Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

PortugalThe only thing I missed a little, and I am sure my wife who does not speak English is the fact that they have no English news and or movie channels.
I was the first time there and will be back with my wife later this year. The bed was for me too small, but I chose the single room with a single bed by myself, so nothing to do with the hotel - I will not repeat this should I again stay there alone. The location is for me just great, in the middle of the woods/park - ideal for walking and bike riding. The restaurant was excellent and exceeded my expectations, not on the low end of the price range of course, but that is justified.

Loved our stay! Gorgeous property in a peaceful location. Free parking. Elevator so you don’t have to carry bags upstairs. Our room was huge, warm and comfortable. We ate dinner at the restaurant and it was very enjoyable, wonderful service and delicious food. Breakfast was set up at the table for you, eggs cooked to order and was a lovely start to the day. We loved meeting Captain, the guest relations dog, he’s gorgeous! Thank you for a lovely evening!

United KingdomThe satnav sent us down a wooded road, where we had to turn around and get back to the main road to find the correct way to the premises. Better signposting is required, especially for dark Winter months. Small details - there was no working extractor fan in the windowless bathroom, so the room got very steamy when the shower was used. No air conditioning on a very hot day but we were abe to open the windows wide, so it was bearable.
Food and service was excellent. Room clean, nice decor and generous size. The staff very nice and helpful. The location was beautiful.
