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.).

United StatesWe loved our stay at Villa Nepos and would recommend to anyone. The hosts were wonderful meeting us and carrying our bags to our room. The breakfast each morning was delicious and convenient. We wish our rooms had been in the same building but this was not possible. There were some flies in one of our apartments which were annoying. All in all we could not have been more comfortable in the heart of Old Split.

United KingdomThe photographs do not do the property justice. It is like living in history. The hotel/apartment is nestled between the historic remnants of the Roman world. The property itself is stunning and in keeping with its location. The staff at the property are very helpful and happy to suggest things to do and places to eat.

United KingdomThe location of the hotel apartment was absolutely perfect and enabled us to explore the city with ease. The space was incredible - beautifully presented and very clean. We wanted to stay longer! The breakfast was offered was delicious with fresh organise juice and coffee. I cannot recommend highly enough. Our two children loved their stay too and we look forward to returning. The Manager was also amazing - helped with our luggage and airport transfer. Brilliant! Thank you.

United StatesOnly issue is finding the door for the reception. It is on an unassuming street with small sign easy to map quest Call and make sure reception is there if you arrive before check in time to store your bags.
This is not a hotel. Several large unit with kitchen bed room and baths decorated in historically correct design. It is very close to great restaurants, is in the Roman city and a few blocks from the port

United KingdomLocation, interior styling, space with attentive, helpful hosts. Was the perfect end to our stay in Croatia. The location meant we could get up early and have a meander through the streets of Split before it got busy. Would def recommend and should we return to Split in the future we would definitely look to book Vila Nepos.

United KingdomExcellent property located in the heart of Old Town. Extremely spacious and well equipped, it was perfect for us in the mid-point of our road trip up the Adriatic Coast (we started in Dubrovnik). It worked very well for us as our girls are now 11 & 13 so we definitely now need more space than we did before.

You feel like a king in your castle! Its so nice and quiet. You cant believe you are actually in the middle of Split. Once you enter the building it feels like you entered a castle in the middle of the forest. And then you open the window and see you are in historical part of town which is amazing.

We were right in the palace and everything was within the walking distance, including the main port. Lovro reached out a day before our check in and stayed in touch and I texted him whenever I had any questions. He helped us out numerous times. It was an amazing stay! Highly recommended!

It was a home away from home in the heart of Split. Everything was so thought through. The service with an airport service to tour ideas were amazing. We got to rest at a home environment, washed our clothes from the previous trip and stepped out to the vibrant Split old town within seconds. Everything was super clean and five star!

AustraliaOnly minor things. We would have appreciated if beach towels were provided and we didn't have to buy them for the 4 of us for only one swim. Also recommend adding hand soap in the kitchen:)
The decor is stunning, in character with being part of the Diocletian Palace. It is a superb look with quality fittings, furniture and wonderful art work. Great shower, air con effective (it was 40 degrees whilst we were there so it was tested!) and beds are comfortable. The location cannot be beaten. Toma the manager welcomed us on arrival, helping with (heavy) bags and did the same farewelling us on departure. He was excellent, always available for advice and assistance - very personable. The breakfast can be taken a la carte at a delightful restaurant around the corner or if you prefer a buffet at another nice cafe a few more steps away but still close. Both were good. We enjoyed our stay!

United StatesMy only suggestion would be to offer a washcloth with the bath towels and hair conditioner with the shampoo. That would be really convenient and make the stay a bit more comfortable.
The staff was so kind and thoughtful and willing to offer suggestions for meals and let us know about the nearby attractions. It was really fun to stay within Diocletions Palace walls. We could hear the music from the square, seek small breaks in the air conditioning during the heat of the day, get Gelato anytime we felt like it, and overall, the ambiance and vibe of the old town and Riva. Beautiful and comfy accommodations. An unforgettable view from the windows. Nice to have breakfast before starting our day. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Split!

United StatesNothing about the room could have been better,, it was great. We did have a car and parking is very hard, there is a surface lot about a five minute walk but it was full when we got there so we had to drive around, the host was very helpful, he came with us and we found a spot, but driving in Croatia was somewhat challenging, the highways are fine but the city roads are ridiculously narrow and winding, no guardrails.
The apartment looked exactly or nicer that the pictures, it was just beautiful. Tomislav was our contact and he was amazing, really helpful with everything. The location is right in the old town, there is breakfast included, which is a nice buffet. The room is really amazing.
