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...).

NetherlandsThe pillows were too high and were hard to sleep on. The choice of non-alcoholic beverages like mocktails/cava was very limited and relatively expensive. 6.5 euro for a half liter of sparkling water is preposterous - we only noticed this on the bill that we received after payment (?). The food at the restaurant was good but not exceptional.
Beautiful castle, with very spacious, well equipped room and very nice bathroom. Very clean.

NetherlandsWe liked the king size bed, but it only had two pillows. Too few for such a big bed, but moreover, the pillows were very thick and uncomfortable to sleep on. I know pillows are very much a personal preference, but the hotel could consider providing a set of pillows of different size. (and a few extra scatter cushions would also look great on the king size bed.
Being an historic building the hotel had a lot of atmosphere and grandeur. We had a room in the old main building, which were very spacious, with high ceilings and beautiful high windows, fully opening. Beautiful garden and surrounds. Excellent breakfast.

BelgiumThe mattresses were moving around in the bed, as they are not attached to anything - although the bed itself is pretty comfortable. The bathrooms could get a bit smelly quickly if you keep the door closed. This has nothing to do with the property but there are really no decent options for dinner around (walking distance at least).
Lovely place to stay at! Nice, large bathrooms, quiet location, good service, nice bathrooms, plenty of parking spots, and much more. Breakfast really good, I would highly recommend you to include that in your stay. The grounds were also really nice but unfortunately one part of it was closed and we were not able to walk around there. The hotel bar is pretty cool, and they have some very nice cocktails.

We really enjoyed our stay in this hotel. The hotel has a great atmosphere at a picturesque location. Perfect for a weekend getaway. The room was nicely decorated, clean and quiet during the whole day. Good variety of choices for breakfast. Recommending to reserve a table in the restaurant well in advance for dinner. Free parking available.
