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.).

The staff is absolutely amazing! Everyone is extremely friendly and welcoming, be it the manager or the waiter/waitress. The gym is probably the best hotel gym I’ve ever experienced!

United KingdomI arrived at the hotel on one of the days during heavy rainfall; one of the staff was standing inside, but he was not initiative enough to bring an umbrella outside to help me work out of my car. I was held up in the car for a while. I wasn't happy with this.

United KingdomNo iron available only an ironing service which had to be paid for. Laundry service was quite pricey if doing a full wash of clothes. No baby cradle or baby bed available so our 1 year old had to sleep between us.
Breakfast buffet was a pleasant experience. Staff were really helpful and went all out to fulfil our requests. Gym, swimming pool and tennis court were in good condition. During our stay not many guests were present so we were able to utilise the facilities when we wanted.

United KingdomThe hotel is undergoing renovations which meant that one of the restaurants was closed the room I booked not available. It should have been clear when booking that renovations are in progress so guests can make informed decisions about if they want to book.
The location is great with nice views from the hilltop out to sea. It was also nice that some of the staff remembered us from our previous stay over a year ago. The room was spacious and comfortable.

RomaniaWe had to wait for almost 4 hours to get our room even though we booked it almost 2 weeks in advance. They kept saying that the room is being cleand. The exterior aspect of the hotel. It looked like an abandoned building. At some point they started extending the buildings but stopped for some reason. Very noisy area at night. Our friends booked a room in advance but when they arrived there, for no reason, they have been told that there are no rooms available. They had to spend the night at a very sketchy hotel. Very expensive given the above and the overall location.
The view from the restaurant and the pool. The rooms are equipped with air conditioning. The food was more than decent and the staff quite nice.
