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 KingdomI booked the apartment because I read the review that said it was 0.6 km from the station. It’s not on foot it’s about 45 minutes up some of the steepest roads I’ve ever come across. The address in booking.com doesn’t appear on the property. Taxi in town refused the fare. There were no instructions on how to use the television and what the WiFi code is. Also no toilet roll. If you have a car this is less of an issue as you could nip into town in ten minutes on foot it’s over an hour round trip.
The view from the terrace is excellent and the apartment is modern and clean.

CanadaDistance from Pinhau. Ad is deceptive. 2 km - all up steep inclne - to apartment. Impossible to reach without car. Taxis in town refused to come up because road so bad. Owners provided transport but at 13 euros a trip, very expensive option. Never would stay there again without car.
Scenic view.

PortugalI think it would ha e been useful to know in advance that the access is on a very steep rod. My driver who is Portuguesee was really quite scared, but certainly not for a novice driver
Wonderful view

CanadaRecommend better signage to the property - a sign at the entry to the road turnoff with distance to property and a sign/arrow at the property itself. As we climbed the road we were worried we might have missed the property.

AustraliaIt would have been great to have had a kettle and teabags on hand for a cup of tea. Some towel rails and hooks would also come in handy.

IsraelWe came to see the wonderful views of the valley of Douro, and were quite pleasantly surprised to have the view on the terrace of my room. There was no big problem to reach the room by foot in daylight (we don't carry heavy luggage), and when we needed a ride in the evening, we were well inspired to approach the room owner, that also runs a bar in the town, near the rail station.

SwitzerlandWe didn't expect that the house was so far away and the way up was so steep. At the rain station they even didn't know the adress which does not exist in Pinhão. Booking.com should communicate that one has to take a taxi to go up (about 5 km). Once installed up there it is no problem to go back and forth to Pinhão by foot: A wonderful path trough the vineyards of 2 km)
Everything from A to Z. We had problems to enter the Suite because of my mobile which didn't work properly. The help over the telefon was perfect. Marvellous view. Very calm. There were wine, coffe and tea available . Very clean, comfortable matrases.

United KingdomDistance from Pinhău. Please read above. Also no cooking facilities (this is correct in description).
Fabulous view but NB we were moved from this Suite 5 to big apartment above because no cooking facilities & long walk from Pinhău. Ricardo incredibly help & generous in give us upgrade because Booking.com would not change distance from Pinhău from 3000ft to over 3km of steep, rough track or lonby Road.

United StatesThe unit we were given was NOT located 3000' or .6 miles from Pinhao. Our unit was a 15-20 min ride up a winding, narrow, gravelly road to a remote location not even close to .6 miles from the city center. In fact, if you look at the picture in the listing of the couple toasting wine glasses as they look down on the "tiny" Douro River . . . there's no way the unit is 3000' from the city center, which is right on the Douro River. The ad is very misleading & deceptive. When we shared our dismay with the check-in person, he suggested to avoid driving to the unit, that we use a local taxi . . . at our expense, of course, & IF they were available, which we felt was unacceptable. The hotel then offered us a room in the main city location for 1 nite, but it was not available for our 2nd nite. We stayed the 1 nite, but then had to find lodging else where. Which at this point, being in the Douro's busiest season, there was nothing available in Pinhao. We ended up having to drive 1+ hour to Viseu to find lodging for our 2nd nite & pay the increased cost of getting a last minute hotel! We asked Suite 5 to refund the 1 nite that we didn't actually stay at their facility, but they have refused & Booking.com has been of no assistance!!
We liked the fact that the hotel information stated that the hotel is located 3000' or .6 miles from Pinhao (city center), which meant we could walk to restaurants, shops & tastings & would not need to drive.
