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.).

ItalyThe lady who cleans the room does not do it properly: floors were dirty after cleaning, towels were not always changed. We were staying 6 days and just once the room was cleaned. We asked 2 times as the hotel is ecological, but they forgot and no one came to clean, just after a call to reception. Things were given to laundry for cleaning, but white shirts became yellowish. Juices and coffee the ones that are suggested for breakfast were quite bad: no taste and juices are mixed with water too much.
The hotel is new and the rooms are quite big. Spa is included and breakfast was quite good. Location is perfect, 10 minutes from the waterfront.

United KingdomParking is a nightmare in the evening as the car park is always full, so we had to park creatively on the hotel front quite a few times. Some of the front desk staff could be friendlier as well.
This hotel was absolutely lovely and I am not sure one can't find a better view elsewhere in Funchal in such a central location. We really enjoyed our stay there and having the breakfast included is a bonus.

United KingdomIt took ages for us to check in despite the online link.
This is a fantastic hotel. Very spacious and well maintained. Obviously the views are amazing but the staff are also lovely and friendly and the food and drink we had was all of a very high standard, fresh and always varied. We only had breakfast included in our stay but we ate some lunches at the pool bar which is fabulous and also ate a buffet dinner one evening. We were quite a large group in 3 studio rooms which were all perfect for our needs. Some used the spa and the reports were good. It was close enough to walk into Funchal. Very much enjoyed.

United KingdomWonderful hotel. The service was fantastic - efficient and friendly. We had the deluxe benefits to our room package (room upgrade, extra breakfast menu and discount in the bar plus other benefits) which was definitely worth it. Everywhere very clean and very stylish. Views incredible. Pool and spa were excellent. Cocktail bar was great. Cannot recommend highly enough - would love to return!

SwitzerlandThe staff could have been more friendly and forthcoming. They were polite but not very service-oriented.
Very nice and modern hotel with fantastic views over Funchal and the ocean. At the same time, in perfect walking distance to the Funchal city center. The pool terrace was amazing and enjoying a drink after your swim with a great view on sunset was a must every day.

BelgiumWe wanted to have a meal in the evening, but they work with buffet service. We would have liked to order from the menu.
I liked the vibe of the hotel and the decor. Thea breakfast is rich with choise, fresh and tasty and with amazing views. In the evening there is live music in the coctail bar. The room is nice, bed comfortable. They have “pillows menu”, where you can order a pillow of your taste. I haven’t seen that in any other hotel. The spa facilities are very nice. Cost for guest 5 eur/use of spa is reasonable. Overall we had a very pleasant stay.

United KingdomThe walk up the hill after an evening wining and dining in Funchal 😂 (Bolt taxis were super easy to set up though, like Uber)
Modern hotel, beautifully and calmly decorated. The staff were all wonderful, couldn’t do enough for you. They helpfully arranged an early 3:45am taxi to the airport in our final day. We enjoyed being pampered here, having spent 5 nights in a self-catered apartment in Porto Moniz with lots of hiking! The facilities were excellent e.g. the spa area, outdoor pool and bar, free parking for hire car. We had a deluxe room so enjoyed the perks that came with this e.g. a la carte breakfast menu made to order, pillow menu, 15% off any drinks in the bars. Speaking of bars, the cocktails available were brilliant and happy hour was always something we tried to take advantage of! We loved the eco room-cleaning incentive too. So, for every day you chose not to have your room cleaned, you would receive €3 off your bill at the end. They still popped in to top up essentials like toilet roll! Had we have had more time, we’d have loved to book in to Desarma, the 1 Michelin-starred restaurant on the top floor; perhaps next time!
