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.).

United StatesNothing really to complain about, just note there is no lift but they make arrangements to help you with all your luggage so no problem at all. Also, temporary plumbing noise when water is turned on, but it goes away after using.
The staff (especially Daniel and Katarina) were really attentive and sweet, the location is close to everything, our room is so spacious (restaurants next to it are great food, there is a Michelin restaurant not too far!), the welcome wine, fruits and treats inside the room were really nice and thoughtful, breakfast was delicious! Easy to get around, Uber can pick you up right in front of the hotel.

Portugal… but the breakfast room (former kitchen) was right next door to our room (former dining room), meaning we were woken up every morning at 7:00 by staff preparing breakfast…
A very central location at the heart of Chiado, close to the Baixo/Chiado subway stop; an elegant building — once the palatial city residence of a wealthy family — within walking distance of multiple restaurants; a large, well-appointed, beautiful room with big windows, elegantly decorated with antiques — probably the palace’s former dining room judging from the garlands of fruit carved on its ceiling; a luxurious black marble bathroom with plush towels and robes; a beautiful breakfast spread served in the tiled former kitchen; very pleasant staff — almost perfect…

United StatesThe breakfast area is a bit small. Since we were on the second floor, it didn't bother us without an elevator. Despite that, we had a great time staying here.
The building is over two hundred years old but has been well maintained. The room we stayed in was very spacious and had a lot of style. We booked a large room for a four-night stay, and it exceeded our expectations. It felt like we were staying in a cool guest room of a castle. The hotel is in a great location, with many local restaurants, attractions, and boutique stores within walking distance. The breakfast was delicious, and the staff gave us a warm and personal welcome. It was such a great stay!

This beautiful hotel is in prime location. The room was absolutely divine and the bathroom was spotless. The reception and staff were so friendly and accommodating to every need. Breakfast was perfect. Eggs were always moist made fresh every 10-15 mins, good variety of cold meats, cheeses, croissants, fresh fruit and fruit juices which was modified each day. Would recommend 1000% we will be back for sure. Thank you Bordalo palace Team you were a highlight to our stay.

United StatesThe building is historic so if you are looking for modern conveniences (e.g. elevator) you will not find them. Some people may be turned off by the historic feel of the rooms - I would describe them as vintage.
Breakfast was great. The water pressure was great. We appreciated the large counter in the bathroom. The rooms are enormous! The staff - Daniel in particular - was exceptionally helpful & friendly. All spoke English. The location is fantastic, with an easy walk to the Metro and Rossi train station.

SwedenBreakfast was a bit sparse and the breakfast room itself smallish, which made it a little crowded in the morning. Walls are pretty thin so you may hear some noise from the corridor. Not a major thing but I'm personally not a big fan of fitted carpets. Overall a little overpriced, but then again so are most accommodations in Lisbon.
Nice old building, good location and clean and spacious rooms. Staff was friendly and helpful. Loved the old-style interior.

CanadaYou need to walk up stairs to your room (there is no elevator), but we were expecting this so more as an fyi. Not suitable if you have accessibly issues. Some other reviews mentioned that the plumbing is loud when you use the water - this is true, and kind of odd but not an issue. Confirming it if you’re reading other reviews but who cares, haha.
The staff were very friendly, always offering assistance or suggestions. We even got a hand written note on our last day, lots of personal touches. The suite was a nice size, especially for an older building. Fairly comfortable bed and no issues with the room. Cool atmosphere and room decor. Nice that breakfast was included, delicious croissants. The best part was the location, you’re right in middle of many landmarks and restaurants.

The property was exactly what I was looking for our first Lisbon visit. It was beautiful and welcoming. From reception to the breakfast room to our room - all were immaculate and comfortable at the same time. The staff were helpful with what ever we needed, from dinner reservations to directions. The location made it so easy to get to all of the sights. I highly recommend Bordalo.
