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.).

Absolutely stunning hilltop location with awesome views. Welcoming staff who also kindly arranged safe storage for our bicycles. Lovely to have a short swim in the pool. Very special evening meal outside and the best breakfast in Croatia so far.

The radiation of the hotel and its surroundings is fantastic. Calm, quiet. The breakfast was very delicious. The indoor pool was very pleasant, it was nice to take a dip in it. We cycled around the area, the location is good, although it is difficult to wind up the mountain at the end of the day. It has a convenient bicycle storage room.

GermanyTo reach our room it was necessary to go up two flights of relatively narrow steps. Fortunately, when we checked in, restaurant staff helped with our luggage. In any event, people with mobility limitations might find the steps challenging.
We enjoyed our stay at Boutique Hotel Vela Vrata. We liked being in the very quiet old town at the top of the hill: the view, the peace, the green, the birds, the ancient streets and houses were all very welcome. Our room was comfortable, though we would have preferred a brighter room with fewer decorative objects. Breakfast was served in a large, airy dining room, and a wide range of foods was available. Our one dinner at the hotel was very good. The terrace in front of the hotel is very nice. Incidentally, Buzet is a convenient base for visiting the numerous old stone towns (and their churches and frescoes) in central Istria. In early June parking in Buzet was not a problem.

GermanyMy 3rd stay here, so I can only repeat: I have been traveling in Croatia since many years - meanwhile in all 21 counties (županije incl. Zagreb) - and I must have stayed in more than 30 different guesthouses and hotels. From the smallest family pension in the countryside to large 4-star hotels. And the Boutique Hotel Vela Vrata was one of my very best experiences ever! :D Beautiful, lovely decorated house and very clean room with nice furniture and a stylish bathroom with big shower! Very friendly staff, SUPER breakfast with fresh and high quality food from a large selection!!! :D Well working WiFi, free parking and I also like the big indoor pool very much. Buzet itself is very romantic and beautiful. I have stayed again only for one night on my way home from Dalmatia. The Hotel has a really supreme restaurant and it was wonderful to eat again one of the best dinner I had ever in Croatia, outside with this fantastic view over the city wall! A more than perfect stay and I will stay here again - but hopefully then for more than just one night! ;-) Hvala vama od srca!

United StatesWe had an issue with our air conditioning putting out a bad smell to the point of shutting it off. To the hotel’s credit we did not notify them until we were checking out and they may have changed our room if we had notified them earlier.
The hotel was lovely with exceptional staff. Right inside Old Town gate with free parking nearby. They have an amazing indoor pool that was wonderfully refreshing after a hot day of touring- we had it all to ourselves. They also have a spa with large whirlpool and sauna that you can reserve for two hours of privacy included with your stay. Breakfast is amazing- a large buffet with multiple hot and cold options. We also had a good meal at the restaurant. Our room was small but comfortable.
