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.).

Verified reviewThe newly refurbished rooms and facilities are nice to stay in, the balcony view from room 202 of the opposing mountain and town were nice too. Also the breakfast buffet was delicious with plenty of good protein options.
Can’t say anything bad about the hotel. I personally do not like carpet floors in rooms… maybe they should have opted for hard floor there. Otherwise all good.

Verified reviewFriendly staff, really helpful with local tips regarding the area. Accessible location near bus stop straight to old town. Michelin guide restaurant nearby. Clean comforable room. Good breakfast!
Double bed was 2 single beds out together in our case. Water pressure could be slightly stronger for my liking.

Verified reviewNice hotel on the bus line to go to old town. It seems to have been renovated recently . A parking is available to let the car.
Breakfast has a lot of choice but medium quality. 20mn by bus to Dubrovnik old town. The return is a bit more complicated to find where to stop.

Verified reviewWe had a good stay at the hotel with my family, we got 2 adjacent rooms which was a plus. Comfortable and clean rooms, I was a bit worried reading some reviews but we had a enjoyable and relaxing 2 nights. The hotel is located in Lapad which is about 10mins bus ride to the centre, which is easily accessible by taking bus 6 which is very frequent every 10mins to Old town which is the heart of Dubrovnik and walking distance to lapad promenade and new sea port There are many super markets and bakeries if you want to grab some yummy Burek (personal favourite were the meat and potato) there is also Cheese
We didn't have a problem, but some people may find the uphill climb of 5 mins a bit tiring, but it is a good work out 😉
Dear Charmagne, Thank you for your thoughtful review. We are pleased to hear you and your family enjoyed the comfortable rooms and convenient location in Lapad. We appreciate your helpful details about transportation and local spots. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we look forward to welcoming you again. Best regards

Verified reviewThe way I was treated as a guest. Very helpful and always ready with an answer.
The location itself is easily accessible by public transport. The hotel was located on a fairly steep hill, so there was always a bit of a climb.

Verified reviewGreat hotel that exceeded our expectations. Breakfast had a wide selection for all tastes. There was even filtered coffee available, which was a great bonus for people who don't like machine coffee.
It would be nice if the hotel would be located in a more well-kept area, but that's not a fault of the hotel, but rather of the area. Overall - the location was fine.
Dear Sarmite, Thank you for your lovely feedback! We are glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the small touches like the filtered coffee at breakfast. We appreciate your comments and look forward to welcoming you again! Best regards
