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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

Turks & Caicos IslandsThe drinks at the pool bar was 5 out of 10, the outside of the boulevard had a lot of noises between the afternoon hours until around 5 or 6 pm because they’re fixing the bay area and we understand that its outside of the hotel control.
The room was very comfortable and had great view. The breakfast was very nice, Mr.Amauri from room service what an excellent service always with a smile very authentic with the interaction with the wife and I. The property is well located and looks just as the pictures for us it served its purpose by just disconnecting and relaxing in the facility. We even stayed an extra night.

United StatesI was charged over 6,000 pesos for a tequilla cocktail. Be sure to confirm the price before ordering from the bar. This happened at the rooftop pool bar.
The hotel stay was very pleasant. I would definitely stay here again. It's in walking distance to restaurants and stores. Also, the staff was very friendly and helpful.

The location is excellent, close to the docks where you can take a boat to the beautiful Cayo Levantado which we visited with my partner. The restaurants and bars are short walk distance too. The hotel room was huge and very very clean. The staff was very nice and helpful. I would highly recommend this place. The roof top pool is incredible! I've attached pictures of the view from our room and from the pool.

SpainThe room part of our suite was giving to back of the hotel, where all A/C are installed, the noise was a little bit uncomfortable… The water of the swimming pool was not clean and chemicals inside where not equilibrated… our swimming baths where ruined!
The hotel is new and very comfortable. We travel with a baby so we choose the superior room which has a separate bedroom. Very spacious, powerful A/C and comfortable bed.

FranceThe bar staff were often quite slow. Also, this hotel is a new complex with construction work still progressing on one block.
The pools and views from the roof terrace are great. The gym also has great views and is pretty well equipped. The breakfast was really good too.

CanadaLocation may not work for some - you need a car for almost everything. Booking process wasn't straightforward. Impossible to call the reception - always busy.
Good location away from the busy streets, but only 5 minutes away from restaurants. The property is newly built, decently-sized rooms, the pool on the roof is instagram perfect. Good underground parking. Good variety for breakfast. Don't expect to see a good beach nearby.

HungaryUnfortunately we had to leave … 😀
That was really a fantastic stay! The staff was very kind, helping us in an early check-in. The rooms are big, clean and the view is really amazing. The roof-top bar was extremely good for relaxing and swimming and we also enjoyed their dinners, as well. Wide selection of wines (especilly red wines). Highly recommended!
