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.).

PortugalThe hotel has a very outdated décor, which gives it a decadent look. They charge 5€ for a towel for the beach, which I had never seen. I didn't like that some inspectors were on the beach asking for the room number, it would be better to provide some bracelets. To much money for the experience
The hotel is located on an island in front of the city and is huge, with super spacious rooms and has a shuttle every half hour to the center. It has a small private beach.

United KingdomNothing not to like!!
Our room was great with a lovely balcony & amazing sea view & view of Rovinj! All kept very clean. Bed very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent with lots of choice & we particularly liked the freshly made omelettes! Dinner was buffet style but of high quality & very enjoyable & reasonably priced. The staff are a credit to the hotel. The facilities were excellent - lovely pool area & beach too with plenty of sunbeds & parasols although we were not there at peak, peak summer season so not sure how this is then but there appeared to be lots. The small bar & small cafe/bar (batimar), offered excellent drinks & lunch for when spending time at the beach. Take beach shoes as stony beach & much pleasanter with beach shoes. The service from the staff at the harbour for parking the car & collecting it after our holiday was excellent & the staff working at the bar at the info/arrival centre too. The island is beautiful & kept extremely tidy. The only difficulty they have is seagulls which can be a little troublesome. The boat ferry service is very good but only 1 per hour so you need to plan carefully. Rovinj is a beautiful town with lots of good restaurants along the seafront & up small streets. Very friendly people & its been a delight to stay at this hotel & visit Rovinj & we will definitely come again one day! Thank you to the team at maistra select hotel Katerina, Rovinj!

United KingdomThe rooms definitely need a bit of a refurbishment as they are old-fashioned. And I wish they had an all inclusive option as it is expensive for drinks if you are planning on staying there all day.
I have that it was its own island and the little boat came every hour so it was nice and easy to still explore. The pool was a great size and the views all around the island was amazing. Id love to go back one day.

AustraliaDetails for parking were not on the booking.com site - I had to look up on their website. When returning drivers only catch the shuttle to car they didn’t wait for everyone to follow back to pick up others & luggage although not that far but when you don’t speak the language etc
Away from the busyness on an island - there is a ferry every hour across & back to the old city. Breakfast was fresh & had a big selection to choose from!

AustriaThe Hotel itself is very quiet, although the older rooms have very thin walls. The bigges noise comes from the old town pubs (live music) and the hotel on the other side of the beach. So no one is to blame, but it can be a bit annoying. We were in the part that is most remote from the beach bar and all the other noise, so it was fine. The beach bar itself and the little food place there is closed at night, wich is a pity because it's a nice place to hang out after sunset.
This is really a special place -on it's own island! It came a bit of age but it has charme, the employees are friendly and cater to your every need. We liked the rocky private beach, wich is a little hidden, and the cliff jump bay, a very romantic place for sunsets! Breakfast is a big variety, and in the autumn season you can get all you can eat-dinner for 20 euros, too! Each room has a balcony, ours was like 15 sqm and had a nice view over the park to the sea! A really unique place! To get to and from the island you have to use a ferryboat, wich runs every hour till from 5.30am to 1am. The seagulls there are very funny. We had one that followed us around for five days and visited us at the beach! Water is super clean, but we saw some jellyfish where the ferryboat jetty is. But at the beach side there were none. Lots of fish, though!

United StatesBecause this property is on a small island you need to take a ferry to get there from mainland. We were told the name of the ferry was Rovinj but at times there was another ferry going this route and we almost missed it because we were not told the ferry could change. The ferry was only every hour, would have liked it to be a bit more often, at least every half hour, and that may be so when more in season, we were there at the end of the season.
The location on the island was beautiful, the views were amazing. The property was well maintained. Staff was great and ready to help. Breakfast was amazing.
