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 KingdomLeaving!
The hotel is compact and perfect. It has all the facilities needed for a perfect holiday. The staff are so friendly and helpful always. As it’s not a huge hotel, as so many of Funchal’s hotels are, the service is far more personal. The location,so close to the sea, makes for a wonderful view from every room and it’s so easy to relax to the sound of the waves.

BelgiumA bigger pool would be nice but not easy to fit in the space. TV was small but truth be told it was not the most necessary item.
The view from the balcony is just great! You can observe the sunsets and sundowns while in bed. Room looked just like in the photos. Staff was very nice and helpful and whatever requests we had were addressed without problem. There is a courtesy bus to and from the centre of Funchal - we have not used it but it is a nice touch. Great views from the terrace too where we enjoyed our breakfasts.

FinlandThe hotel is getting a bit old and the rooms could get a slight renovation. The age is also to be seen on the balcony - full of ants, but these are not harmful and can be ignored.
The absolute best part was the breakfast view - a breakfast outside with gorgeous view of the sunrise! We had as well a seaside room with absolutely stunning view! The personnel was really helpful, ready to service, answer questions and whatever for you! Amazing!

United KingdomOutside pool really small and surrounding sunbathing area a bit sparse. We were in a room that turned out to be directly above fitness centre and on a couple of days people were using noisy equipment from about 06.45 and this echoed up to our room meaning no alarm clock was needed to wake us up for breakfast 😏😏
staff really good, room and sea view balcony excellent. Really efficient and friendly reception staff who were always on hand to help. Waiting staff also really friendly especially Marta Silva.

PortugalI am still looking for it...
The staff is very nice and professional, the view is astonishing (including from the restaurant on the terrace), the breakfast buffet is perfect and... as it is an 'adults only' hotel, there is no noise from difficult-to-manage kids (and we had four children but it is, nevertheless, good to be in a quiet place... ;-). All in all, our stay was perfect and this hotel is, without any doubt, in the Top 3 of all hotels we booked in Portugal - where we live - during the last 3 years. Highly recommended and thank you for having made our stay in Funchal so enjoyable. Thumbs up to this hotel, to the General Manager and to her staff !

United KingdomWe always book a premium room, this one had a smaller balcony without the comfortable couch we are used to. Also Hotels always provide fruit and bottled water on your first day but nothing after that. If the room was taken on a nightly basis they would have to replace them every day. Why are guests penalised for loyally staying multiple nights. Annoying.
Adults only, small and friendly, great staff, parking on site, free shuttle into Funchal
