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 KingdomHot drinks at breakfast took too long to be served. I quite often had finished before my tea had brewed. The water in the room was not always restocked daily.
Masseur very experienced. TV tech advanced, could chrome cast Netflix from our phones.No bottleneck in Wi-Fi. The breakfast selection is excellent and tasty. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful.

United KingdomNothing not to like...the pool was a a plunge pool and you need to watch your step going in and out.
The staff were extremely polite, engaging and friendly. The breakfast was superb. Views were marvellous! The bedrooms were spacious and beds were comfy. It was in a great location as we walked to the beach and then walked into the city, with a market on our doorstep. I thought it was value for ££ and so did my friends. The icing on the cake was the rooftop terrace where the staff were very accommodating. I have recommended this hotel since returning :)

SwitzerlandBecause Gaia is a bit "off the beaten path", our tour companies wouldn't pick us up from the property. And because Uber and Bolt aren't considered "public transportation", they had to go the long-way around to cross the river into Porto. Not a major issue, just need to include extra time to get around.
The two bedroom suite was huge, and the room was impeccably clean. It was great to receive a stocked fridge ready to enjoy some cool beverages all included in our rate as well. It kept us from having to immediately run out to the store. Breakfast was excellent, and service throughout the hotel was wonderful. Being in Gaia meant great access to the Port Wine cellars which was very nice, and from the Rebello there are spectacular views of Porto and the bridges.

United KingdomBooked this for my parents. This is what they had to say: Truly wonderful stay at this beautiful hotel. Probably one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed in. The interior design (& the exterior) are amazing throughout with our room being no exception. Very spacious & comfortable suite with everything you could need plus the fabulous view from our balcony. Complimentary drinks were a welcome treat as were the delicious little goodies left for us when we had been out all day. The whole staff team were excellent, really friendly & helpful but not intrusive. We would most definitely recommend this hotel for a visit to Porto & we will hopefully be returning in future.

Beautiful hotel opened less than a year ago. The view from the room/bed was exceptional, the room/studio very comfortable. Everything very clean and staff also exceptional. Fantastic choice for breakfast and complimentary drinks in the fridge upon arrival. Staff were very attentive to make sure our stay was a good one.

LuxembourgValue for money? Somehow hotel does miss a vibe and atmosphere, despite all the beautiful decorations. Inside pool too cold to relaxed during the winter-spring season.
The staff are the kindest and nicest people, they are totally worth 5stars. Location is also great, hotel is stylish and tastefully refurbished.

Portugal1. spa /pool to many rules . It is Portugual - make it less complicated 2. in front of the hotel is the river bank. I know it doesn't belong to the hotel but it looks like the hotel and is full of plastic bottles etc. It wouldn't hurt to go there once a week just to pick up the trash. The street is also the face of the Hotel
Hotel is incredible and super comfortable. The interior decoration project is extraordinary. The restaurant is beautiful. 5 star breakfast Location is not in the city center but very easy to access on foot or by Uber car and it is very quiet - I prefer not to stay in the center as it is very confusing at night. The bed and the room really are maximum comfort - perfect soundproofing. On top of the cake: the staff - they are unbelievably friendly Keep up the good work!
