards to rooms, the remaining hotel was really well maintained with a perfect old new balance, especially the dinning area)
The facilities were amazing. They had a snooker table, table tennis, tennis court, football field, spa, inside and outside pool and gym ALL included in the price, free of charge (even the snooker) The staff are really nice and helpful. The hotel is clean and the food is amazing, with fresh ingredients and a lot of variety.

PortugalWas away from city centre. Would be little difficult if you don’t have your own car. A kettle to have a tea or coffee is advisable ( referring to 4star hotel standards). Also, having a fridge with some drinks would be appreciated.
The is situated at the top of the mountain out of Braga city centre. It was nice and calm environment. Breakfast was good, facilities were good. Food in the restaurant was delicious too.

RussiaWiFi in the hotel just don't work. Poor signal or no signal at all in our room. In the lobby there was good signal, but after connecting there was no internet connection through the hotel WiFi. Nevertheless, hotel management is determined to help and give me access to the closed network for hotel staff, and I could sit near reception and work. Thanks a lot!
Great quiet hotel with the nice pool. Beautiful place, I Love it. People is very supportive and helpful. Total blackout curtain in the room, I'm very sensitive to night light and this curtain was VERY good. There are several places for walking near the hotel.

United KingdomThe whole exterior (at the back) and some of the interior could do with an update. Pool was nice but really needed some maintenance. It needed a clean of leaves/bugs. Tiles around the pool very uneven. Sunbeds uncomfortable. Some parasols broken. Having said this we did still use the pool and pool area. Pillows in the room we’re not great. Once plug socket in the room didn’t work and in the other room the fridge was broken (they did replace this but then the door on the outside of the fridge wouldn’t shut. The hairdryer were awful. I did ask if they had any others and they didn’t.
Breakfast was great. Room was lovely and had a balcony which we were not expecting. Most of the staff were very helpful. Location was beautiful.

PortugalThe room was slightly old and the furniture was coming out of the wall, which was dangerous for my baby. The Interior Pool was really good but the water should have been slightly warmer and the Jacuzzi wasn't working.
The staff was amazing and made us feel at home. The Place was really nice and the surroundings were perfect, a lot of things to visit and see nearby.

United StatesWi-fi is the worst I've experienced in all the hotels that say they have wi-fi in all my life... Not having wifi in a room and saying you do it's just not acceptable. All the other ratings (that I saw afterwards) state the same, the hotel should really try to sort it out, we're in 2021!

AustraliaVery old hotel in need of updating and painting even in common areas. Room furniture badly damaged, window areas blistering with water damage, some mould, needs painting. The grounds around pool uneven and dated. Service for drinks and food was very slow. The ordered cod, it was full of bones and the pasta with prawns was very bland, the prawns overcooked and tough
Location outside busy city and access to surrounding areas. Huge potential but would only rate at possibly a 3-star but definitely not a 4-star hotel in current condition

FranceIf you are looking for a 4 star hotel, avoid this hotel. I booked it for a bit of luxury (having stayed in a Golden Tulip hotel before) and some relaxation for 3 days Our room was smelly, with stains of the floor, black grout in bathroom, cracks in walls, flaky paint, torn sheets in the bed that the chamber maid redone 3 mornings without thinking it was wrong to have 40 cm hole in the bed linen…. In other words, we didn’t get the bedroom shown on the pictures! There were no dressing gown, not 4 pillows; I was told “all bedrooms are the same” so I don’t know where those lovely bedrooms are!? instead of relaxation we went out and didn’t come back till 10pm just to sleep. I filled in a satisfactory questionnaire on the second day as they “wanted their guests to enjoy their stayed” but nobody got back to me. I lost 20 minutes of my holiday for nothing. Not sure how this hotel still has 4 stars...
