Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

CanadaBreakfast was great. More than you could eat. The location was up on a hilltop overlooking the Mediterranean. The rooms were ultra modern including the bathroom and we had a huge balcony. There was a shuttle that ran often to take you down into town and back to the hotel.

SwitzerlandThe orange juice on the breakfast buffet was not up to standards: way too diluted according to my taste. Otherwise the breakfast buffet was rich and well organised. On windy days the lack of airtight doors leads to a whistling sound which can be disturbing during nights. In general, the sound isolation could be better but is probably due to the time of construction of the hotel. These are however minor points in an overall very positive appreciation.
The hotel is located somewhat outside of the busy village at about 120 m above sea level. Needless to say that going down to and particularly getting up to the hotel from Monterosso was some good sport. Luckily enough they have a very efficient shuttle service that runs up and down at least once every hour. The view from the balcony is breath-taking: you oversee the 5 villages of the cinque terre. The people at the reception couldn't have been more helpful

United States of AmericaA first-rate place. I will definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Cinque Terre. I would especially like to note how professional, friendly, and accommodating the women who staff the front desk are. I hope their bosses know what a good job they do. Excellent supper options for those looking for a bite after exploring the villages. Great view from the terraces--a nice place to relax.

United KingdomWe would have liked to be on the top floor but our floor the first still gave us views to die for but you could hear people above walking around as there are no carpets in the floor.
Location stunning up a mountain with views over the whole of the cinque terre- we like walking it if you don’t - do not choose this hotel- the town is a very steep walk up and down but there is a free shuttle every hour but if you don’t want to walk you have to wait for the shuttle but that’s no harsh up when you’re in holiday. The breakfast was varied and filling and sorted us for the days walking and exploring. The place was sooo clean !

GermanyGenerally everything was very good. We are so appreciated about our stay. If I have to say something which we did not like so much is the comfort of the bed. It might be improved (or maybe this is not valid for all the rooms. Maybe we were unlucky and there was something wrong with our bed)
The staff, breakfast, cleanliness, and view of the hotel are amazing. Before the visit, I was little worried about the shuttle, but it never became a problem. You can easily adjust yourself according to the time of the shuttle and even you miss it, you can still walk. Every one hour it goes from the hotel to the town and from town to the hotel. And even it is crowded, it makes couple of more rounds.

AustraliaOur 2nd room was located above the kitchen and next to the elevator, so it was noisy at times. We had a sea view room on our 1st night. Extra spacious with a balcony and view of the sea. Pay the extra for a sea view or balcony if you can, it's definitely worth it. The decor was a bit outdated, but that's my personal opinion.
Amazing location overlooking the sea with plenty of sunbeds or seating to enjoy the view. A little bar was available and the ladies at the front desk were very obliging in attending to your needs. Plenty of areas to relax, both inside and outside. Shuttle bus was a handy option to get down to the village. Everything was immaculately clean. Enjoyed the fact it was located on the edge of a national park so I could take little walks and explore the natural environment. Quiet location away from the noise of the village. Generous offerings for breakfast. Management and staff were exceptional.

United States of AmericaThere is a free shuttle bus that takes you back & forth to town. Unfortunately it runs every hour. It would be much nicer if it ran every 30 minutes. One evening there were many people waiting for the shuttle. The van was there but the driver was not very friendly & he was enjoying the music that was playing from the free concert. During the time that we waited he could have made 3 trips back & forth instead of making everyone wait until it was time. There was a couple that did not make it on the van because they were full. They had waited quite a while as well & were not very happy.
The view was exceptional. It was beautiful at sunrise & in the evening when the sun went down, you could see the lights of all the towns along the coast.
