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...).

LibyaThe hotel provided a clean and well-maintained room. A small amenity was left on the table, which was a nice gesture. Overall, Villa Maria is a good option for travelers seeking a basic, clean hotel stay. It won't blow you away, but it gets the job done.

NetherlandsThere was some noise from the street when the windows were open, but this cannot be avoided in such a location. The service was a little inconsistent: sometimes I got two coffee capsules, sometimes one (two per would have been appreciated). The check-in process didn't really work. I had to phone the reception in the other location. When it's quiet at night, you can hear steps in the neighbouring room. No tv in the room - not a problem, but sometimes I kinda like to have it on.
The bathroom was new and comfortable, with nice toiletries provided. There was a coffee/tea maker in the room and a few free items in the minibar. The bed was large and comfortable. European sockets are installed on the desk. Swiss ones are close to the bed, easy to use. The room location on the more quiet side and with windows on two sides was lovely. Of course, I appreciated the view to the mountains and the lake. Location is great: close to the lake and a few steps from the bus stop or a 15 mins walk to the town centre.

AustraliaThe room was big enough for a couch which would have added to the comfort and allowed us to enjoy the lake views.
Great location, close to bus station. Generous minibar, snacks and fruit provided for free. Accede to well equipped kitchen if you wanted to cook for yourself. Access to lounge area and tv downstairs. We were able to check in early before returning our hire car which made life very easy.

GermanySome pictures on the wall were very ugly, for me it didn't really bother me, but I can imagine that for some people it might even be a bit disturbing. The bed mattress was a bit too soft for my taste, but that is really personal preference, I guess.
Very thoughtful staff (they left a handwritten message for my wife's birthday and upgraded the room without ask) Very clean Great location The beverages on the fridge were all included There was a coffee machine on the room

United KingdomWe didn't have the best room on the front, but it was probably the cheapest, which suited us. The aircon unit was big and noisy, but effective in the heat. Options for tea and coffee were provided for just one person. Communications and check-in didn't run smoothly for me. I felt I was an inconvenience. Everything was supposedly automated, but it didn't work as expected. They were confident, but I was concerned. However, it did work out ok in the end. I would stay again.
Great location, close to regular bus service that was easy to use. We also had a pleasant 20-minute walk into Luzern alongside the lake, away from the road. It was nice to have the fridge stocked with complimentary beer, water, and soft drinks. There was also fresh fruit available in the lobby and snacks in our room. Better than most hotels!
