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.).

RomaniaA bit noisy, you can hear people from other rooms and doors slamming. Our neighbours listened to music until 03:00 in the morning, but this is not the hotels's fault.
The room was very nice and clean. Very good breakfast with fresh vegetables and quality food. The view from the pool is awesome. The stuff is friendly and on weekends they organize all kind of activities for their tourists. Liqve music at the restaurant was very romantic.

United KingdomEverything was above my expectations!
Hotel Castelnor exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I stepped foot into the lobby, I was warmly welcomed by the friendly and attentive staff who ensured my check-in process was seamless. The hotel itself was a true gem, combining modern elegance with a cozy mountain lodge atmosphere. The rooms were tastefully decorated, providing a cozy sanctuary to unwind after a day of exploring the stunning surroundings. Every detail had been carefully considered to create a tranquil and comfortable environment. One of the highlights of my stay was the hotel's amazing spa. Situated amidst the serene mountainous landscape, the spa offered a range of luxurious facilities that left me feeling rejuvenated and refreshed, like indoor and outdoor pool, indoor and outdoor jacuzzi, wet and dry sauna and more other. The spa's tranquil ambiance truly added to the overall experience, allowing me to unwind and escape from the stresses of everyday life. The dining options at the hotel were equally impressive. The restaurant served a variety of delectable dishes, prepared with the highest quality ingredients. The menu showcased both local and international cuisine, providing a culinary experience that satisfied even the most discerning palate. Additionally, the attentive and friendly staff made dining an absolute pleasure, ensuring my needs were met and providing excellent recommendations. The hotel's location on Paltinis Mountain was truly idyllic. Overall, my stay at this 4-star hotel on Paltinis Mountain with its incredible spa was a truly unforgettable experience. The combination of impeccable service, luxurious amenities, and stunning natural surroundings created a haven of relaxation and indulgence. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a perfect blend of mountain adventure and pampering retreat.

RomaniaI didn’t like the children screaming at breakfast. I’m pretty sure that’s not something that management can (or should) fix though …
Location is great. Feels like a castle in the clouds. The facilities were very good as well. Room was spatious enough and very clean. SPA is nice. It was a bit crowded but it was to be expected. It was a weekend. It would have been worrying if it wasn’t I guess. The restaurant is very good. Pricing is a bit steep but I gues it comes with the view. All in all it was a great experience. Will definitely return.

SwitzerlandThere is only one small elevator strangely located at the end of the hallway and it does not go all the way to the floor with the Spa area, so you need to walk around and take the stairs which can turn a bit uncomfortable if you ever forget anything in the room and have to go back and forth. Rooms are nice overall, only downside in terms of size they are a bit on the small end for 4* , same as the balconies (some balconies are bigger but depends on the luck what balcony size you get).
Castelnor is nicely located at the entrance of the Paltinis resort, a nice place to disconnect and relax and close to some ski slopes (few min by car to 'Arena Platos' ski area). The place is quite a nice blend of classic and modern, with a nice Spa area and pool downstairs, offering nice quality massage options as well. The rooms look nice and very clean, bathroom has walk-in shower and quite modern. Breakfast is very good with lots of variety of quality food. There is parking included for guests.

RomaniaI don't think the food was up to the level of the hotel and the spa. However, this does not mean that the food is bad, just not at the price level. This being valid specially for dinner, but also breakfast. The swimming pool was crowded and, allowing access to children, it could hardly be called part of the spa center.
The location is a real relaxation oasis with an extraordinary spa center. The massages were exceptional. Ideally for a weekend escape. The staff is friendly and always at your disposal.

RomaniaCouple of small things: at one point a loud noise started in the room like some loud pipes or someone having a shower noise. It was quite loud and disturbing. Another small issue was the variety of the minibar. One other small inconvenience was related to the bar/restaurant not beeing opened between 10:30 and 12:00. Another small regret was that i have asked them to bring me a flower bouquet (for a surprise) and they haven't managed to do so.
