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 KingdomA bit dated in parts Not a major issue but room service expected us to set our own tables. We were a family of 4 over 2 rooms and room service watched as we carried a table through from one bedroom to the next and then arranged everything. Didn’t offer to hold the door open. Would have helped if they could leave the trolley with you
Large room with balcony Great pool area with hot tubs and steam rooms Good (but not brilliant) breakfast Free and regular shuttle to the gondola 10 minute walk to slopes and top of town

RomaniaWe had New Year's Gala Dinner in "Nectar Bar", which we chose because it was adult-only. Unfortunately we will never have gala dinner at the hotel again. In the previous years we celebrated New Year's Eve in "Amvrosia" restaurant. I don't remember being bothered so terribly by the music's volume, as we were this year. I highly appreciate that one hostess listened to my remarks and the volume was turned down a little bit (I had been promptly refused by other hostesses). It was probably not up to them. The food was good but we could not enjoy it. The service was not too good, they were fast but definitely overwhelmed and therefore we sat with empty used plates in front of us for most of the evening.
The rooms are spacious and comfortable. There is a spa - quite crowded in general. I liked having dinner at "Amvrosia" restaurant, the food was really good. The hotel has a large parking. They offer shuttle transport to the gondola. I also liked the ski service at the hotel (very professional guy, I appreciated what he did except for his remark about romanian service. Let's say it was a joke and forget about.).

United KingdomThe only comment we had was the last shuttle bus from the gondola to the hotel could have been later than 5pm for those wanting to have a drink after a long day of skiing, although there were plenty of taxis waiting and only 15lev back to the hotel.
The breakfast was excellent with lots of options, the staff were all really welcoming and friendly, the were rooms clean…and warm! The hotel shuttle bus to the gondola was excellent and left from the hotel every 15 minutes (3 minute drive). We hired our ski’s, poles and boots from the hotel ski rental and Vic was outstanding! He was knowledgable, friendly, organised and patient with us (as a group of 11). We hired our ski pass directly from the Gondola office and the VIP pass was not required when skiing in Jan, although we were told it gets a lot busier getting into Feb.

RomaniaBiggest problem is the bed - mattress could really do with updating. Also there are no accessible power outlets close to the bed, which is a bit annoying. Other than that, Gym is bleak and outdated and dinner does not include drinks. I mean I don't expect it to include cocktails or anything fancy, but water...? These are small nitpicky details, we still had an amazing and relaxing stay :)
Bathtub in the honeymoon suite is an absolute dream! The room was huge and spotless, very quiet and with a nice view. Breakfast nice and varied, staff very friendly, location close to town center (<10 minute walk), plenty of parking, spa facilities were very nice and relaxing.

United KingdomThe parking was limited but not an issue for us. The gym is basic but for a short stay its OK. Very little else to criticise, it was a lovely place to be.
This property is older but of a very good standard. Rooms were large and very comfortable. Everything is well maintained and the staff are great. It probably helped we went before the season really started so the staff to guests ratio was in our favour. We had the lovely surprise of a free bottle of wine waiting for us. The SPA is good, and the pool is lovely. Breakfast was excellent. Very little to fault, I would stay again.

North MacedoniaThe room was a bit too dark for my taste. Also the door from the room had no key from the inside and you cannot lock it. The sheets in the bedroom had some strange smell.
There was plenty of storage in the room for everything. The staff is helpful and friendly.
