Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

South AfricaOn the night we arrived , there was no dinner prepared for us, our flight was delayed and i did alert the hotel we will be arriving late but they said kitchen was close and I paid for the dinner. During the stay we requested to borrow and iron, this request took several phone calls to reception and was only brought o the room 2 days later. The mini bar was not being replaced with water and cool drinks daily and we paid for full board during out booking. upon asking the reception. they acknowledged the problem but did not even replace the water or drinks. the room was not cleaned properly, could still feel sand and dirt on the floor after they cleaned.
The bed was comfortable, food was delicious

SerbiaFor people who have only B&B there is no free water in the room, only the ones with half or full board. This is the first time i have ever come across this and i travel extensively. The internet was terrible it did not work most of the time. We asked for a chage of meal ( instead of breakfast to have dinner the previous day) cause we were flying out early. but a lady from Brazil with quiet an attitude said she is a cosultant and its impossible to chage it. However after talking to Christain the FB manager the problem was solved.I asked for someone to come at 5am to assist us with the luggage but was told that the receptionist had forgotten to send them etc. So some of the staff and management could work on their customer service more. Gym bery worn out and dirty
The location is great. Its right on the beach and other hotel and restaurants are close and accessible. There is a popular night club Coccobelo just 300-400 metters away for those who like night life. The buffet is quiet good for Africa. There are two pools and its set in a beautiful scenery. Staff is great especially Chritian FB manager, who was great with fascilitating and understanding tge guests needs. Great customer service on his side as well as Steve (Stefan) from the restaurant.

United KingdomThere are no complaints about the property, however as suggestion it can be improve so much .. es: beach towels are really old , bedsheets can be change at least once during a week stay, atrc…
The property is located in front of a beautiful white beach. The hotel is simple , a good value for the price ( it’s definitely not a 4 stars category with super basic clean rooms). U can go barefoot at the main restaurant ( is on the beach area) and food is fresh and with variety Eve day.

Austria- the prices of the drinks were quite high (4 USD for 1 small beer) but closeby there was a small shop with beer and other liquids - the doors of our room (and I guess all the rooms) are built with a lot of options for ants and other insects to enter the room ... therefore we covered them with tape and it helped
+ the build of the whole resort looked very traditional african and therefore was so beautiful + we only had breakfast but that was directly in the sand and it was fabulous + the staff was very friendly and smiling all the time ... they helped with everything + the infinity pool and the view of the sea when arriving was really incredibly cool + the 2 other pools were also very nice and clean + we needed a doctor because of a propable malaria infection who was very helpful + the option to stay longer after checkout and having a shower next to the reception (including towel) added another USP

ItalyEverything is very slow, but this is aligned with Zanzibar mantra "pole-pole". Usually people come here to relax, so it's ok, but there are situations, for example of you have excursions, when you can't wait 1/2 h (after reminders) just for a plate of fruits and some water. Also, we chosed the mini suite, paying extra money, but unless you're beach front, it doesn't make a huge difference with the normal room. Also, the room was completely dark :/
My Blue is the perfect place for relax. The infinity pool over the sea is paradisiac, the restaurant has a wonderful view on the beach (actually it is on the beach), the staff is so kind, the food is good. I read many reviews saying that the breakfast doesn't offer varierty, but this isn't true, there are so many different foods.

SwitzerlandEveryday race for the beach chairs... some people were reserving beds by putting towels at 6 AM!!! And keeping towels all day on the chairs and not even using it! Or some people were tipping pool boys to reserve beach chairs - the best chairs front row facing the ocean were always reserved for the same people - nor fair! For that reason I would think twice before booking again. When booking via booking.com we didn't know most guests booked cheaper all inclusive packages there, we had breakfast only and at times we felt treated little like a second class. Everyone has to wear plastic bracelet, different colour depending on meal plan....
Loved our Little cottage, so cute, spacious and comfy. Beachfront location, can't get any closer to the ocean! Friendly staff and well maintained gardens. Nice big pool and infinity pool facing the ocean.
