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 KingdomA lot of taxi drivers won’t enter ‘the park’ as you need to pay a fee at the gate (this is refunded by the hotel) not a fault with the hotel. But but something to be aware of

United StatesIt’s an older property- and my dislikes relate to the age- nothing really they can do to fix it- it’s really about the location!
The views- simply the best! On the night we stayed- 2 large tour groups were also there- it made the breakfast area a little over taxed. However- the staff warned us with notifications posted in the elevator.

United StatesWe liked all
The location of this hotel and surroundings are exceptional. It stands next to the amazing Bom Jesus Basilica. The stairs leading to this Basilica are a great example of the Portugal art and architecture. Climbing these stairs from the bottom to the Cathedral could be challenging, but it worth it. The whole complex of buildings and multiple chapels create an exceptionally spiritual environment. The large park on the mountain offers excellent opportunity for simply walking and for meditations The Hotel do Parque staff was exceptionally friendly. We had a gorgeous dinner in the restaurant with the amazing view of Braga and its shining lights. We also took a ride on the unique funicular driven by the force of water..Our room was small but quite sufficient for a short stay. The whole atmosphere of this hotel makes it home away from home. We had breakfast included in the price and it as very good in all aspects: the spacious room, good service, plenty of tasty food and beverages.

NetherlandsThe terrace outside was very public, not so private for such a hotel. The bar service limited in terms of small snacks or petiscos. They could make it more appealing and comfy at the bar/terrace. A pity because the rest was perfect

PortugalThe bathroom configuration is not very private. They could stand to update some of the decor (like lose the fake flowers!). Breakfast was adequate, but quite average. Eggs were cold and the mushrooms were not fresh but were from a jar. The breakfast room was creepily quiet. They should look into playing some background music for better ambience.
The location is excellent. Right by the church and great views of the park area. The staff, especially Carolina, were so friendly and helpful. She gave us recommendations for the area that were really appreciated. It was a convenient walk to the park areas. The bed was pretty comfortable, too. The bar was lovely and we played pool (badly!) in the game room. The art in the bar is so unique, too.

United KingdomWe loved everything !
The location is fabulous....at the top.of Bom Jesus stairway, and near to the funicular. There is a bus stop at the bottom of Bom Jesus, and from there you can either walk up the stairway, or take the funicular to the top (2eu one way per person). Alternatively take a Bolt ride from the city of Braga (cheap). We had a rental car, and there was free parking at the hotel. The room was big and clean. The bed and pillows were comfy, the breakfast was excellent, and the staff were all friendly and professional. The view from our room was brilliant, overlooking the courtyard at the top of Bom Jesus. I cannot fault the venue, and would definitely recommend it.

This is a picturesque one of a kind hotel. The view is incredible. The room is big. The park and surroundings are magnificent. Staying here is clearly much better than staying in the city center.
