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 StatesBreakfast was good, but could have been better. They need to improve their method of keeping their food warm. The current method using pots isn't working. They were out of smoked salmon one day. Also, green LED light at interior of room doorway was too bright, interferred with sleeping. The room could have used an extra floor lamp.
Beautiful room! Beautiful hotel! Terrific courteous service throughout. Location was ideal, short walk from Sao Bento train station. Interior woodwork and stained glass window does not disappoint!

United StatesGood size bathroom, but no hooks on which to hang a robe. Although a large room so adequate space, only one dining chair was provided. We had room service one evening so one of us had to sit on the sofa atop two cushions to reach the table. We did dine in Scarlett, the hotel restaurant, and although the service was excellent, the menu was not inspiring and did not seem to live up to the description on the website.
Enjoyed our short two night stay and had chosen the hotel for its location and uniqueness. Staff greeted us and helped us with our luggage on arrival. A relaxing check-in with a welcome drink. Marveled at the beauty of the hotel with its impressive staircase and stained glass window and other decorative features. Our room was large so easy to open and live out of our suitcases for two days. As a tea drinker a kettle in the room is always welcomed plus the custard tarts were delicious. Bottled water was provided, again always appreciated when traveling. Buffet breakfast was included in our reservation with its array of delicious options. The staff were friendly and very helpful with directions and luggage in particular. Would recommend to others when staying in Porto.

IrelandOur only complaint? That we couldn’t stay longer. We left already planning our return.
From the moment we arrived, this hotel was nothing short of magical. The interior is absolutely stunning, grand chandeliers, breathtaking stained-glass windows, and a refined charm that made us feel like we were stepping into a postcard. One of the highlights was the private sun deck complete with a dip pool perfect for unwinding with drinks and gourmet nibbles, available on demand. The staff went above and beyond, welcoming us with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. We were greeted with a glass of port on arrival, a deliciously thoughtful introduction to Porto that set the tone for our stay. The rooms were immaculate, with a nightly turndown service and chocolates placed on our pillows; small touches that made a big difference. A standout member of the team was Riu Pinto (concierge) whose warmth and professionalism elevated our entire experience. From the moment he greeted us, Riu made us feel truly seen and cared for. His attention to the smallest details from remembering our name, preferences to anticipating our needs, he was remarkable. He offered thoughtful recommendations that led us to some of the best hidden gems in the city, making our trip feel personalised and unique. His deep local knowledge and passion for Porto added a rich layer to our visit, and his friendly, approachable demeanor made every interaction a pleasure. Riu is a true asset to the hotel and a big reason why our stay was so memorable.
