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...).

United KingdomAs it was early April we used the indoor pool which looked a bit run down, dirty and was also quite badly signposted. The hotel was a bit of a rabbit warren. As with all hotels, the walls were paper thin and it was noisy in the morning and late evening. The room was expensive and there were minor things that I felt were lacking. There were only 2 pillows on the bed, I could have asked for another one I guess but for 2 nights it wasn't worth it. There were no robes, we did ask for those and they took over half an hour and a second call to reception to arrive. The complementary bottles of water were not replenished after the first day. I was surprised there was no tea or coffee facility. I don't necessarily want to wait for room service for if I fancy a cup of tea - I am English after all 😂 As I said all minor issues but they sometimes make a big difference to the overall quality of the stay.
The architecture of the building is wonderful, late 19th century. The staff were lovely, very friendly and helpful. We had a side room with a balcony overlooking the the outdoor swimming pool and the lake to the right. The room was great, clean and spacious, with a sofa and 2 comfortable chairs. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was a descent size There was plenty of hanging space and coat hangers. I enjoyed the curtain options we could have light ones for privacy during the day, heavier ones at night or a black out blind if we needed.

ItalyI personally didn't like breakfast too much. There was a huge variety of food but the quality was just ok. I would have preferred a cappuccino a croissant and fresh orange juice in a higher quality. In fairness, they have fresh orange juice. I believe they just adapted the buffet to the type of clientele who is used to filling their plates with mountains of food no matter what. I think breakfast was around 29 euros per person. I also found it strange that in the pool changing room there was no shower. Plus, access to the tiny tiny sauna had an extra charge. We were too early into the season to enjoy the outdoor spaces.
Great location 15 Min walking from restaurants and main attractions. On a good day of sun you can see isola bella from the windows. They have a pool and sauna. Good value for money

United States of AmericaThe hotel was old and needs a freshner- it had a stale smell.
The breakfast buffet was amazing. Make sure you get there at least 30 minutes before 10am because they shut down immediately at 10am.

United KingdomDuring our stay, the hotel had 2 different tours staying and the dining room was partioned in to 3, one for each group and 1 for individual travellers. This meant that there was zero atmosphere in the dining area with maybe 6 other guests in a large room. Breakfast was the same but the tour parties seem to get there first. The whole hotel seemed to revolve around tour parties and that spoilt the expperience for us.

New ZealandThere was just one thing missing: tea and coffee making facilities in the room. This is surprising as most other hotels have this.
It was a beautiful and well located hotel. I'd rate it as a 5 star. The decor and furniture were beautiful, and the staff were friendly and helpful.

United KingdomIt just lacked some basics. No tea or coffee facilities in the room. Paper cups to drink from in room. The gym had half a dozen pieces of equipment and three of them were broken. The inside pool was good but a little dirty . The cost of breakfast was £25 each so for a family of four not worth it . The food at restaurant was ok nothing special. We decided to eat out most nights.
The location was superb and the view of the lake and islands from our balcony was wonderful. All the staff were excellent and very keen to help in anyway.

Czech RepublicEverything was fine except that they took from me more money than I had on my booking reservation. First, I was about to come with my wife, but then our plans changed and I went alone, so I made a new reservation for a single room, which was much cheaper than a double. But somehow at the checkout I was still charged double, altough at the beginning of my stay the lady receptionist confirmed, that she will switch my tariff to single.
