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 KingdomNothing major but the accommodation wasn't well sign posted from the road. A toaster would be a good addition to the breakfast. Otherwise it was a great stay.
The location was beautiful. Waking up in the morning to the mountain views was great. The room was big and spacious, the bed was comfortable and the host was very friendly and made us feel welcome. Breakfast was good too.

CanadaThere is NO Sign to identify the location when your drive by it Nor is there a House number, The photograph in the advertisement is not of something that is visible from the road, so hard to locate . GPS directions are not accurate
Breakfast was very nice, and prepared and offered in a nice room overlooking hills and valley the available free parking is a plus for this area There are two restaurants within walking distance It is a lovely rural setting on the edge of town, lots of birds and farm animals next door.

United KingdomThere wasn't a hairdryer and I would have preferred a duvet (a personal preference) as opposed to blankets and bedspread on the bed. The shower tray filled up with water whilst showering and it was a bit worrying that it might overflow onto the bathroom floor.
Loved the location and views across to the the hills and the distant snow capped mountains. Quinta da Pedra Grande is a very peaceful setting, well maintained and the courtyard has a little seated area and table to sit at and enjoy the outdoors. The continental breakfast was exactly to my taste and presented well. Our host looked after us very well and provided extra pillows on request.

AustriaThe doors. The door to our room would not stay closed if we didn't lock it. Every time someone opened the front door or some amount of wind came through the hallway and our door wasn't locked, it would fly right open. I hope this gets fixed it was the only issue with my stay :)
Absolutely beautiful area to go hiking and enjoy the serenity, it is calm and peaceful and the people are super friendly and helpful. There is not a lot going on in the area but I would highly recommend hiking to Monsanto and enjoying the view. The hotel was not easy to reach without a car (we needed taxi every time) but when you are there the silence and scenery is worth it completely. They have a few adorable animals (small pigs, horse) next to the hotel - which were surprisingly super silent and did also not smell whatsoever. The breakfast was also very good, especially the orange juice.

IsraelI was really stressed out by an automatic message I received while I was on the road, on my way to check-in, announcing that the hotel reception is closing. I telephoned and the manager calmed me down, saying that I could check in when I arrive. I suggest cancelling those automatic messages.

United KingdomThe gardens could do with a few benches or seating of some sort so you can enjoy them. Place is a little lacking character. No staff around most of the day and it would be nice to be able to make a tea or coffee somewhere
Great location just outside Monsanto - you are close enough to walk although it is steep uphill. Good breakfast - lots of choice, good fresh orange juice & superb home grown figs. Pretty gardens but nowhere to sit & enjoy them! Nice big room.

PortugalBedroom supplies were low (no extra pillows, no bathroom glasses). Only one tiny window. Couldn't make the tv work. No wifi in room (though they have a big communal room where it worked).
Spectacular location near a working farm. We hung out with the farm animals and watched the trimming of cork trees. Fantastic breakfast (fruit, cheese, eggs, ham of many types, bread, coffee, tea). Comfortable beds. AC! Just down the hill from Monsanto.

SpainThis area of Portugal is very remote and while there are villages there are no facilities like supermarkets or restaurants (that were open). The breakfast provided was excellent but there was no fridge or even tea making facilities in the room and no opportunity to have a meal in the hotel. This was unfortunate as there was no restaurant open within a 30km radius.
