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.).

IrelandMainly due to the doors used in the hotel you can hear everything going on outside in the hallways. It got very loud a few times. Better insulated doors would make all the difference.
Very good breakfast, comfortable beds and good central location. On-street parking always available. Pool and gym were nice.

Super dooper clean and smells amazing as you enter your room. Rooms are very modern, great showers, comfortable bed. I also love the roof top pool and sun bathing areas, which was a great added bonus. Great location and very good value for money. The staff spoke good English and are very helpful. Will definitely come back again.

CanadaBreakfast was a well done buffet with a good selection of offerings. The atmosphere in the dinning room was pleasant and the staff were attentive. The hotel was central to both restaurants and tourist attractions. We found it easier to park the car and walk every where.

Lovely hotel in a traditional building set in a quiet square near the town centre. Lovely, helpful staff and comfortable rooms. Great breakfast selection and the pool is a fabulous addition. The bar area is really comfortable and there was a real fire burning the evening we stayed. You can stroll around the interesting sleepy town and Faro is a short drive away. Would come back and stay longer next time.

United StatesStaying at this hotel had one major perk - we were only a 5-minute walk away from the castle. Mornings offered a complimentary breakfast buffet with hot eggs, fresh fruit and berries, meats and cheeses, croissants, and delicious Portuguese pastries. It was also our first time experiencing a Chocolate Festival (Feira do Chocolate Loulé). We didn’t plan on it, but this 9-day event attracts thousands of visitors each year. Our favorite restaurant in Loulé was Retiro dos Arcos, where we tried the rosé wine with two entrées of fish. Only a 10-minute walk from the hotel. Renting a car was very cost-effective and allowed us to see more of the Algarve, including Olhão, Silves, and Faro. If you’re looking for a trip with a stunning coastline, beautiful beaches, Moorish castles, dolphins and peacocks (at Jardim da Alameda)—this it it! The Ria Formosa had spectacular views from the boardwalk, and we’ll definitely remember the beauty of the Albufeira Marina, Benagil sea cave, and Algar Seco.

Beautiful 3 star hotel in the centre of Loule. I could not fault it. Comfortable huge bed, hot shower with good water pressure. Lovely breakfast with a really good choice of food. A fabulous heated rooftop pool and a solarium. Everything was spotlessly clean and beautifully presented. Also extremely helpful and friendly staff. I liked that you could order a tea facility for €2.50 and a tray was brought to the room with a kettle, milk, a bottle of water, sugar and a great variety of tea bags. I would recommend this property and would certainly stay again if in the area.

Great mini break, we loved it. The hotel is really sweet. Service at breakfast (waiting for replacement crockery and food) was a little slow and check-in and bar service was a little slow too. However these are minor issues as the pace of life in Portugal is slower than the UK so it was probably a welcome slowdown 😃. Really looking forward to staying here again soon x

United KingdomMy only issue which I am assuming is not the hotel but Booking.com that I was offered a room upgrade on a romantic booking and the upgrade cancelled out my romantic booking. So on this occasion I felt disappointed.
I have stayed at the hotel previously with an excellent location, service and breakfast plentiful of hot cooked breakfast, cooked meats, cheese, fruit, pastries.

IrelandThere was very little I didn't like but if I had to think of something, I would love a bar down the length of the pool. Being a non swimmer it would be a big help.
We loved this hotel. The staff were so welcoming and friendly. The choice of food at breakfast is amazing. Delicious range including loads of fresh fruit. Very clean and comfortable. It was close everything. We would love to visit again.

United KingdomThe pool is heated but this time of year(February) the temperature of the water is OK for swimming but not for relaxing in. We didn't choose here solely for the pool so weren't really an issue to us.
Plenty of choices for breakfast. The cooked stuff was cold as its buffet style but it still tasted OK 👍
