Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomThe parking could be a problem, unless you follow it to the letter! I had read a previous review on here so knew to followed their instructions, but had to copy these and put through Google Translate, so an English version on the hotel website would be useful. We did follow the instructions and parked where told- so it was fine. Luckily we had a sat nav, as it would have been difficult to navigate through the city and one way roads without it. We kept the parking ticket and took to the hotel and got a receipt from the taxi driver - The hotel sorted out the exit ticket from the car park and took off the taxi fare. As the breakfast room is small you have to choose an allocated time. We had to go for 8am as we had to get to the Alhambra for a tour.
Location was excellent. we could easily walk to lots of restaurants/shops etc. The reason for our trip to Granada was to visit the Alhambra - we were able to walk there from the hotel - do make sure if you want to visit you book your ticket in advance - we saw a disappointed family who had turned up but could not go in. We did a 3 hour guided tour which was excellent. The hotel is lovely, with an olde-worlde feel, we had a huge room with spa bath and Rituals bath products, and even got BBC News - first time on our trip! Bed was super comfy. Staff were lovely. Do follow the instructions to the car park, and get the taxi as they suggest and keep the receipt. Breakfast was continental style. The city is actually pretty big. We only stayed for one night, but could easily have done two.

United States of AmericaWe were forewarned about the tricky parking and driving but misunderstood exactly how to get our voucher to park in a nearby structure at a special rate. I was under the impression that we had to go to the front to retrieve a voucher before parking. This led to a frenzied driving experience through town but at no fault of the facility. Just a miscommunication. It all worked out in the end. We also had trouble with our room radiators emitting too much heat the 1st night. We called for support and someone came in and tried to help but couldn’t figure it out either. The hotel staff were dedicated to helping us lower the temperature. Our subsequent stay had a pleasant enough temperature. Incidentally, there was a sulfurous smell coming from the bathroom piping and the shower didn’t drain very well. We were not sure about the plumbing situation in the old buildings. Again, this did not affect our stay in a negative way. It was just peculiar and a bit smelly in the bathroom but we just kept the door closed so as not to make the rest of the space smell. We also spent most of our time outside of our room. The room was otherwise very lovely and quite comfortable.
This facility was lovely and had a very unique location in Granada. Staff was all very helpful with our questions and even went out of their way to find the answers to questions they didn’t already know. They tried to help us get tickets to the sold out Alhambra and gave us recommendations for getting our son’s haircut. Everyone was extremely kind and helpful.

SwedenThe only thing I can think of is that noise travels through the walls, but it was pretty quiet outside and in the hotel so it didn’t really bother us.
Location is perfect, we had a beautiful view over the Alhambra. Breakfast was perfect, and served 8-11. Bed was really comfortable.

AustriaFacilities need renovation, a bit too "rustic" to qualif, as "charming" in our opinion. Noise from the lobby as the room door is razor-thin. Small bed for 2pax (140cm) in a room which could easily house a king-size bed (220cm).
Old house / palace, room w view on parts of the Alhambra w a nice protruding window. Not cheap, but still moderately priced. Surprisingly quiet despite lots of pedestrian and the occasional motor bike traffic.

United States of AmericaI booked one of the suites with Alhambra views and it was fantastic. The room had a vintage feel to it, with a four poster bed, but was very comfortable with great AC. It’s dated but not in a run down way, seems very intentional and I enjoyed not staying in a cliche modern hotel while in Granada. Lovely building and interior spaces.
