Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

PortugalNo complaints from me.
Absolutely love the relaxed and friendly atmosphere of this hotel. I’ve stayed at this property a number of times and have recommend it far and wide. The breakfast is basic but the food in the restaurant is very good for lunch & in the evening. It’s not a posh hotel, it’s a friendly county hotel which is excellent value for money and the views are breathtaking.

United KingdomThere could’ve been more variety at breakfast, only scrambled eggs and not that tasty sausages and a lot of bread and other tidbits but I wish there was a bit more hot food such as hash browns, and other stuff.
We had some issues as our flight got cancelled but the staff members worked really hard to insure that we got a refund for the days we didn’t stay even though bookings.com made it difficult. The staff really went above and beyond and we were super happy because otherwise we would’ve paid for double how much we actually stayed! The pool was nice, the views were stunning and the food portions were great.

PortugalIt is not that we did not like, but there were several points we were not aware of. All the rooms have the separate beds, big beds are only available in suits, this may be important when you choose a room. Also, our room was on the rising sun side, and the curtains did not help, at 7.30 am we already woke up because of sun. We asked to get the blinders, but, as I get it, nothing can be done. The service for lunch is not very fast, the food is good, but if you are in a hurry, this could be a problem.
The staff is friendly, tries to help with the possible issues.

The hotel is located not in the center of the city but with a car it's easy, there is a parking, so it's great and a restaurant that I try because I didn't want to take my car again. The food and service were very good, so perfect

United KingdomA little dated. Everything worked but the guest room and in particular, the bathrooms could do with updating. The hotel is a 10min. walk down a long hill into the small town of Alte. Better to drive down if you have a car.
Old fashioned hotel in wonderful elevated position above Alte with panoramic views. Nice restaurant. Pool and tennis courts. Plenty of onsite parking
