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 StatesThe only issue I had was that the hotel was not that easy to find at first.
This is an excellent and intimate hotel located a few steps literally from the historic center with a variety of cafés/restaurants. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful--for example, when I checked in, the front desk person went outside and found a parking space for me! Wow! Very nice breakfast with personal service! While it has a limited bar, you can simply ask the front desk and they will even pour your drink for you! I'm definitely returning to this hotel!

Location in centre of town very convenient as the old town is just behind the hotel. Friendly welcome, helpful staff. Fabulous breakfast - too much! Entrance to hotel is round the back of the hotel, not on the square. Parking on the street.

IsraelThe cupboard was a bit weird, only hanging space and one shelf at the top but not a big deal.
When I got there I was given a room with no view but was moved when I asked to a lovely room overlooking the square. It had big windows that I could open so I did not need to use the air conditioner. The staff were lovely, so accommodating and friendly! A special mention to Beatrice and Gabriel who served me breakfast. Wonderful service and really friendly. The breakfast was excellent! Really set me up for the day. The bed was wonderfully comfortable so I slept well and I loved the fluffy robe that was provided. All in all, a great experience!!

CanadaThe room was dated, but large and everything worked.
While the room was quite dated, the staff at Hotel Toural more than made up for it, particularly Gabriel and the other gentleman who works at the bar and in the breakfast room. I'm sorry that I didn't catch his name. Speaking of the included a la carte breakfast, it was fabulous. When I mentioned I'm vegan they shocked me by bringing out vegan yogurt and cheese. The next morning they remembered I was vegan and brought out the vegan products before even being asked. While usually made to feel like an imposition for asking about vegan options and workarounds, here the staff went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and happy. Thanks guys. The staff at the front desk was always warm and welcoming too.

United StatesHard place to find as the entry is not on Toural Square, but behind. The streets are very narrow with curbs that we had to "hop" to make a turn onto the next street. Guest parking on the street is limited. Bed was a little soft, but O.K.
Outstanding Breakfast! Incredible and personable waiter/bartender. Our room looked onto Toural Square from which we saw a midnight parade and speech celebrating Portuguese Independence. Central location to the main attractions, we didn't have to walk far.

AustraliaUnfortunately, one of the advantages (being in the old town) is a disadvantage when parking. However, the staff looked after parking for us which was great.
The hotel is located right in the old town area. It was clean and comfortable and the staff were terrific. The room was spacious and had a large bathroom. The breakfast was terrific and really set us up for the day.

The location was great. but I had trouble locating the hotel entrance so was another hotel gust. I liked the breakfast with freshly cooked eggs and bakery. Unlike most other places, it was a served breakfast. The only down side is the window is blocked by another building next to it. Besides that, I would like to stay again next time.
