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 reviewThe staff were all very pleasant, the evening meal was excellent.
At breakfast, the restaurant had run out of butter, so dry toast with jam or a dry muffin with jam, eventually I saw a plate of margarine being put out however margarine is not something which is on my list of foods. The coffee station was outside the breakfast room, inconvenient to have to order and wait for the coffee to be brought to the table.

Verified reviewLocation and the pool were lovely 😍 The breakfast was also amazing. The Zepi night time food was exceptional especially and the mussels. The reception and staff in general were lovely.
The service was extremely slow. 20 mins for a coffee, more for a cocktail. Which were overpriced! The afternoon service at the pool was also bad. The restaurant had run out of almost all the menu items and this was a Saturday. I ended up eating a very sad club sandwich instead of the Philly cheese steak I wanted. Waffles were out of stock and most of the milkshake flavors out of stock. We were also told to vacate the pool for a private function. It was a bit unprofessional but luckily it was not for too long. Aircon in the room was very noisy sounded like a tractor.
Dear Leslene, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback with us. We're truly pleased to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful location, our pool area, and that breakfast and your experience at Zepi, We're glad the mussels left a positive impression. It's also wonderful to know our reception and team made you feel welcome throughout your stay. That said, we're genuinely sorry to hear about the shortcomings you experienced. We sincerely apologize for the delays in service, particularly at the pool and with drinks, this is certainly not the standard we aim to deliver. Your feedback regarding the limited menu availability and stock issues is concerning, especially on a busy weekend, and has been shared with our restaurant management team for immediate review and improvement. We also regret the inconvenience caused by the temporary pool closure and the noise from the air conditioning in your room. These disruptions should have been better managed and communicated, and we appreciate you bringing them to our attention. Your comments are incredibly valuable as they help us identify where we need to do better. We hope you’ll consider staying with us again, allowing us to provide you with the seamless and relaxing experience you deserve.
