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.).

AustraliaThe fridge was loud!
Lovely big, bright, spacious room. We didn’t pay for a room with views but the views were still really nice! It was very clean and tidy and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We really liked the location as it was quiet and out of the way but still not too far to walk over the bridge to the corniche and souq etc Breakfast was pretty good and on the weekend you get it cooked fresh to order.

United KingdomThe staff were not particularly friendly
The location was great for us, away from the centre of Sur but close enough to the things we wanted to see and do. We only stayed one night, we had a nice room with a view of the lagoon,parking was plentiful and there was a restaurant in the hotel and another one next door. The watchtower with its great sunset views is very close by and the Dhow boatyard and Maritime Museum are both only a 15 minute walk away via the bridge between Sur and Al Ayjah

MaltaUnfortunately, the wifi connection was very weak in our hotel room, but in the breakfast room and the hotel lobby it got a lot better.
The service was excellent and everyone was very helpful. We chose a sew view and it did not disappoint. The room was spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was nothing fancy, but there was enough variety to satisfy me and my friends.

AustraliaIt is on a main road and we found a little noisy in the front rooms. I used ear plugs and slept fine though.
Nice room, had all basic amenities you need. An easy walk into the main part of town and Al Ayjah. We didn’t try the hotel restaurant but the one next door makes for a convenient and tasty meal.

SerbiaGreat location if you want to see towers and scenic part of Sur (across the bridge). Sea view room was worth it, considering hotel is not very cheap. Breakfast was really excellent. Staff was great and very kind, had a feeling that they really care (cleaning and kitchen staff, Acquelle). Saying all that, hotel has much more possibiities and owners should invest more (lightning, balcony doors..) to male this hotel exceptional.

IndiaRoom was quite expensive than what it should be particularly when there's no additional facility in the hotel ( like a swimming pool/spa). Staff a little inattentive. It was our anniversary and we were expecting a cake/flowers/decorations. None of it was provided
Great location - 5 mins walk from the harbour/bridge/lighthouse. Wonderful view from the room. The dining area was amazing. Food was decent too
