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...).

BulgariaThe SPA was great, but too noisy for my taste, because some of the guests were speaking loudly on their phones and were using their loudspeakers, even though there were a lot of signs asking them to keep quiet and not use their phones. This is definitely not the staff's fault, but my suggestion would be to have someone from the staff to keep an eye for rule breaking in the SPA zone. Also, please take down the creepy clown picture from the stairwell to the SPA, it's not relaxing at all 😁
The room was clean and comfortable. The view was great. The restaurant was big enough so that even though there were a lot of guests, we were always able to find a table. The free parking is also always a plus.

BulgariaI had read many good reviews online and I guess my expectations were a bit too high, based on other people's opinion and the price we paid. Nothing was wrong but everything was just "good/okay". I think the swimming pools need a bit of TLC. Also, I'd expect more meal options in the buffet, shampoo, shower gels and body lotions in the rooms (not just 2 in 1 shampoo + shower gel), better quality towels and nice slippers for the SPA rather than DIY paper-like flip flops. Of course, this is just me comparing it to other spa hotels that I've stayed at, within the same price range. In general, none of the details mentioned above affected our stay and we had a nice and relaxing time there. The cleaning team are superb - very quick and efficient.
Very quiet. Staff were friendly and polite and answered all our questions.

BulgariaThe parking of the hotel was full so we had to park our car outside of the hotel.
The staff of hotel was very nice and helpful especially the man on the reception. The food in the restaurant was delicious ( traditional Bulgarian food). I recommend to book breakfast and dinner together it's totally worth it . The hotel provides towels, bathrobes and slippers. There was a huge diversity of relaxing choices( sauna , steam room ,ice room ,pools etc .). The room was fine with a small balcony and view to the mountains.

BulgariaOne of the elevators was out of order, leaving just one to be used by all guests of the hotel, which was a bit annoying. Also, the parking is a tad small but the staff does as much as they can to help with parking your car in a good spot. One night the security guard lead us to the back of the hotel so we could park comfortably.
Very nice pools and spa, good breakfast and dinner. Great staff. :)

NorwayThe rooms have thin walls, we could hear our neighbours TV all the time even at 2 am. Some parts of the pools (the water massage buttons) didn't work at the time of our stay as well as i feel the cap and shower before using the pools policy isn't strict enough and ruins the cleanliness a bit. Considering its a 4 star hotel, there really should be more amenities in the bathroom, not only a soap dispenser.
Good location, right next to train station. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff was very nice in all facilities of the hotel. They even packed us breakfast because we had to leave earlier than we had it included, which is very thoughtful and made a good impression. Overall, nice hotel, prices are much better than a lot of other hotels for what you get. I can recommend this for a relaxing weekend.

BulgariaThe pool bar prices are higher than the restaurant
The hotel is great. It has two indoor pools and one small on the outside. The water is warm and suitable for small children. The spa offers a lot of different things to explore. Very tasty food in the restaurant for a good price. Highly recommended for families. On Saturday night they even offered children animation. Room was clean and maintened every day. The view from our room was great. I'm very happy with my stay here.

BelgiumWe love it. The staff is very friendly and attentive to our needs. The hotel and the rooms are cosy. The swimming pools are clean and full with mineral water. The bar is next by and always open for a good fresh juice, coffee or cocktail while relaxing next to the pool.The wellness centre is great. Massages, treatment therapies as well as medical treatments. There is a kid's corner which our child likes a lot. We are regular guests since couple of years. Highly recommended!

RussiaThe main disappointment is the working hours of the pools. They closes the spa and the pools at 8pm. We had a late check-in and hoped to sit in a warm water outdoors to enjoy winter evening but we missed it.
The hotel has an outdoor pool opened at winter season and two indoor pools with lots of spa facilities. The outdoor winter pool was the key point for us and that was great. The hotel provided bathrobes for all guests including kids so it is possible to change in your room and go to the spa and pools area directly. We enjoyed saunas and relaxing room very much (it was a bit overcrowded in a middle of a day).

United States of AmericaAlthough the restaurant is beautiful, the food was not the best. Our package included breakfast only, which turned out to be for the better. The breakfast included a variety of dishes but many of the ingredients were inexpensive and poor quality; the fruit were not well washed. Overall, we did not stay hungry but I am glad we did not have the all inclusive option. Upon arrival we decided to have lunch there. The chicken soup had a few pieces of chicken skins and bones in it; the beef dish had mostly fat and very little meat; the cold soup ( tarator) was tasteless. We decided to have lunch and dinner elsewhere the rest of our stay. Although the hotel was wonderful, I would not recommend the restaurant at all.
The hotel is beautiful and clean; the rooms are spacious; the spa is amazing and we spent a lot of time there.
