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.).

SpainWe didn’t like the parking situation, though we recognise that with the position of the hotel there is nothing they can do about the parking. Also we thought it was quite expensive at €27 a day with just a small discount via the hotel. We didn’t find it easy to find the parking and then had the walk to the hotel with our luggage, longer than two minutes!! It’s a massive car park. We were on level two underground. My advice would be to remember the number of your parking space and the position of your exit above ground!!
The Aldamar is in an excellent position for exploring San Sebastián. It was nice to have coffee, tea and biscuits provided at any time. We loved our room, the Junior Suite, a large room with a seating area with coffee table. It overlooked a boulevard so was a great place to sit and ‘watch the world go by’. Staff were very friendly and helpful and everything was very clean.

United StatesThis is a pension, not a full service hotel. However, for what it is, it is superb.
The location is excellent - on the Boulevard with short walks to excellent restaurants/cafes with easy access to public transportation in the beautiful old areas of the city.

United StatesNothing it was fantastic! I would however like to note that there is no staff after 8 pm. I barely made the check-in but wondered what would have happened if something went wrong and could only check in after that time. Just something to be mindful of.
This lovely hotel was close to EVERYTHING. I took the bus from Bilbao to San Sebastian and the bus stop/ Renfe "train station" were both walkable to this hotel. It was within walking distance of the water, lovely shops, bars, and even the markets if you wanted to buy groceries. My room was lovely and the huge balcony was a major bonus and worth it if you ask me. There was free water and drinks in the refrigerator, which is always a nice touch. There was no breakfast but there was an all-you-can-drink yummy coffee that was available in the open area. The front desk people were lovely and gave me great recs and helped me figure out my taxi situation when I needed it. Would totally stay again and recommend it.

Location brilliant between the old city, the beach and the modern shopping district. Nearby subsidised parking a major plus, in fact a necessity if you're driving. Room nice and had a balcony with views of the city. Free coffee and mini bar (yep free!) totally unexpected and welcome. Staff (Oscar) friendly and helpful.

AustraliaI though the room would be a little bigger, like the one in the photo but it was quite small and my bags had to go under the bed, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to move around to the room to go to the bathroom.
