How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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 food. I couldn’t find good quality. The fruits all very bad: peach, very green bananas, old oranges, plum expired. And the meals were ok but taste not so convincing. Need more salt, and more flavours. I couldn’t find definitive see products from supermarkets: Canned goods from the supermarket

Verified reviewThe hotel was very clean.
The room was kinda old fashioned and the food was very disappointing. especially lunch, the food was very dry, choices were very limited. Even when we did lunch right after they openend the filet tasted like it was already under the heating lamb for hours and very very dry. They should really hire a new chef. Also just a sandwich for lunch would also have been nice.

Verified reviewVery nice hotel with fantastic services (e.g. animation team, 0-24 gym, transfer etc...). Room with balcony and comfortable bed. Restaurant has wide range of food selection, staff is extremely kind. Super beach bar with quite good healthy food selection. Nice guests 🥰
Distance from the beach (but transfer is available), refurbishment is needed for the bathrooms, limited selection of vegan foods

Verified reviewSpacious rooms and good breakfast
Wait times at the front desk can be very lengthy especially at check-in although you pre check in online you still have to queue and wait to check in at the front desk. Also my room wasn’t ready by the check in time so I had to wait which was a little inconvenient
Dear Shani, We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. We regret that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. The wait time during check-in and the delayed room preparation were not representative of our usual service standards.

Verified reviewThis is my second time staying at Barcelo, I stayed for a whole week and it was Beautiful again. It’s exactly what and where it needs to be. Decent sized room depending on where you are in the Hotel. Beautiful Views. Great Staff and Great Service.
Unfortunately my bathroom has a bad smell which I think was due to the Pipes but that is my only complaint.

Verified reviewThe location for what I required was excellent. Parking on site is a bonus but plenty of on street parking nearby. Breakfast choices to suit all tastes. Beds very comfortable.
Television has only two channels in English and BBC did not play well. Unable to find any information on in house entertainment, the interactive screen was not working whenever I tried to use it. The teacups in the room were not clean.

Verified reviewLocation was good and the hotel offered parking - for a small charge. The room was quiet and had a good view of the pool and mountains. The bed was comfortable and linen clean.
The room needed a thorough deep clean, dusty skirting boards, cobwebs on the ceiling and dust on the pictures. The lighting in the bedroom was totally lacking, two bedside lights were the only lighting. If you dropped something at night you would have to wait until morning in the hope of finding it. The television played no English stations, only Sky news. BBC and ITV came up but with no signal. The bathroom really needed some work, the toilet was very low, most unsuitable for the elderly or those with mobility problems. Mould around the shower tray and silicone/grout, not cleaned off tiles on the walls and floor when it had been done. The choice of breakfast was OK, not the best and queuing at the hot drinks machines was a daily pain. I only ate once in the hotel in the evening but again, nothing to make me wish I had opted for half board! I could not find any details for evening entertainment, so unable to comment if there even was any.
Dear Guest, We appreciate that you took the time to share your experience with us. We are sorry to hear that certain aspects of your room did not meet your expectations. A comfortable and well-appointed environment is what we aim for every guest. We regret any inconvenience caused by the room cleanliness and lighting. Moreover, we apologize for the issues encountered with the television and bathroom facilities. We also acknowledge your remarks regarding the breakfast choice, evening meal, and the lack of information about our evening entertainment. We are pleased that you found our location convenient, and that our parking facilities were to your satisfaction. It is also rewarding to know that you enjoyed the tranquility of your room and the lovely views it offered. Nonetheless, we are delighted that the comfort of the bed and the cleanliness of the linen contributed to your restful stay with us. Our team takes great pride in providing a serene and inviting atmosphere for our guests, and we're glad that these elements enhanced your experience. We are hoping to welcome you back in the future.
