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.).

The location, right on the beach is great and our room opened onto the sand. Perfect! The staff were very friendly and it was lovely staying in a place with interesting history, that is unique and quirky!

United KingdomThis is the Netherlands West Indies, how about some traditional Dutch food, beers? Might want to sort out the back up genset, handy if any further blackouts. But great little hotel, if not a bit pricey now.
Beautifully positioned on the Beach, stayed here five years ago and the management has changed. The Hotel & the Dutch side of St. Maarten as a whole is moving away from the colonial Netherlands in the sun, to an extension of the USA. There is nothing wrong with that, but for me loosing that Dutch charm is a loss. The food has also moved to a more American menu, how much burger & ribs can you eat? Still fantastic weather, clean beaches, incredible waters. If you like the aircraft, a view roof for watching the take offs & landings, bit of fun.

United StatesOur unit was dated but that added to the atmosphere. We were right next to the airport runway, but flights ended early and the noise was not too bad.
The island vibe was great. The property is right on a sand beach with lovely views of the Simpson Bay area. The open-air restaurant and bar were great, and the food was excellent. Staff were helpful and the property was lush with greenery and a welcoming atmosphere. They have resident dogs, cats, fish, and “watch” turtles. Our unit was quaint.

United StatesMary's Boon is in a great location near all the restaurants and bars in Simpson's Bay and and right on the beach. Nice pool on property. We had a great dinner and breakfast at the restaurant as well. The airport is nearby so you do hear the planes taking off during the day but didn't bother us. Very authentic and historical vibe at the property. Would definitely stay here again!

Bonaire St Eustatius and SabaThere was no soap in the room, the wardrobe in the bathroom was outdated. I got shocked when turning on the light in the room. There was a little sign next to it, but of course I only noticed it after the fact. Because of the placement of the beds, the ac was too cold for the one on the bed closer to it and not cold enough for the person sleeping the farthest away from it.
I am happy that we had a room closeby the gate as we only were there to spend the night and had to catch an early flight. The beds were very comfy and it was just great that the backdoor opened right on the beach. I liked that I was able to arrange transportion to the airport for the morning after.

United StatesWe arrived on a Saturday for one week. The pool was closed/ no water. Office staff said it should be ready by Tuesday. It wasn't ready until Friday so we only had one day to use it. That was very disappointing. We prefer the pool to the ocean because it's safer for non-swimmers like us.
Had a microwave in our room. Plugged into an outlet that didn't work. Once I moved it and plugged it into a different outlet, it worked great.
