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 KingdomLarger towels in the rooms would be a welcome addition.
The decor was lovely - traditional building, with great rooms, and a balcony. The pool was excellent and a welcome bonus for a central hotel. Staff were great, and provided some welcome insights to places to see, eat, and enjoy !

United KingdomOur room was a little dark and wasn’t to my taste in decor but that is a personal thing. Would have liked a long mirror in the room.
We loved the quiet location, staff were very friendly and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. Very clean and well maintained property

United KingdomMaison Cabrel is a sanctuary from the busy hussle and bussle of Porto. As soon as you arrive you feel calm and happy. The warm welcome and great advice from Alberto was invaluable. After a busy day out sightseeing to come back to a dip in the pool and honesty bar it was perfect. We cannot wait to return.

SwitzerlandNothing really. We just did not realise the bed would be rather small but as there is another one in the room, it can be used if one is in need of space
The house is in a quiet area yet within walking distance of the center. The room we had was very clean. We also very much enjoyed being able to do a few laps in the pool at the end of the day

AustraliaA lovely small hotel in a quiet neighbourhood but very easy to walk into the old city. Susanna was delightful and so helpful including ringing multiple taxi companies when I lost my phone, booking day trips and providing great local (less touristy) food recommendations . A real gem I will stay there again.

CanadaMaison Cabral is a lovely boutique hotel in a beautifully restored historic building in a quiet but very convenient area of Porto. It is extremely well managed and well maintained with lots of character. You can tell that much thought went into the modern design and higher end fixtures and finishes. The owners and staff are very professional and helpful. We took their suggestions for nearby restaurants and walking routes and were not disappointed. We would definitely like to return in the future.

Do not hesitate to book Maison Cabral! The perfect location for starting your walks around Porto, and our apartment (Wapa, the one with the loft) was beautifully appointed and very comfortable. Susana communicated with us before the trip and through our flight delays. She was consistently warm and welcoming upon arrival and throughout our stay, plus always made sure we had local recommendations on places to dine. The honor bar was well-stocked and very nice to have available to us. The apartment was cleaned and made up each day while we were out. Our apartment overlooked the street below, so if you are sensitive to noise you might want to consider that but we took a sound machine and it was no issue. Also, there is a house cat, Luchino, who would be in the reception area when we get back each day and our daughter loved, so if you are allergic then you might choose another location. Overall, we would stay here again and it made our first trip to Porto very special.

SpainThe reception upon arriving was exceptional. The rooms are very very clean and comfortable. It was raining and a Sunday when we arrived so places to eat were all closed. The place is like row houses in different state of remodel and all have the potential of being very interesting as does the area. Again we arrived at a bad time and left early the next morning so cant say too much about the area. Id say the remodel is first class but you may find the rooms on the small side but really are adequate. You well be very welcomed here!
