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.).

NorwayThe hotel could have been located more closely to Lake Victoria. Since we left very early in the morning for our flight, we would have appreciated some kind of breakfast package to go.

United StatesThe only negative is the location. It's far from Entebbe town and so if you want to do anything and you don't have a car, you need to book one which is quite expensive and prohibitive.
The Entebbe Palm is a little gem. The compound is well kept with a tiny pool and a restaurant that serves Thai food. The rooms are clean and spacious. The staff are extremely helpful and really make the expectations of staying there feel effortless.

NetherlandsStaff is sometimes very shy. We had to ask to clean the pool, so our kids could swim. But after we asked they kept it very well.
The hotel has a lovely garden with lots of birds and tropical plants. It is situated in a quiet neighborhood in Entebbe. Staff is very helpful. Breakfast is a la carte. Rooms were very clean. Towels available at the pool.

IcelandThe breakfast is sometimes a little bit sparse.
This is the third time we stay at Entebbe Palm Hotel, obviously it means we are very happy with it. The hotel is strategically located in Entebbe, the family room is perfect for our small family and very reasonably priced, the beautiful garden has a really nice atmosphere and the food, especially the Thai dishes, never lets you down. The massage service is the icing on the cake. We will definitely visit again as this is a perfect little weekend getaway place from Kampala.

RomaniaMisleading room description. We have chosen a room with "a terrace with garden views" and "pool view". There was no terrace at all ( "sorry, rooms with terrace are not available anymore") and the "view" was to the parking lot, while we had to round the building and cross a courtyard to get to the pool. No cleaning/refreshing in the room during our stay of 2 nights. Value for the money was still ok, but not what we expected when doing the booking.
Good location and very supportive personnel, at the reception and at the restaurant. Spacious rooms.

I am vegetarian and asked for fried tomatoes & toast. She brought 1 slice of tomato!! Compare that with people scoffing sausages and bacon!!! My husband got the smallest portion of baked beans!
