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.).

LithuaniaWiFi was painfully slow (but stable). We booked a table for dinner for the first night but decided to go by ear for the next time, but when we decided to go again there was no table available for like a week. Maybe a system with "first dibs" for hotel guests should be devised. Continental breakfast could use some variation day-to-day.
Very nice small family-run hotel. Andrea was very helpful and nice. Our split-floor room was spacious, and the view was amazing. The pool area was either empty or almost empty most of the time, so it felt like we had a private pool. The restaurant was great, but you need to book a table way in advance. An amazing place for a quiet and relaxed stay for a few days.

United KingdomThis is not the hotels fault but on the Friday night we stayed the local bar on the lake had a very loud DJ set going - not great ambience for such an elegant restaurant and hotel.
Lovely old property with traditional style, charming staff and wonderful views over the lake. Excellent breakfast.

United StatesTwo minor suggestions: 1. WiFi coverage throughout the resort using one WiFi name instead of multiple logins when moving between locations. 2. Small glass enclosure to the showers so water does not go all over the floor.
A beautiful setting in a quaint town, yet close to all the major attractions via an easy ferry ride. The pool is great and the chef has some unique take on Italian local dishes.

Such a perfect hotel. Location, pool, room, staff, restaurant all made for a lovely few days. Very large rooms with great views. The restaurant was a draw for people from all around it seems and rightly so. Great to sit out on the veranda and enjoy great service food and views. Felt very special.

NetherlandsNothing really. One thing to recommend (nothing to do with the hotel): book a car to drive around the lake and towns, as there are not many taxi's and they are relatively pricy.
The greatest thing about this stay was the super friendly and helpful staff! They helped us arrange a tour on the lake, find nice restaurants and arranged transport to and from the hotel. Breakfast was really good as well: you can order any kind of eggs at your table, which is beautifully set and has a great view over the lake. The pool was nice and private and the rooms were decorated beautifully and had a really authentic / old school vibe with different colors for each rooms. All in all a great stay!

United StatesThe room had a stunning view of the lake and was spacious and well-furnished. It also had a balcony overlooking the lake and beautiful manicured grounds. The bathroom was luxurious, with fluffy towels, a Frette robe, and lovely soap and lotion. The balcony had a small table and chairs for guests to enjoy the view. The breakfast was a traditional Italian meal, served formally, and any special requests were accommodated. The restaurant for dinner was exceptional and intimate, with a gourmet dining experience, a lovely wine list a knowledgeable Sommelier, and expertly served. This family-run hotel is well-managed, with friendly and accommodating staff, and the Family is charming. The location is outstanding. It was the perfect way to end our vacation.
