Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The breakfast here was one of the most amazing I’ve ever had, and I’ve stayed at many incredible hotels around the world. It was made with love and so beautifully prepared, upscale yet with local flavors and Mediterranean touches that made it so special. Stephen and Ian at the reception were both so kind, professional, and personable, and Tony was helpful as well. A special thank you to the gentleman who served breakfast on August 28th, he was truly wonderful. His kindness, positive energy, and professionalism stood out and made the morning unforgettable. The hotel itself is a dream. With only 10 rooms, it feels intimate and special, and the location in the heart of the old town right by the famous square couldn’t be better. I honestly don’t think you could choose a more perfect place to stay.

FranceLoved the place, stayed at Villa Dobrić and the room is cozy and classy. Bed is comfortable, AC very potent. The best part of the stay is how friendly the staff is. Vestibul is a hidden gem in the middle of old town, the staff kindly showed us the best route to access and hotel and helped us with the luggage on the many staircases Split Old Town have. Receptionist is very nice and helpful, I strongly suggest asking them for restaurant or sightseeing recommendation, they gave us several great tips. Breakfast was amazing, again the staff offered a great service and a very pleasant and entertaining conversation.

AustraliaIf you have mobility issues - there are a lot of stairs. Staff helped with our bags on arrival and departure.
We were travelling as a family of four with teenage kids and booked the two first floor rooms at Villa Dobric. The rooms were very clean, comfortable and quiet and had everything needed for our stay. Kids loved the free mini bar (soft drinks). The location was excellent. Ivan was an excellent host - he and other staff showed us such welcoming hospitality. He checked in with us before arrival and departure, and staff were helpful if we need anything. Breakfast was located a few winding minutes walk in the main hotel. It was very generous and included in the accommodation price. Would definitely recommend.

United KingdomInternet speed not enough for conference call and rooms a little small, but pretty amazing to have a hotel of this quality inside a roman palace!.... and who needs internet when there is so much to explore in Split. It is pricey.... but it's the heart of a city!
Heart of the palace... you can't get any more central.....literally sharing the wall of the Vestibul. Staff very helpful with luggage. Breakfast was excellent.

CanadaBreakfast was amazing, as well as lunch and the welcome cocktail. There were tenors singing in the vestibule which was incredible to listen to while sipping on a much needed glass of preseco. What really made the trip was the staff, so friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. They even carried our suitcases to the port for us to ensure we knew the way and to help with the long haul. The hotel arranged transfer from Brela for us which was much appreciated. Great driver, nice van. Hotel being in two very separate and distant location seemed odd at first, but we embraced the adventure of winding our way through the long cobbled corridors. Rooms were fine, clean and quiet. Will definitely return and highly recommend.

United StatesThe attention to detail and hospitality were unmatched. Ivan was the warmest welcome to this beautiful boutique hotel, a true guide to the city with wonderful recommendations and vast knowledge of the property. He also made sure to coordinate our arrival so we did not have to lug our heavy luggage from the street. In the evening Steven was at the front desk and was also such a pleasure with recommendations and accommodations. All the staff were so lovely and happy to assist us. The ambience and decor was sophisticated and went perfectly with the style of the beautiful stone from the 1300’s. It was such a treat to stay somewhere styled so beautifully. It was me and my one friend’s first time in split and I’m so glad this is where we chose to stay. As two solo female travelers we felt very safe. Make sure you uber places instead of using a taxi or it is 3x the price.
