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.).

United KingdomThe food was not up to the standard I'd expect for the stars and quality of the hotel. Lacked much in the way of health options and lack of fruit for breakfast. Dinner in the restaurant was expensive and over priced for the quality of the cuisine.

Comfortable rooms with lovely view, very clean and spacious. Great breakfast and pools! The view from the roof bar is great! The staff were incredible! So nice, kind and helpful. We booked a taxi (not from the hotel) that arrived without a baby car seat although we ordered it.. and the hotel loaned us theirs for free, asking the driver to just bring it back afterwards. We were shocked and so grateful for this.

HungarySome of the furniture in the room was worn, which did not fit into a 5-star hotel quality, but there was more that bothered me. I think it has a negative message: when you, as a guest, feel at every step in the hotel, if you do not pay extra besides the 5-star price, you can not 'have the premium experience'. It was impossible to lay beside the pool on sunbeds, only if you paid an extra fee, the "premium experience." And they faced this strange opportunity everywhere, from the check-in desk to the elevators. I felt like a second-grade guest because I was not paying the extra/premium, which is a bit weird when you go to rest and think previously that you found the best opportunity to enjoy luxury in a 5-star hotel. It's at least not polite.
The location of the hotel and the view from the pool is stunning. I also enjoyed the design efforts in the lobby and common space areas. There are enough opportunities to enjoy food and drink in the hotel. The best experience was the Bar on the roof, which is especially recommended if you want to enjoy the sunset with a nice cocktail. The hotel has a beach and a few outdoor pools where you can swim and relax.

The view from the window on the ocean is beautiful. The balcony has comfortable chairs and a table, a good place for evening gatherings.

SwitzerlandThe Saccharum is a big hotel, with many rooms, yet you'll feel extremely well taken care of. The rooms are beautiful and large, you'll find many pools, including a wonderful rooftop one with many places to sit, read, and relax. There are many bars and restaurants. We were warmly welcomed by the staff, that went the extra mile because it was my wife's birthday. We were offered a bottle of champagne in the room, there were rose petals on the bed, and we had a nice surprise dessert at the end of our meal in the Alambique restaurant. We were given the opportunity to enjoy the hotel amenities after we had checked out for our last day, which was really enjoyable. Everything was perfect from the breakfast to the cocktails in the rooftop bar. Many thanks to all the staff that we had the opportunity to be in contact with. I can only recommend for you to stay at least a few days here. Oh there's an artificial sand beach near the hotel, but I'm not sure you'll want to leave the Saccharum during your stay : )

It was my birthday and my husband and the stuff sneaked into room during breakfast and decorated room with balloons, champagne and a piece of cake! That was such a cool surprise! Appreciate that! We had huge room with large balcony and sea view. The restaurant on the second floor was OUTSTANDING! I mean we took 2 sets and that was absolutely unbelievable experience, we have been to a lot of places but this one has formed such a memory! Also the smell at the hotel is charming
