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.).

SwitzerlandThe first room we were given had a strong smell of mould, which unfortunately is present in quite a few of the other rooms judging by the reviews. We've noted that with reception and they quickly arranged an alternative, so top marks for that. Also the doors aren't that good with sound proofing so if you're a light sleeper you might have troubles with people passing by or birds and bats screaming in the night or early morning. Cleanliness was ok, although not 10 out of 10
Good choice of dining venues, all with good quality food even for the buffet. We've had a grilled fish for 20 euros that was really exceptional. Same goes for breakfast, ample choice with view on the sea. The beds are super comfortable and they make for a really good night sleep. Room is spacious enough, although it starts to feel a bit dated. They are renovating bit by bit, so shortly they should all be updated. The staff is helpful and kind and since we are expecting a baby they decorated the bed with good wishes that was very sweet! The location is one of the best on the island, nearby you'll find shops, restaurants, some nightlife and beach bars. Also the sunsets are amazing and it is arguably the best spot on the island to appreciate them

United Arab EmiratesThey gave a crappy room to us initially, coz we checked in early. They changed it by evening a great room. They are very cautious about the billing of restaurant food that they insist on immediate payment. Though we booked for two days, they denied to bill it on room.
They gave us very good room subsequently when we requested for the same. They arranged a surprise champagne for us for our anniversary.

SpainNeeds a renovation, but worked fine for us. Waiters insisted saying that there was no local beer available, while they kept on serving it in other tables, which was quite weird.
Staff was really nice and got us a packed breakfast for our early flight. Nice location right on the beach with spacious rooms and a beautiful view. Good buffet for dinner including live grilling.

United Arab EmiratesAs we had to check out, the staff suggested to keep our luggage in the luggage room till our taxi came. They put bands on our bags and gave us a slip with the matching number. When we came to collect our bags the staff could not locate them. We were over 30 minutes waiting for our bags. Each member of staff couldn’t recall taking the bags even though we handed them to the manager, he still refused to take accountability. Turns out they were placed back up in the room. It was a genuine mistake but the staff didn’t handle it correctly and were refusing to acknowledge their mishap. It was an unfortunate end to a lovely stay.
Excellent location, right on the beach! The rooms were lovely and stunning views.

ItalyThe hotel deserves a renovation (part of it is already under construction). Good room and comfortable beds, but the air conditioners need to be cleaned regularly otherwise there is humid air in the room. Breakfast always the same. I do not recommend their buffet restaurant (expensive and not very good)
The hotel is in a perfect position, close to restaurants and street food. Their Indian and Japanese restaurants are really good! Staff is very nice (specially Ezra)

United StatesIf you are light sleeper you will have some issues here. I didn’t liked that there is construction. Even if you want to sleep late because you are on vacation forget about that. Literally from 9am-6pm every single day(except Sunday, we were blessed with some afternoon peace that day). We couldn’t fully enjoy, because the soundproof of room is so bad. You could hear anything, no matter where are you staying. You could hear neighbors above you moving chairs, you can hear staff talking close to your room, but you have feeling that they are inside of your room. Without that our stay would be 10. Breakfast buffet could use some variety, every single day was the same except for fruit( they can put some effort there). Coral Asia restaurant really expensive for what they are offering(staff not interested at all, late food, quality of the food so so.)
We had such a nice time at Coral. We were really lucky to get one if the newest room and thank goodness for that. Our room(322) 3rd floor is such a beautiful space, everything was brand new, designed with taste. No issues there. Definitely an ocean view room, because the location of hotel is literally on the beach. We only had breakfast buffet, it’s okay. Decent amount of food. Daily cleaning, really nice staff.

United KingdomIt's a large old fashioned 70s hotel which could do with a bit of refurbishment but we didn't mind that. Overall would definitely stay there again.
Fantastic location right on the beach with good beachside restaurant lovely for evening drinks and watching sunset. Gave us an upgrade to superior seafront room with fantastic views. Very well organised and provided us with shower room and use of all facilities on last day due to late flight. All staff lovely, friendly and helpful. Close to other restaurants and bars further along beach.

SwitzerlandUnfortunately there is construction going on, and made it difficult for our afternoon naps ;-)
The hotel itself is a little dated in decor, but it makes up for it with their staff. Everyone is so attentive and willing to help. I would call out Jemmalyna at the restaurant who despite had a challenging time to split the bill among 12 people, she always had a friendly attitude and remained very professional. Elsie was our waitress a few times as well and is so lovely, friendly and goes the extra mile. When checking out, I met with Millie at the front desk who I was interacting with via messaging and is also a great asset to the hotel. The beds are very comfortable, and the view from our balcony was very pleasant.
