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.).

The size of the apartment was very big. The bed and sofa were very comfortable. The views are amazing day and night. The staff were very friendly. It was worth the short bus ride from Sintra. I liked the breakfast and service. Very good value for what I paid for it

United StatesI have a disability and didn't check about accessible rooms. Luckily, I can still climb stairs, so it worked out. Traveling alone without a car could be a problem; however, I felt completely safe and Uber is easy to use in the area.
The view was outstanding. From the porch , dining room, and pool you could see the Moorish fort and Pena castle. The breakfast was delicious, the staff and owner were professional and friendly. It was nice being in the country as well. It was nice to stay in a B&B again, plus it is an historic house.

Such a beautiful historical house! The salon, swimming pool, breakfast, service, vineyards, view just magical!!! You can literally step in and live in history but feel like home at same time!! Perfect location too if you want to visit Sintra attractions! But my personal favorite is to spend a slow day in this amazing house with enjoy view of Pena palace and castle, a slow time is totally worthy in here!

PolandThe only thing I would improve is not to start the garden works during the breakfast. I guess it is not a frequent activity so we were just not that lucky, but the sound of lawn mowers just a few meters away during breakfast was a bit disturbing. I think this could have been planned better.
Santa Maria Casa Nostra is a beautifully located mansion, decorated in an historical manner what makes you feel like you travel in time and end up in an aristocratic getaway 😊. We had a room with a fantastic panoramic view on everything that Sintra has to offer. External bathroom was no issue at all, as it was for an exclusive use for our room only. Everything was super clean. The host was really nice, helpful and caring. Nearby restaurants were within a walking distance from the place. We only spend one night there but I could not resist and took the pleasure of using a pool which I recommend to everyone. Breakfast was served on a terrace, and was really really good. We really wish we stayed longer there, and we will return if ever in the neighborhood.

The house and garden are both beautiful, well kept and spacious. The entire garden, area around the house is green and together with swimming pool make a great place to relax. The breakfast was super nice and the view from breakfast area is awesome, you can see all the castles. The host was very welcoming and helpful and loved practicing my Portuguese while getting all sorts of advices for visiting Sintra and around. House and room were very clean. Great stay overall

United KingdomWe had a room with an "exterior" bathroom, I thought it would be next to our room but it was down the corridor. The bathroom is very large and has a big step up into the shower which could be a problem for people with mobility issues.
Fabulous location with great views over to Sintra. Lovely gardens and pool though it was a bit too cool for sitting outside this week. Friendly staff who gave recommendations for local restaurants. It's an old house full of antique furniture but still has a laid back, relaxed atmosphere. Lovely breakfast!
