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...).

PortugalNothing. Everything was wonderful.
Everything about Quinta das Susandas was excellent. The space is quaint, peaceful, clean, comfortable, and lovely. We received a warm welcome by Nadia, and she was attentive and accommodating throughout our stay. It was our first time travelling as a family of three (with our seven month old baby), and Nadia went above and beyond to ensure that all our needs were met. Our little one was doted on and spoiled, it was wonderful. The onsite restaurant was impeccable, both for breakfast and dinner. We received great recommendations for off-site restaurants, as well as things to do and sites to see (but we chose to spend our time on the property). I highly recommend Quinta das Susandas, and only regret not having booked a longer stay. Our family will definitely return to this gorgeous place.

The breakfast was fresh organic and a plus to our stay. Two outside pools are well maintained and have amazing views. This is the best place to stay to explore Duoro River.

ItalyQuinta das Susandas is an amazing and recently renovated property in a beautiful and peaceful land, ideal for taking some break and rest from the city life. The rooms are spacious and have all the comforts you need. The staff is polite and gentle, always available and willing to make your stay enjoyable. We were welcomed by Marcelo - who is managing the family-owned property - in a very pleasant tour of the property, which included a taste of their own produced Porto wine (also available in the bedroom) and some tips on what to visit/do around. The property is located in a strategic position to explore the Douro region. The only regret is we stayed only one night.

CanadaThe roads in the Duoro valley are not for the faint of heart! But that's a nervous driver talking.
A beautiful quiet quinta with a few rooms in a gorgeous setting. Breakfast is exceptional. Room was very nice and we enjoyed the balcony everyday. The view from the room was spectacular. Also enjoyed both pools - one was an infinity pool overlooking the valley.

CanadaNothing significant but open shower lovely but floor get wet so add an extra towel
Beautiful authentic Quinta in Douro Valley. Charming historical touches from mix of antiques and woods in common area, with modern rooms! Touched by warm hearts of our hosts with food and wines (their home made porto wine is the best we’ve have ever tasted). Loved the welcome package of homemade cake and Porto in the room. Carla , Marcelo and their team (including their roosters, birds, dog and vineyards made it extra special). Ps panoramic views from pool or room and much more made it perfect! We will definitely visit again and recommend to others.

United States of AmericaThere is a very large electrical tower on the property, near the main pool. This should not deter your stay but it is a little bit of an eye sore.

United KingdomThe host clearly warns about this (so no issue with them) but avoid the small road from the village when arriving and leaving - stick to the bigger road. The small road is very tricky ;-) There is a good road to get here, you don't have to use the village roads.
What an amazing place. Stunning views and setting, very helpful and friendly hosts, delicious dinner (have to book) and breakfast. Would love to come back and stay a bit longer. Stay here if you want some peace and experience a stay at a Douro Quinta.
