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 KingdomOur bin had not been emptied as part of cleaning after previous occupant, and following our complaint, it was promptly addressed. The restaurant staff were helpful, but we felt they need more customer service training to match the 5 stars and our expectations.
The spa was great. The rooms very cosy and did not miss a thing. Beds and pillows were very comfortable. Staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. A great stay overall and would come again.

BulgariaOne of the two things I didn’t like is that our bathroom and shower were separated. Would have prefered a room where they are in one.
It was situated in the woods and not in the city. Very quiet and peaceful. Everything in the hotel is perfect.

BulgariaI really cannot think of anything we did not like. The only thing I can say if I have to say something is that the tv is built into the wall and it was not a smart tv so I could not plug in my google chrome so that we could watch something we wanted from an app. Also we went during the first hot spring days and the convector was still not turned from heat to cool so we did not have AC in the room. That was fine because if you opened a window it was cold outside and fresh air could come in and it is a problem you will not have once the convector is set for the summer or winter. Also I guess I wrote to the hotel to put my mom (who has a disability) close to an elevator but I guess there was a misunderstanding and that was not arranged but she was on the first floor and it was an easy walk to everything so it was not a problem. To be honest, we would definitely return and none of the abovementioned were really a problem for us.
The staff was very friendly and kind. The hotel is situated right next to the forest and there are trails into the woods. The spa has many pools - one pool that can be used during the summer with normal pool temperature and a few hot pools including Jacuzzis in the woods which were really nice. The breakfast and dinner were the best I have seen and tasted - so much choice and everything was fresh and delicious, it was unbelievable! The apartment was very spacious although there was only one shower for four people, two bathrooms. The room was much smaller but still a good size. The massages and the facials were also very nice, we recommend them and they are well priced. It is a beautiful hotel but also the service is impressive! We had everything we needed to have a great time and a relaxing luxurious vacation!

RomaniaSome spots in the pool area have mold The outdoor pool is cold, it could be warmer Some of the food is not ok, some of the meet is hard, and difficult to chew The lobby bar should have more options, especially for wines The shower is difficult to use.
The hotel is very beautiful and silent We had an apartment, which is a good size room The room is very silent, and well isolated. In one night there was a party nearby, which we could clearly hear from outside of the hotel, but in the room was completely silence. Most of the food is very good tasting. The staff is very kind and happy. The spa is very large, with lots of options: about 10 sauna, 4 pools, 4 small pools in the forest, good massages. I suggest to have some live music at dinner, will make the experience greater. Very good place to relax.

JapanCleaning the toilets in the spa center more often and refilling the hand soap etc. would be appreciated.
The location, the rooms, the spa center and the restaurant, everything was just perfect! We would appreciate offering better coffee though, for example specialty coffee would be great for such high class hotel.

BulgariaThe mattress is a bit soft to my liking + there were some issues with the mattress frame, which I managed to fix myself very quickly. This is just a small area for improvement.
A true 5-star experience. The rooms are big, comfortable and well decorated (as are all facilities). Everything you need is provided and is of high / premium quality. The spa area is big, well tough out and not crowded even if the hotel is full. One of the best saunas I have ever been in is the little house in the woods. Such a great idea! So are the small hot tubs in the woods. Food is delicious. Both breakfast and dinner. Dinner is served the way it should be in all hotels that include dinner in the price - you choose food from a dinner menu and not a buffet.

BulgariaThe room was toasting hot on arrival. Someone had thought 28 degrees is appropriate room temperature. Most of the time we were awake in the room we had to keep the door open to cool down.
The staff was amazing. The food in the restaurant and the service was once of the best we've experienced across all hotel restaurants we've been to. The spa offers a wide variaty of options and the jacuzzis in the first are simply a great place to relax.
