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.).

CroatiaSome small children created a big mess in wellness area (although this is more in responsibility of their parents and not a fault of hotel personnel).
A lot of choices for breakfast buffet. We got a free upgrade of room. They even provided me with a 3XL bathrobe which is a rare pleasure. Everything is clean and personnel is very friendly.

HungaryNew, modern hotel, with spacious rooms, noise proof walls. The breakfast buffet was excetptional, as well as the staff at the food&bev dep. They remembered that my brother had gluten allergy . . Everything was perfect. We stayed at a pretty off season period, though the hotel was full. Novalja is small but a beauty, walking distance everything. The whole island was a chill and relaxing destination at Easter.

CroatiaWe booked room 2 + 2, but an additional bed was smaller than expected. That was a little bit inconvenient. I missed some more hangers for drying clothes and swimsuits, since you need this when coming from the pool.
Great stuff is always worth of place No1! 👌 🙂 Really nice pool area with jacuzzi and sauna. Delicious breakfast choice. Room service with good options. We got towels for the bathroom and additional ones for the pool. Additional touch of service can describe the situation when we easily arranged birthday surprise for our kid during breakfast. Respect for service!

UkraineChecking the mini bar daily is very annoying. We set "do not disturb" and were woken up 2 times Service in the restaurant was sometimes very slow
Really good breakfast and food in the restaurant. Prices in the restaurant are also reasonable. The room was pretty standard. This hotel is not on the first line, so the sea view is quite far away, but nevertheless we liked it.

Nicely designed and decorated hotel, cosy room with big walk-in shower. Pleasant outside pool area with enough sunbeds for all guests (there is also inside pool but we didn't use it). Rich and tasty breakfast (included in room price) as well as good offering daily snacks. 10 minutes walk to the center of Novalja.

SpainOne minor downside was the loud live music in the hotel lobby that could be heard in the room. However, it stopped by 10 pm so it didn't affect our ability to get a good night's sleep. Our room was also located next to a construction site, resulting from loud noise (luckily we didn't spend much time in the room during the day). Another downside we experienced was that there were some loud and disruptive individuals in the normally quiet spa area. Despite the disturbance, the lady at the spa reception did not take any action to calm the situation or enforce the spa's quiet policy. Also, they don't provide an extra sheet for use in the sauna like they normally do in spa's, you can buy an extra towel for 7 EUR.
Our stay at Hotel Olea was nothing short of wonderful. The hotel is fairly new and well-maintained, providing a clean and comfortable atmosphere. It is conveniently located close to the city center, which allowed us to walk and explore the area. The highlight of our stay was the indoor and outdoor pool area, as well as the spa. The new deck chairs with a little canopy over head were a nice touch, adding to the overall relaxation experience. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive, always ready to help with anything we needed. We also enjoyed the breakfast, particularly the delicious omelette. The hotel exceeded our expectations from the previous year, with even more friendly staff and a better overall feeling. They even allowed us to extend our check-out time without any issues, which was greatly appreciated.
