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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do 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 or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

For a five star hotel I would say The Alfonso needs more staff to be able to deliver a better level of service.

Our room did get some noise because there was a service area underneath and it did look out over the car park. Wasn’t the cheapest room, so lost a mark on that. Also some damage to the bath and done bathroom fittings meant could not give a 10
Location and facilities, a grand and well renowned hotel in Seville. Wonderful building with a central courtyard, terrace, and gardens. Room was spacious.

Hotel was very good and you pay a high price for it. Would always be better if you can access a deal.
Excellent location for the wonderful City of Seville. The breakfast buffet was sumptuous and the room was very comfortable. We hired a car and had to pay 30 Euros per day for parking in the hotel, which was a waste as we did not use it for 5 days!!! Maybe a taxi to the hotel would have been more sensible.

The servicing of the room (on the Sunday we stayed) didn´t take place until nearly 5pm (just when we returned to the room). We had been out since 9am but there was no sign to hang on the door to show that housekeeping could take place.
The hotel offered a complimentary tour of the hotel with focus on the history and art. Very interesting.

Requested early entry to room as we arrived via plane at 10am. This did not happen and the phonecall we were promised didn't materialise. The swimming pool was freezing. Accept it is February but it really is cold. However great for dealing with knee swelling after a lot of walking. Requested balcony which we were given but doors were locked with no key available. Not sure very safe if there had been a fire Bar closed at 8pm and staff very quick to remove you. Seemed a bit early. On the expensive side as a hotel
Beautiful hotel in a prime location. Beautiful rooms and great staff. Good size pool Lady in American bar lovely and very helpful Door staff excellent and very helpful
