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.).

They were very flexible with us because we arrived earlier, but we were able to leave our luggage at the reception. The accommodation is really a 5-minute walk from the Dom Luis I bridge. Our room was comfortable for two people. We were absolutely delighted with the breakfast, the staff was so kind.

United StatesWe caught an early flight so it was too early for the scheduled breakfast. Instead, we were left with easy to travel breakfast items in the room the night before so that we could still have breakfast in the morning. The Sir who checked us in was waiting for us even though we were slightly early. He was exceptionally pleasant and gave a restaurant suggestion that was decidedly the best meal of our 2 week tour of Portugal and Amsterdam. He also booked our transit to the airport and communication was top notch from start to finish. Also to note, the room was very clean and smelled fresh, and waiting for us was each a glass of wine and a chocolate.

The staff is very friendly, and breakfast excellent. Location is great too. Also very nice that some water, port and a chocolate were provided in the room. Good price/quality balance.

GermanyA small hotel located perfectly for visiting all the Port-wine cellars in Villa Nova de Gaja and also for Porto old town. The central station in Porto is just a 25 minute walk away. At the hotel we had a very warm welcome, the staff is great and the breakfast very nice and cosy. The rooms provide more than enough space to stay a week and everything is nice and clean. The hotel is located a couple hundred meters away form the busy main road so it is nicely silent most of the time especially over night. HIGHLY recommend!!!

The location is perfect close to the bus station. The house was kind and able to accommodate us in the requested room that we liked. The lady preparing breakfast got out of her to make us an early breakfast because we’re leaving early the following day.

United Kingdomno issues. everything resolved within minutes by Antonio or Sara.
Portugese people are so friendly and helpful. our hosts in a hotel were no exception. Thank you Antonio and Sara for all your hospitality. Hotel location is the best for visiting Porto, 5 min walk to Luis 1 bridge, Cathedral 15 min and Livralia Lello 25 min. Every evening people were watching sunset over river so hotel location was great to attend. The hotel is rather small but feels like home, clean, with all comfortable facilities, bed and spacious shower. Very good breakfast in the morning prepared by Sara. Would recommend to everybody for any length of stay. Thanks again

ChinaThe soundproofing of the room is not good. l can hear it clearly when other guests walking or talking outside our door, which influence my sleeping a lot.
Close to the subway station and train station, transportation is very convenient! It is also very close to the main scenic spots in Porto. The room facilities are complete and useful. The owner was very polite and friendly, the breakfast was great！
