Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

South AfricaI had a waterfront view - the next morning the eye of the Aida Cruise vessel was literally looking into my window and the experience of water and sunrise.
Beautiful, stylish room with epic views. Exceptional breakfast and wonderful lounge area and spaces. This hotel makes me feel at rest and at peace with its beautiful atmosphere. The hotel is very welcoming - also if you have meetings and guests.

PhilippinesI booked 2 family rooms and both type of rooms were given to us - standard (twin + bunk bed) and upgraded (double + sofa bed). Although I'm sure it's more comfortable to sleeping on a real bed such as the bunk bed, but since we have big luggage, it's spacious to stay in the upgraded family room and just stay at a sofa bed. This should have been communicated to us earlier so there will be no comparison within the group.
This is walking distance from the bus station. However, if you have luggage, you'll be dragging it to 6-10 mins to the hotel. It might be hard if you come during winter. It is near the old town and a supermarket. The buffet breakfast with all those cheese are the best.

NorwayWe payed extra for sea view, but huge cruise-ferries blocked the view completely, achoring 15 Meyers in front of our Windows, where the passengers looked straight into our room if we did not pull the curtains! Very anoying! Ålesund is not a Town for disabled persons, steps everywhere and tall pavements.
The breakfast was very good.

United KingdomAccess to reception from the road, with luggage, could have been easier. Only a minor issue. There were 4 or 5 steps which looked smart, and a narrow ramp on which to drag suitcases. But it wasn’t easy. The entrance could have easily been altered into a gradual slope. Having travelled on trains, boats, and busses to get there, I could do without extra hassle!

NetherlandsWe found that some of the pillows in our room are bit smelly. I assume they were not properly cleaned or the cover were not replaced before we use them. The room facility is not as great as we expected for a 4-star rated hotel.
The staffs, especially the receptions, are very nice and friendly. The breakfast is delicious, and the service is great. The location is great.
