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.).

BrazilThe bathroom doors were light wood, not very sound proof. Bathroom was also tiny. Balcony area of the room could be open (it is pretty much boxed with a small window. Parking was a bit complicated but the staff always willing to help.
Very nice location, very friendly staff, good food. Nice rooms with nice view. Fresh produce at the restaurant (farm to table) and they had good wine. Breakfast was very good.

BelgiumEverything was excellent. The road to the parking of the hotel was very steep and narrow.
We liked everything, especially the dinner in the restaurant. We know it's not possible because of the position of the building, but a little private terrace at the room would have been very nice.

IsraelWe had alot of luggage to take and our room was far and had alot of stairs on the way. But still we loved everything about our stay.
Everything!! Perfect hotel!! We did our last night at Madeira at the hotel and I am sorry we didn't do the whole week there. You sleep inside a vineyard with a view to the Ocean, they grow most of the food in the property, they have an exceptional breakfast and I recommend making a reservation for their dinner as well to the tables outside. When you come to Madeira this is the plase to stay!!

United StatesTo get the beautiful views, the local roads to the place are challenging like many in Madeira. The parking can be similarly challenging. Maybe I just haven’t driven standard in awhile.
Amazing food. As their tag line intimates, they are a food establishment with rooms. The people were all amazing and the views are perfect. The room was up to date and fashionable. Love the bathroom.

LuxembourgThe parking lot was a bit complicated, depending on how well/badly the other guests had parked.
We knew we were going to like the place, but the truth is that we absolutely loved it. The staff is very kind, the rooms had everything we needed, if there was anything missing they would provide it. The views were stunning from any point of the hotel. Breakfast was delicious.

Everything about our stay was exceptional. The staff are very friendly and helpful. If it was not for Melissa at reception we would have been stranded as busses had been cancelled the day we were due to leave. Melissa helped us look up alternatives and for the best prices. She was truly very helpful. The food was fresh, great variety and delicious. We loved our stay and would highly recommend staying here.

BelgiumNone, but you need to be an alert driver to reach the parking lot.
I rarely rate a stay as being perfect. This time the eye for detail in the architecture, staff’s pleasant demeanour, and the quality and presentation of the food was nothing less than exceptional.

AustraliaThis was truly one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed. We got a free upgrade to one of the villas and the view was absolutely breathtaking from our room. We sat in the window seat looking out over the sea for hours. Socalco nature is luxurious but friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is delicious too, the chef and owner cooks personalised menus. I highly recommend coming here if you are staying in Madeira!
