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.).

SwedenThe pool needs to be cleaned at least 2 times per day. The wifi is good if you need to send/read email and open pages. But it is impossible to stream. The Breakfast can be improved.
The staff always smiling. The cleaning of our room. The distance to the beach is very close max 2 min. Good beds and room size. The A/C is important and working good. Varm water. The hotel has a generator when there are electricity problems in the area They let us check out later when we asked.

QatarThey charged my card a week before time, when my booking clearly said 'pay at property'. Limited food variety for breakfast. External ladder that they use leads to the window in the bathroom. Rooms don't have telephone to call reception nor do they have TVs.
Quality of food was amazing! Great location. Big spacious room.

United KingdomPool isn’t as big as it looks in photos, only a couple of beds to sit on. Breakfast not much choice, could be better. Beds extremely uncomfortable, very hard. They gave us a free upgrade to the Queen suite but the bed was unbearable and no space to hang anything up so we moved back into the standard room. Advertises there’s a spa and wellness centre but there isn’t, just offer massages at a nearby hotel.
Great location, couple of minutes walk to the beach. Staff very friendly and helpful in booking day trips at good prices. Room very spacious, lots of space to hang up clothes etc.

Definitely recommend staying here! The stuff was very nice and helpful, the rooms are great and huge, nice pool and breakfast, and the hotel is very close to all the main attractions and yet very quiet.

Great staff, each and every one very attentive and responsive to guest needs. Breakfast could do with a little more variety, but it was very tasty anyway. Rooms are spacious and expertly cleaned each day. Location is 2 minutes from beach, 2 minutes from atm and 5 minutes walk to fantastic restaurants. Abely and all the front desk staff were great too. We were very sad to leave…..the kids felt at home here

United StatesI wish the property was right on the beach, but there’s only so much room to have beachfront. That is definitely not a dealbreaker.
My room was spacious, in addition to the sleeping area there was another section that had a daybed which was great if I wanted to lounge in the room but not on my bed. The food at the property was so good, the pool was nice and the beach is less than 5 min away walking.

United KingdomThe bar does not serve alcohol however Raymon went and got us some to keep in the fridge in the rooms. There were renovations going on which we should have been told about however they were in the day so did not disturb sleep etc and I believe finished the day we left.
Less than a minute to the stunning beach, restaurants, bars and market stalls on the walk down to beach. Big rooms and fab staff. Sarah, Mariam and Raymon couldn't be more helpful and welcoming.

NetherlandsOn occasion the water went off making it impossible to shower. This was usually quickly resolved but a bit inconvenient. Breakfast was ok but don't expect too much. Certainly don't expect European level coffee because most of Africa drinks instant coffee. If you really need a coffee and croissant fix, there's a cool French bakery just around the corner.
The hotel is located a little way from the beach but this makes for a quieter environment and the pool is for residents only. The beds are very comfortable but be warned, they are short at 1.80 m and have a head and footboard. I felt a bit cramped. Staff are relaxed and friendly. Sometimes there's a power cut but this is what you have to get used to in Africa.

There were many families with noisy kids. Compared to the size of the rooms, we didn't have a lot of storage for the clothes
