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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

Good breakfast with a lot of egg-possibilities. They washed our laundry for a small fee. One of the servants arranged a scooter for us. The location is perfect, snorkelspot directly on the other site of the (quiet road).

United KingdomIt felt like the hotel is overpriced given the lack of alternatives. The pool was not cleaned at all and essentially unusable. There was a general sense of poor maintenance with peeling floor paint, mould on the ceiling in the room, a missing shower shelf and a bathroom window that looked as though it hadn’t been maintained in years. There was also a lot of exposed pipe work and wires that you wouldn’t expect to see in a more expensive property. The tv was also very basic with only regular tv channels - again for the price of the room access to streaming services is expected
Location is good beside the sea and not too far from the ferry terminal, while still being far enough away not to see it. The cats that hang around are cute, particularly one which had a tail like a squirrel and which we called Ginger. The room was clean and the staff generally were great. The nearby associated restaurant was great both for breakfast and dinner (note the rating score is for the accommodation and not the restaurant)

United StatesVast room was dark w/one tiny window and gray with little decor Pool area under construction No 24/7 reception staff Food is quite expensive ANYWHERE on Statia as it all has to be brought in.
Clean quiet spacious room. Great huge bathroom - lots of hot water in large shower. Big comfy bed Lovely bar/terrace area on the water with dining area for sunset dinners, with good service and good food. Other Dinner options nearby. Short steep hike up to the fort and town for siteseeing and lunch. Helpful staff Variety of room options so study them carefully and ask questions. Quick taxi connections to ferry and airport. I can't imagine staying anywhere else on Statia.

Sint MaartenSome of the bathroom fixtures need to be replaced. The toilet bowl and the faucet of the face basin were visibly old. For modern users I would recommend that the hotel adds more outlets. Light fixtures with built in outlets or USB charging ports on the nightstands would help.
Friendly staff, check in was a breeze. The shower was nice. Good water pressure! The bed was good and the room is spacious. Wifi signal and speed were good enough to do work on your laptop or phone. Didn't use the coffee machine, but was nice to have the option available. Complimentary bottled water in the room was also appreciated. Didn't use the mini fridge, but it was working just fine. TV is a good size. I didn't eat at the restaurant, but I have eaten there during previous trips to Statia and their food is good. Pricing was not bad for an ocean view boutique hotel room with breakfast included ($195 a night).

NetherlandsWould have preferred healthier choices in food also. Room (apartment) was good, but no shelves in closets to put your things on. Shower not draining well. Look of the apartment could have been more attractive, was somewhat Spartan.
Good food. Rich and lots of it. Setting is beautiful and historic. We stayed in quarantine and given the limitations that entails, we were taken good care of.

NetherlandsThe property is under new ownership and they seem to working hard to improve the condition of the hotel which is in desperate need of renovations: For example, the pool was dirty - and when there aren't any beaches, you do want a pool - and the ceiling of the bedroom was moldy. I'd give it some time and
The location was perfect as we could walk from the port having arrived on the 20:15 ferry and didn't have a car. The hotel occupies a stunning spot overlooking the sea with sun loungers on a sandy area, comfortable couches to enjoy sundown and a good restaurant. The staff were very pleasant and helpful.
