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 KingdomWe upgraded last minute to their new suites - while the suite was lovely - you got a bath in the bathroom, a living room and bedroom - it lacked privacy on the balcony. The partition wall wasn't high enough, so your neighbour could see right in. We ended up angling our umbrella to block this. Lucky we were on the end and only had one person to the side. Also they are tiered , so above looked down on you . On our last day all our towels were covered in cigarette ash from the couple above smoking over their balcony. They also liked doing loud video calls showing the view , so always seemed to be hanging over the balcony looking right down on us .I would have rather stayed in one of the ordinary rooms with a balcony and not upgraded.
Great location,, right near the port. Lovely breakfast, overlooking the boats and you can sit on the outside terrace afterwards. Comfortable room . Easy walk to either the Marina area or Ghajnsielem ( the nearest village) . We ate at the latter most evenings , or the lovely floating restaurant in the Marina .

United KingdomA shame the indoor pool wasn’t open but not the end of the world as the outdoor one was. Everything was lovely.
First time to Malta & Gozo. Location excellent. Everything close to hand. Ferry to Malta, ferry to Comino, Avis car hire, a few restaurants. The view was beautiful, of the busy harbour. The new infinity pool allows you to watch the world go by whilst taking a refreshing dip. Breakfast was generous and more than enough options to suit most people. The staff friendly and helpful.

RomaniaThe reception staff should be more smiling and kind to those who stay! The lady at the reception who was there on the day of check-out should be ashamed of what she did! She asked me to take a picture of me at the pin I received on booking because their app doesn't work so she can then self-evaluate with a 10 review! the shower head was very worn and had mold. it should be replaced!
The view of the ferry, the church, the infinity pool the location of the hotel; close to the ferry (about 7 min walk to the hotel) the food of the restaurant and the kindness of the staff the indoor pool very comfortable bed PS: thanks to the cleaning man for his kindness!

United StatesThe staff are lovely and the infinity pool is a dream. I stayed with my girls and a fantastic time. A very short walk to Gozo Ferry. The location was perfect! I hope to make it back next year. I do suggest staying on the 5th floor:)

AustraliaIt’s a very large hotel and hallways have a damp smell and threadbare carpet and curtains. While the rooms are large they are dated and many aspects need fixing, such as curtains, showers(ours had a glued on knob that dropped off during the first shower and the spray arm dropped to the bath. Lots of chipped tiles, and could go either way a fresh coat of paint. That said, I happened to be in a lift with the manager who faked about my stay. After I told him both the positive and negatives, hd mentioned there would be refurbishment in winter, so it will hopefully be fabulous.
The location is great. The pool is a good size and has a lovely view. The staff are very helpful and professional. The food is good and the rooms are a generous size.
