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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

SpainYou get more than what you pay for at Pandora. The location is prime to access the best spots on the island, it’s a 10min walk from a beautiful waterfall that you can swim in and watch the sunset. Lou is one of the most genuine, funny and interesting people you’ll ever encounter. He goes above and beyond to welcome you and make you feel at home. He also gave us tips on where to go depending on the weather. Very cozy rooms and the facilities are always clean. The only downside is having to leave🥲 We will miss you Lou! Chris & Susana July 2023

United KingdomThe room was a bit small - this was ok for one night but not perhaps for more. The view from the window was very uninspiring - again, staying for only 1 night this did not really matter. That's about it!
There were no problems with checking in or out. The room was comfortable and the breakfast was very good and varied. The location was excellent for access to town and waterfront. They were very efficient in the arranging of a taxi for us - for both our arrival and departure. We were perfectly happy with the whole experience.

BelgiumIf you stay at the hotel, I recommend asking for and if necessary paying the extra price for a room facing the back. Inspite of the double glazed window, the bars in the street are still loud enough to hear at night. With earplugs and the windows closed it was ok for a night.
The staff is incredibly nice and the room was very clean. Large bathroom with excellent shower and good towels. Breakfast in buffet style with enough variety..

Canadanot much to say here - my issue in general is that Azores hotels don’t have conditioner provided (just shampoo). Pack your own conditioner!! Also the noise from the downstairs restaurant can be a bit loud, so bring ear plugs if you want to sleep early or sleep in.
Outside of being centrally located on a charming cobble stone street, the staff are very helpful. The hotel is historic and has lots of tastleful artwork inside, well designed. Breakfast is also very good. Rooms are partially renovated, lots of towels provided, beds are comfy. Overall solid stay.

United StatesMy initial impressions of the hotel. There was a fancier place across the street that probably was twice or more the cost of mine, but there is no way it could have been twice as nice. I realized this as my stay continued. Super happy with my hotel choice.

IsraelCan be noisy outside if your room is facing the street and you OPEN a window. If windows are close, then no noise is coming through. Not even the noise of the crowd coming from the near by pubs. There are also air conditioners engines that making noise so open window (we like open window to get fresh air) can be an issue in general. Depends on room location
The hotel is located in an excellent location. It is close to the bay but away from the main street, which is a huge plus! It is situated near multiple pubs where young people hang out, as well as bars and coffee shops. However, if you open the window at night until 2 am, it can be a bit noisy. The rooms are spacious with large windows that can be opened. The only issue is that if the window faces the street, there is constant noise coming from nearby air conditioner engines. If you are a light sleeper, this can be a problem. The bathroom is very spacious and has everything you need. The breakfast is good and sufficient. They also provide towels for the hot springs (red towels). The checkout time (at least when we stayed) is at 12 pm, so there is enough time to visit Caldeira Velha hot springs in the morning, come back, and have a shower before leaving. There is a parking problem around the area, but there is an underground parking lot very close by with unlimited parking at a very attractive price. Overall, it is an excellent choice for young travelers or couples who enjoy hanging out in local pubs until late.
