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 KingdomNeed improvements urgently! Looks like abandoned at somehow, the air con didn’t work, the hair dry didn’t work, the tv didn’t work… the rooms are very old, which needs to redecorate for sure and get the things fixed, but for us, we just used to shower and sleep, so it’s was ok but not the best. The bay near by doesn’t have sand to stay and enjoy the day, you need to go to another places. I rented a car, the hotel doesn’t have parking and it was very hard to park around even in a low season.
Amazing staff, the only thing which worth it and have an Irish pub/ restaurant on the ground floor, very nice food, pool table and amazing staff. The location is ok, close to the bay (is not a beach though) have restaurants near by, convenience stores.

United KingdomThe cockroach in the bathroom! However cockroaches are a fact of life and myself and the night man dealt with it. It was funny rather than sending me screeching. I could have done with the bathroom door closing properly which it didn’t then I could have closed the door on the cockroach and dealt with it in the morning instead of at 3am.
It was laid back. If you are picky then it’s not for you, but despite it needing attention to detail I liked the casualness of the hotel. The pool and surroundings were very very good. I would stay there again even with its shortcomings.

AustraliaOld, noisy staff seem to stay in rooms they talked very loudly washing hanging on the balcony floor tiles uneven creaky. Bathrooms mouldy. No where to keep water cold.
Walking distance to bus serviced rooms everyday. Staff very helpful. Moved us to new room as first one had one curtain on window and only closed halfway and we were on the front side of hotel with street lights outside the room.

FranceIt was noisy: I heard all the noise from the corridor and room above. The hotel is in a neighborhood which is not particularly pleasant.
I enjoyed the pool, the outstanding staff who provided plenty of advice and the large bedroom. I’m glad the hotel was not crowded.

CyprusThe room didn't have a fridge which was an inconvenience (for cold drinks or left over food) and wasn't in the best condition (the ceiling fan was making too much noise, the curtains were missing hangers or they were hanged wrong and the air-condition was unplugged and I had to climb underneath the bed to grab the plug)
The air-conditioning was working fine, the view from the balcony was fine, the staff was wonderful and the room was clean.

ItalyWhen we entered there is 3 single beds instead of 1 big bed for me and my bf. No water to drink atleast water you have to welcome the guest. No shampoo but there is shower gel 😊. Thanks. The flash of the toilet we don't know how it works so we ask the receptionist likewise the shower we ask them to fix it 😔. The microwave it's not functioning or maybe we just don't know how it works. The terrace/ balcony i don't like it. But we still had a good sleep anyway. Thank you!
The location is fine. The room is spacious and clean. The receptionist is accomodating.

United KingdomThe food wasn't great an there aren't many restaurants around the hotel all the decent ones are about a 15 min walk (maybe 10 but I had a toddler with me 😂) Lots of ants an gnats but that's just Malta in general not really the hotels fault I did notice a lot of places had closed down from when I was last in Malta about 5 years ago so guessing that's due to covid. Was really sad to see but again not the hotels fault lol. The security wasn't so helpful but guess his not there to help people cheek out lol
We arrived later than planed got to the room an the aircon didn't work. Staff was so helpful he come to the room an tried to fix it. He was unable to so offered us another room for the night but as it was late we just stayed till the morning an upgrad the room. (for A small charge but that was my choice we could have just moved rooms but needed a fridge as had a toddler with me) All the staff was friendly and always helpful hotel was clean and the pool area was really nice and child my daughter had the kids pool to her self most of the days she loved it.

ItalyThe structure is in need for a renovation: everything apart from the reception is probably from the 80s. Especially the walls and furnitures: both show the signs of theirs age, which prevents housekeeping to keep the facility as clean as it should be. However, the base the structure is really strong so the starting point for a renovation project has a very good start.
The staff was amazing, from the receptionists to the housekeepers; all of them made us feel very welcome and they promptly managed our requests every single time. They also we're genuinely nice, which is great. The position of the hotel is aso great: while it might not be on seaview, being in the inner part of Bugibba allowed for quiet time during the night, especially those two days where the local festival was taking place.

ItalyThe hotel is quite old, a lot of things were not working like sockets, hairdryer, the fan on the ceiling was really really noisy and the air conditioning was not so powerful so it took a while to cool down the temperature in the room. The shower is old and lacks of maintenance. We also found one host not really appreciated in our room, if you know what I mean..
The staff is amazing, they were all super nice, kind, welcoming and available for all requests. Also the area of the swimming pool is nice.
