How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

I think the staff were great in the restaurant and bar areas, but could have been a little less rigid on reception... just not as friendly. No fitness centre was a shame.
Location was great away from the hustle and bustle, easy parking under the building, great facilities and the staff were very professional.

We had the breakfast on our last day and was alright (I was happy I didn't pay for it at the beginning). The pastries wasn't that fresh, neither juices or coffee, not sure if because we were down "early" in off peak season (around 9.30am). We found a coffee shop the day before on the next street, which has seats outside and serves lovely coffee, fresh pastries and sandwiches, that might have increased expectations on hotel breakfast.
The staff was very friendly, including the bar staff. The rooms were quite modern and refreshed. The location was great if you want peace and quiet, with 5 min walk to the beach. If you want to be around the busy Old Town, it's a 30 min walk, buses across the road of the hotel takes about 10-20 minutes to get there. I had booked a double bedroom and requested a double bed, however we arrived to a room with two twin beds joint together. As I was travelling with my husband to celebrate our anniversary, I asked at reception if there was any actual double room available (nothing worse than falling/being stuck between 2 beds) and they found one which we only had to wait to be cleaned. The second room was a smaller than the first, but suited us. I would stay there again.

Heat comes out either hot only or cold only for ventilation depending on the season. so we turned the climate control off and had to open windows, room faced the street so was difficult to sleep with outside noise.
They did the best set up for my dog and were very accommodating for pets. Room was very lush and comfortable to stay in. Service in restaurant and bar also impeccable. Very helpful reception staff

Our room was not made up even after we left a “please make up room” on the door. They only came back at 3pm to ask for the rooms to be made up which is too late.
Very clean, great beds, very welcoming to out little dog and had bowls and a play toy in the room for her 👍🏻
