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 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.).

United StatesCheck out process was a hassle. I booked this hotel for my parents and I was clear from the beginning that I should be able to settle the bill the night before since they had an early train to catch. I didn't know the hotel didn't charge us the dinner for last night even though I repeatedly asked them to send me receipt for all incidentals the night before. Had to rush early in the morning to clear confusion and make payment so they could catch the train.
Food and location were great.

OmanThe floating rate of the rooms. The bathrooms have been given too much importance and space. The basin doesnt have a liquid soap dispenser! Bathroom doesnt have any dedicated place to hang clothes. The remote switches are not visible in the dark so what to press? The switch commands could be more organised. The finish of the room is a bit to grey biege basically dull! The food is not upto the mark in parches...eg we had grilled chicken which was over done The medu wadas are not fluffy enough a bit hard in fact. The grinding is not proper. The sambar was too sweet. There was sugar in sweet corn soup!(how naive) On the whole the food was not 5 star but 3 star(and some amateur cooks). There are other e.g.s too. The design of the hotel and rooms is not like Taj. There are only two restaurants they duplicate each other in food at times. The decor of C2C especially the floor is terrible. I forgot one very important incident. I booked through you and then upgraded to a larger sea view room. When we saw the room alloted the view was occupoed by a huge tree! The sea and the beach were barely seen. I had to ask them to change the room. I got a smaller room but no refund for the upgrade! Please convey all this to the management.
Liked the location. The sea view rooms with large full wall windows. Size of the rooms. General neatness and cleanliness. Very helpful and polite staff. Easy approach to the beach through shuttle.

Sir Ratan Tata apologies for being so late to experience the oh so talked about Taj hospitality. Taj, omg how can you be sooo wonderful. I work as Head of Training and could see everything i taught throughout my career was being implemented here that too with a smile. Not one person looked less happy. You are a dream come true. Kudos to the entire team from check-in (Aishwarya) to guest services, BLD restaurant staff, the cashier during checkout, the car parking facility, to the lady taking care of the steam room. You all took so much of effort to make sure my 2 days were fab. I dont think my heart will settle for anything less than Taj from the next time!

United KingdomNothing to be honest but if I can be a bit picky then pre-arrival responses can be more helpful. No big deal though.
What can I say? Taj standards for equipment, cleanliness, response, food taste, view, style etc. Sounds familiar? What made the stay exceptional was staff. To name a few are Krishna, Aishwrya, Omkar from BLD restaurant, Pawan at concierge desk, Rishad, Shaurya at reception…. There are many more but unfortunately can’t remember names. All Taj staff in CdG Horizon from room service, house keeping, security to lobby are fantastic, trained well & make the difference to the stay. Thank you Taj & team !!

United KingdomThe main restaurant food could be much better. The service during breakfast buffet was excellent but the food variety and range was on lower side for a 5 Star property. There were no desserts section during breakfast and only 1-2 desserts on show. Further we had full board and we tried lunch as well during our stay. Lunch was served on Ala carte but service was exceptionally slow and food was ok. In spite of these minor points I would say it’s certainly one of best property out there with amazing staff.
Taj Horizon is amazing property with immaculately crafted interiors, spacious rooms, modern fit out and a very convenient access to beautiful beach through ongoing shuttle service between horizon and Heritage. My host Saloni was exceptionally amazing as we visited Taj to celebrate mum’s 75th bday and Saloni made sure that room is decorated for her special day. Wish we could have stayed longer but the hotel got sold out when we tried for extension. Surely our next visit is due soon.

SwedenThe administration of the J wellness circle spa was not good. We were told there were no slots for the day. I told them that I am there for my marriage anniversary but they insisted there were no slots. The front desk/duty manager however helped me get a slot. I was quite disheartened with their negligence. It made me think that we were kept aside while there was a possibility to accommodate a slot for us. But, the actual spa services were quite good. Me and my wife really enjoyed it which eventually made us feel satisfied.
Location, ambience, food, professional staff. There were enough activities to keep us entertained as we could not go out due to heavy rain. The private beach is quite nice! The staff also helped me arrange a surprise which was nice. We also got an early check-in although it was not part of the package I booked. Thank you for that
