How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewVery charming place with a nice garden and a very welcoming host Antionio. We had pleasure to stay in our terrac, near the swimming pool (little but very useful with heatwave). We try the breakfast which was great. The restaurant « A Galia » just near the Villa Libania is to do !
A little bit far away from the center : you need to take a train for a total time of 30 minutes or a taxi (Uber is very cheap in Lisbon).

Verified reviewThe house is nicely decorated, modern and comfortable and the garden is beautiful and very enjoyable. We especially appreciated the spacious bedroom, the quality of the amenities, the garden table, and more. Antonio was a welcoming host and very helpful. As a family with a young kid it was nice to have such nice indoor and outdoor space very close to the city.
Area does not have that same cute vibe as some of Lisbon hoods. Still, there was a beautiful palace (worth a visit), a very nice park to jog, a supermarket and some nice restaurants nearby.

Verified reviewGreat accommodation, highly recommend. Antonia is an exceptional host, very professional, engaged, helpful and friendly! The accommodation is beautiful, very clean, tasteful; had everything we needed. The bedding was very comfortable and the shower facilities great. It's very tranquil and peaceful, great to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. We loved the garden. The pool works perfectly, it's a bit shallow but great to cool down. Our teenage kids had lots of fun playing in it for ages. Location is easiest to get to by Uber (if you don't have a rental car). Rides are so reasonable in price, and wait time no longer than 5 mins. Perfect! Supermarket and places to eat are close by; we had dinner at Retiro da Mina, which was very good. Place feels local and friendly. The café Folha de Cha was totally fine, we had some snacks during the day.
The place is front of the Palácio is mostly car park, which takes a bit away from the ambiente. The Cafés are more practical in its decor, rather than pretty.

Verified reviewWe absolutely loved our stay at Antonio’s home in Queluz, Portugal! Antinio went above and beyond as a host and greeted us when we arrived to give us a full tour of the home and surrounding area/garden/amenities, and gave us wonderful local recommendations for lunches, dinners and more. We highly recommend dinner at Retiro da Mina and the sandwiches from Folha de Chá for lunch. We very much enjoyed walking in the nearby park and reading our books in the private garden behind our apartment. Thank you for the cozy and memorable stay - highly recommend this place to all!

Verified reviewLocation is good, next to good restaurants and close to the city
Although all pictures show a nice garden, there are 2 completely separate houses with direct street access. Unfortunately we booked one of these. Thus, instead of garden view we had no privacy, being forced to keep the shades down so that the passers by won’t look directly at us. In addition, there was no air conditioning and the “balcony” was actually a small portion of a roof.
Dear Cristina, Thank you for your review. As discussed during your accommodation period, regretfully you chose the wrong apartment. Had you read the description and seen the photos of the Cottage and the other apartments you would have known that the Cottage is 50 meters outside the Vila. You would also have seen that the Cottage is one the access road to the Vila, that it has fans just like all the other apartments and no air conditioner as we do not advertise having aircons. Whilst the Cottage is outside the Vila, you still had access to all the amenities, which unfortunately you did not use or visit by your own choice. As per my suggestion then and now, it is important in future for you to see which accommodations you want, read and understand the difference between each apartment or house so that you will not be disappointed. I hope you have the opportunity in future to book one of the other apartments in the Vila and take advantage of the amenities like all our other guests. Kind regards, Antonio Capucho Paulo
