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 KingdomAbsolutely nothing, just book it!
What can I say, absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! This was a trip to remember! The staff were so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We did wine tasting with Andreia, it was amazing, again so knowledgeable and funny! We had a ball. I don’t even know where to begin with our suite, it was so special, the views, the grounds and facilities were nothing short of phenomenal.

United KingdomFantastic location with beautiful landscaping. The vineyard is filled with wild flowers at this time of year and the walk down to the river to catch the boat was very special. Breakfast was very good - particularly the freshly squeezed orange juice (I'd guess from the estate) and the snack sandwich we had on arrival (roast beef) was AMAZING! Very helpful staff. I highly recommend.

United StatesThe only downside was that you could easily hear other guests in the hallway and the opening and closing of their room doors, cabinets, etc. This is certainly not enough of a complaint to keep us from coming back to this fantastic hotel!
My husband and I stayed at the hotel for part of our honeymoon and can't get over how beautiful the property is. We arrived on a sunny afternoon and were immediately blown away. It felt like we were walking around a postcard. Once we checked in, we never left the property for the remainder of our time in the Douro Valley. There is so much to explore and do and excellent wine to taste. Perhaps the most incredible part of our stay was the food. Everything is fresh and either grown on site or traded with neighboring farms. We haven't stopped talking about the breakfast croissants made with port wine syrup or the caramelized apple pancakes. When the rain rolled through, we played cards and read in one of the common areas that still allowed us to enjoy the spectacular views. We can't recommend this hotel and quinta enough. It was one of our best getaways yet!

United StatesWished we could have spent more time at Ventozelo...
The vineyard setting and views are amazing, and the service and quality of food in the restaurant was tops. The front staff was extremely friendly and helpful (e.g., providing audio guide for a walk around the property). A glass of wine, soft music playing, and a view of the sun setting over the hills - what could be better!

CanadaThere is nothing about this place not to like--or love.
A vacation within a vacation. A true 5-star experience on a magnificent estate above the Douro, a former winery with a handful of luxurious lodges with breathtaking views scattered amid the vineyards. Warm, attentive, personal service. Excellent restaurant with top-notch Ventozelo winelist. Highly, highly recommended.

United KingdomNot a big issue, only consideration was that you don't see the vista at night so with full on lights set against a black background, the dining area felt cold - background music and dim lights to showcase the surroundings might create something more special.
First and last thing that we remember about Ventozelo is the engagement with staff, all were lovely and informative. One in particular was a lovely lady we spoke to at breakfast and lunch, who explained the workings of the estate having been there a while, a wonderful ambassador for the Quinta. The room was comfortable, well facilitated, and had a lovely outside space for a relaxing afternoon and/or evening. The whole location was very well set up for a fulfilling trip, the museum was fantastic and educational, as were the walking trips that were available with guided audio.

United StatesThe drive up to the Quinta is not for the faint of heart. You will need your own car to explore the area.
The views and setting are spectacular!! Absolutely breath taking. The breakfast was generous and delicious. The staff was kind and the facilities were impecably clean. We wish we had better weather to enjoy the pool. The grounds are gorgeous and the patio with a drink is the place to be on a sunny day.

Did not leave the property for two days and never bored. Two staff were outstanding - Jesica welcomed us on arrival and was very helpful and made us feel very welcome. Jaime in the restaurant was also extremely welcoming, pleasant and helpful - nothing was too much trouble.

This hotel is INCREDIBLE. Seriously the highlight of our trip. The grounds are beautiful and the hotel allows you to walk many different trails through the vineyards and woods. The infinity pool was technically closed for the season, but it was warm enough that they let us swim. The room was beautifully designed and very spacious. We got to do a wine tasting at the estate, and also eat at the restaurant. Amazing hotel, will definitely go back!
