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 StatesThe staff were very welcoming and helped us navigate Lisbon, suggested sites, gave us directions and a map, and made a dinner reservation for us. The extras in the room were fantastic. Breakfast was delicious. The nearest trolley stop was just a few hundred feet away, and the metro was a 10 minutes (or less) walk downhill.

United StatesWe were traveling celebrating our 20 year anniversary in Lisbon. We spent 5 wonderful days here. The cleanliness of the hotel is noteworthy and by being a small property they are able to ensure personalized attention to each guest. Fizz and Samantha's attentiveness in serving a delicious breakfast every morning, Pedro and Alfonso guiding us to restaurants, and shopping areas, as well in assisting us with making last minute reservations to some great restaurants made our stay truly special. The Alfama location was perfect despite bustling crowds. The staff were delightful and helpful, contributing to our overall enjoyment. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate us when checking out very early (4am) for an early flight that they even had a breakfast box waiting to take with us, which was beyond thoughtful. We highly recommend booking this hotel. It's truly worth it, and we would love to return. A big thank you to all the staff for making our anniversary trip so memorable. - A & C

All 4 requirements for an excellent stay were met: the people aka were outstanding, great location, wonderful room and a very good breakfast. Alfama is a must for any visit to Lisboa as the feel on the streets is completely different that the Rossio District.

What stood out the most was how welcoming and friendly the staff was. I had asked one of the staff members a question about the train from Lisbon to Porto and then a connecting train to Douro Valley. They were able to sit down with me and provide me with a range of options on how I could get to my intended target. They even offered to call the train company to get further clarification on a question (although I didn't take up that offer.) Their service truly goes above and beyond. My girlfriend and I truly fell in love with the location as well. The streets of Alfama are so beautiful and fun to walk. It's also a perfect blend of having options in the evening (food, fado, gelato, wine) without getting rowdy like some of the other popular neighborhoods, such as Bairro Alto. Noise was never an issue at this location. Our room wasn't the largest, but it was still comfortable, had everything we needed and was extremely clean. Our favorite touch was a welcome cocktail provided on the first day. They give you the basic ingredients and instructions and you're able to craft the drink on your own - it was incredibly tasty. The breakfast spread includes a mix of pastries, breads, meats, cheeses and fruits. If you wanted something larger, there was a menu for omelettes, french toast and others as well. Everything we had tasted fresh and delicious. We spent 5 nights at this location and felt like we were able to get the perfect Lisbon experience from here.

PolandThere was not a single thing!
One of the best places I've ever stayed. Tucked away in one of Alfama's picturesque streets, it offers both comfort and a wonderful atmosphere. The service was fantastic—everyone was so friendly and helpful, making us feel truly welcome. The room was lovely, with a really comfortable bed and a great shower. We were pleasantly surprised by the little sweets and drinks left for us with a note—such a nice touch! Breakfast was perfect. I’d love to come back someday. Thank you for a great stay!

JerseyThere was a good choice of food for breakfast every morning, both hot and cold, some cooked to order. One minor point was on our last morning we needed to be up and off early choosing to have a breakfast as soon as they started serving and whilst there were already a few people in the breakfast room they were still setting up and it was all a bit chaotic.
The Staff are extremely helpful and want you to have the best time. We were offered water and a glass of champagne on arrival. We were shown to our room where they explained how everything worked. They offered a free walking tour and help with any recommendations of where to go or what to see. There was also a complimentary mini bar with local produce and instructions to make a local cocktail The room was extremely clean and comfortable with lots of little extras to make your stay enjoyable. They have thought of everything to make your stay the best it can be. The room was decorated with a traditional way with modern touches.
