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):
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.).

United StatesLocation is off center, requires 10 -15 minutes walk downhill, very tough uphill. Luckily there is a good funicular connection, making getting back to the hotel easier.
We especially liked a spacious and wonderful swimming pool. Swam every morning with great pleasure. Hamam and sauna were ok, but very small

AustraliaNothing it was exceptional
We booked a triple room with a balcony and the room was incredible. The size of the room and balcony was spacious and looked out to a gorgeous green garden. They have thought of everything in the design and amenities. The bathroom has an enormous shower, separate toilet and a bath. The staff were amazing, very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. One of the best hotels we have stayed in. Location is right near the cathedral and a short walk down hill to old town.

United KingdomThe service at the hotel was fantastic. As soon as we arrived someone came out to greet us and show us into the very secure car park. Then we were given a full tour of the facilities before being introduced to our room. We had opted for a city view and the view was definitely worth it. The rooms were lovely and clean and the beds were very comfortable. It was our daughter’s birthday and they even left a card and a bag of caramels for her. It was a lovely touch. The hotel was in a brilliant spot for the old town and the Fourviere. It was easy to walk to everywhere we wanted to go to. It is a steep climb back up to the hotel from the old town so not for the unfit but there is a furnicular you can take if you want to. Over all a lovely hotel.

United StatesOur room was a "garden view" - but unfortunately, that view also let other buildings have a full view of us! We had to keep our curtains closed most of the time.
Staff was kind and so helpful in making reservations and suggestions on things to do. The room was great - but if you go, request a city view room! We were disappointed by our view - and privacy thereof.

AustraliaOur room didn’t have any tea/coffee making facilities. The blind in between the bathroom/bedroom didn’t work which meant we had to keep closing the curtains on the windows so no one could see into the bathroom. Plus when you turned the bathroom light on at night it woke my partner. Easy fix though just needed to be repaired!!!! Hall way to rooms had a slight musty smell and a tad tired. Breakfast so so.
Location was amazing and the staff were exceptional!!!!! A special mention needs to go to the Brazilian staff member. Villa Maia scored when they hired him. An absolutely exceptional worker.

United StatesNothing except perhaps the price, but expected this at a 5 star hotel. Because we had reservations for a city tour and then dinner at Paul Bocuse (20 minute taxi ride), we did not have a chance to dine at the hotel (one night stay only)
Location was fairly central and up on a hill that overlooked the city of Lyon and was so beautiful. Staff was very quick with showing us the rooms and facilities and explaining where to eat. The bar was chic and bartender was knowledgeable. Staff was quick to bring us anything we needed (e.g., an iron for pressing clothes).

United KingdomI found it close to perfection!
Staff are outstanding, so helpful, efficient and friendly. Receptionists, concierge team are fantastic. They helped plan my sightseeing and organised 2 great taxis during my stay. Housekeeping was also top notch and nothing was a problem. Very helpful bringing in extra bedding etc. Lovely room service and bar team. Great relaxing bar for drinks and meals. Fabulous bedroom overlooking garden. Faultless from beginning to end.

SingaporeUsability of some of the fittings in the rooms very poor: - The worst sink ever! Very stylish all-marble sink that allows just 3-4 inches between tip of faucet/tap and surface of sink! So washing hands requires you to tilt hands horizontally flat to risk touching the sink. Not clean because it doesn’t drain!! I was only able to pull the plug out with force and drainage was disgustingly filthy. Had to call in hotel staff to unplug and clean the filthy sink drainage - receptionist and concierge came instead of housekeeping!! - One bathroom had no cabinet nor vanity top space to place toiletry bags. - Bathroom bins had lids, so either you keep lifting off or partially off, or bend down to pull open the lid every time you wish to use the bin! - Toilet had a small remote control but with zero instructions! Turns out that it was a type of self wash bidet, discovered only after it sprayed out over the toilet bowl! - Breakfast room service choices have no prices published anywhere to help with room service selection. Took 2 tries before reception & room service understood and quoted me.
Lovely serene setting which is easily accessible to Old Town (without the noise) and nice modern+old architectural design. Very helpful concierge who assisted with restaurant and other plans & bookings.
