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...).

SpainNice, spacious rooms with extra high ceilings have plenty of room for our family of 4. Lovely welcome details like fresh squeezed juice and natas, as well as detailed maps and restaurants lists were nice touches.

United StatesHad i known our room was in a basement without windows that we could open we would have booked another room. I feel this needs to be transparent when booking. While the room was spacious it felt like a basement and abit claustrophobic to be honest. No fresh air
Staff was superb. Great breakfast and snacks and drinks.

We had a large suite for my family of 4. It was great! Very roomy. The breakfast had a lot of options. We had dinner there as well & it was delicious. The staff were all very friendly & helpful. While we didn’t sit up on the rooftop deck, we took a peek & it was nice! Excellent sunset view & a view of the University.

SpainThe breakfast could be improved. The bakeries were nice, but the selection of cheese and ham was limited, the fried eggs lacked flavor, and the tea was too weak.
A very nice hotel that truly deserves the label "boutique," perfectly located for exploring the main sights of Coimbraand if you're lucky, you get a room with wonderful views over the city and the river.

United StatesLovely hotel in probably the best location in the city. Staff was super friendly even though we checked in late after booking only an hour earlier. They made sure we got dinner before the kitchen closed. The breakfast buffet was very well stocked with lots of healthy and yummy options.

BelgiumThe breakfast/restaurant staff seemed to have zero training on food allergies (in this case, gluten/lactose). Best to triple check when ordering something. Breakfast selection could use a few additional items: dry-cured ham (presunto), hard cheese, bananas, almond milk.
Modern room with all needed amenities, and spotlessly clean. Comfy mattress (medium-hard). Very nice rooftop terrace with a great view over Coimbra. The hotel has its own restaurant with good dishes and beautiful setting (both interior and in the quiet, leafy courtyard). Hats off to the hotel's designer. Friendly, smiling and polite staff at reception and cleaning. Great location to explore the old town on foot. Overall, a very good experience, and how a modern 'boutique' hotel should feel like.

PortugalWe were only advised about road closures due to a festival a few hours before we arrived. If we were informed the day before, we could have planned our trip there better. In addition, this festival, which clearly happens every year, was so extremely loud, that we left the hotel at 2 am, as it was impossible to sleep even with double glazed windows closed and earplugs in our ears. They should have alerted us to this.
The hotel feels like a haven in the centre of Coimbra

United KingdomBreakfast options a bit limited, standard fare. Pre cooked hot meals are never very appealing in my view.
Great hotel and restaurant ( in an area with not many good choices this stands out) well located for the university and medieval old town. Modern interiors complement the old buildings. Staff are all friendly and excellent especially the charming and entertaining restaurant manager Joel.
