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.).

We had a fabulous stay at Goldnature. The owners, Noberto and Paula created 5star accommodation in Gondomar. From the moment we arrived until we left, everything was 100% perfect! You could not ask for better accommodation and for better hosts! We will definitely stay at Goldnature again.

A beautiful property with one of the nicest hosts we have encountered on our travels. The room is lovely, parking is secure & easy. The host gave us perfect simple directions to drive to & park in Porto. This is a special place to return to after a day in the city (easy to find at night). Breakfast was delicious- not a buffet, but cooked just for us with eggs, meat & cheese, fresh fruit & breads. Highly recommend this property!

United KingdomThe only disappointment was Gondomar itself - which is a bit of a backwater and lacking in good restaurants. However, this doesn’t matter too much as the city is easy to get into.
Wonderful oasis outside historic Porto. Perfect place to escape the city heat and noise, whilst having easy access. Noberto and Paula are perfect hosts and Goldnature has been created with extraordinary style and attention to detail.

RomaniaBreakfast was too French to my taste, as we don’t eat fruits and pastry for breakfast back home. But otherwise it was good. Luckily, you can ask for vegetables (from their own garden).
This was the best place we could find around Porto. It has a large yard, and it is clean and quiet. I especially appreciated that Norberto, the manager, found us a place to have a good dinner even when the place was usually closed when we arrived.

If I could rate this property higher than a 10, I would. The owners, Norberto and Gerel, are absolutely fabulous! They have built this property with such care and consideration with a vision of offering a restful retreat for any traveler and they have exceeded that goal. The grounds, agriculture and buildings have all been designed with great attention to building a soothing aesthetic. You could visit here on vacation and never want to leave -- that's what happened to us. Parking and breakfast are included with the stay. The breakfast is very, very plentiful and wonderful -- pastries, fresh fruit, eggs, bacon, cold cuts, fresh orange juice, and the coffee was the best we had in Portugal. We only wish they served other meals as well! The hosts are welcoming, warm and feel like long-time friends by the end of the stay. Our visit here was pure perfection!

PolandNegatives? Well, the breakfast was so big and delicious and so well prepared with care and attention that we felt we had to eat all of it... so on top of the restaurant recommendations, we may not eat again for the next week now we are home. :) The weather forecast for our trip was surprisingly gloomy for June and the day we arrived it rained a bit. But we mentioned this to Norberto and he must have arranged something asthe other days were hot and sunny, so I have come back slightly red in places... but those are the only slightly negatives... Ok, seriously, the room is well-designed and has AC, but we left the door open at times to let fresh air in.
When planning a long weekend in Porto, I gave my wife 3 options: a 5* place in the centre, a quirky/cool option in the city or a nice looking place outside of town, but still close. Fortunately she picked the slightly out of town option - Goldnature as we had anexcellent stay there. The place is nicely done, with thought and attention, it was clean, had everything we needed and was well looked after. We didn't use the pool, but that looked good too. The location is nice, a short drive from the centre (7-8 euro by Uber and easy by car). But the thing that made it so great was the host, Norberto. He is a lovely guy who really cares about his guests. We arrived quite late, direct from the airport and he recommended a local restaurant and booked us a table - it was excellent. Then he helped us plan our visit to Porto and suggested some great things. Then suggested a nice fresh fish area for that evening. And the best thing was arranging for his friend - Helder - to guide us around the vineyards of the Duoro Valley - a highlight of any trip to Porto. We had the best day, came back tipsy and happy. Everything about the trip was great.

The owners of this small place are beyond great, working at a five star level of service. I rarely leave reviews but this place was well worth our stay. We had initially booked at a different property but that place smelled. We booked this at the last minute, arrived an hour later to be treated like welcome old friends. The couple that owns and runs this place have done an excellent job of developing a spa like experience. Light pleasing music playing in courtyard, constant running water spout to give reading feeling. Set in an old farm house but with very high quality modern touches. The owner is a designer and has put in hard work to blend the old and new. The breakfast made fresh with farm fresh fruit and eggs was excellent, better than what I have had at Ritz Carlton in Florida. Great coffee, bread, cheeses, fruits, home made kiwi ham. Etc. Location is peaceful and relaxing, only 15 minutes to Porto, one KM to a river walk. Only stated two days but wish we had more time there. The room was spotless clean, bed very comfortable and great pillows. Easy parking. Nice garden and pool (did not have time to use pool) Will be recommending this to all my friends. The couple spent some time talking with the concept of this place and what they were trying to achieve. They have done well and wish them all the success fo this business!!!

The owners were fantastic, so accommodating and pleasant. They truly cared about the guests. Grounds were beautiful and super well maintained. Breakfast was exceptional, super fresh and great variety with a high quality. Be sure to check out the little common room and bar. Norberto makes a mean gin and tonic 😉. Would recommend and stay again without hesitation.
