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...).

SpainEverything is immaculate! High cleanliness standards, amazing design and quality of mater used, friendly staff.
The hotel is perfectly located on the one of the best beaches in Costa Brava. Safe and well kept peaceful and beautiful place, surrounded by amazing nature, walking paths, just a short walk from L’Escala with all its charming restaurants and bars. I love this hotel, it’s our second getaway here and it’s a great experience! It’s also dog-friendly so we could take our chihuahua with us.

FranceWe got stuck in the lift just after we checked in! Still waiting for our free drink in recompense! Also there is a lot of glass; windows and doors. You have to be alert so that you don’t walk into a door thinking it’s open. But they do let in a lot of light which is good.

SpainFamilies with children in the dinning room should be informed and ask to be polite ( not noisy!!!) to not break calm and silence, which is the great treasure of this wonderful place.

GermanyThe rooms are a bit on the small side, but quite well designed. The restaurant is excellent, but the menu is a bit too small if you stay longer. It becomes a bit repetitive. There are also very, very few vegetarian options. It would be also good if snacks e.g. sandwiches were available when the restaurant is closed (between 5 and 8 pm) as there is no other option to eat nearby.
This is a wonderful, tastefully designed house with great common rooms, restaurant, a library and a huge terrace right at the beach. The location next to the ruins of EMPURIES is exceptional and offers great walls to the nearby town of St.Marti d’Empuries and L’Escala. The beach is perfect for swimming and for families with children. The hotel also has an outdoors café, that offers food based on old Roman recipes and drinks.
