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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

It is an amazing place to stay, in the heart of the historic center in the Arcos de la Frontera, just few meters away from the main attraction - Basílica de Santa María. Top experience, the most welcoming host in Spain. Top aesthetics place to spend the nights. The breakfast is hand made!

This is why you travel- these hosts have poured their hearts out renovating a beautiful old building and giving it new life with fabulous touches. The breakfast was all hand made and delicious. There’s a hotel discount at the main parking structure if you get the ticket stamped at the hotel. Massimo even gave us a wonderful recommendation for ice cream in Cadiz our next stop. Just book this place and enjoy browsing the art and the genuine hospitality. It’s less than a 5 minute walk from everything you want to see in the town. Highest marks.

We had a delightful stay at Botánico Casa Rural. Our hosts, Sergio and Massimo, made us feel right at home and were available to answer any questions we had. The accommodation is well located, beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. Quality toiletries were a nice touch. We opted for breakfast (€10 pp), which was excellent - local and/or homemade bread, preserves, sweets, cheese, ham, fruit & yogurt, with orange juice and coffee. A paid underground parking garage is a 10 minute walk away and there are a several good dinner options within a block or two. Highly recommend staying here for a visit to Arcos de la Frontera!

Beautiful house with carefully curated restoration, art and - of course- the beautiful plants! The terrace was beautiful, with lovely views including the castillo. Massimo and Sergio were superb hosts - incredibly thoughtful and charming. They rescued us when we had no dinner booking for New Year’s Eve. Massimo’s fresh baked bread and pastries set us up for the day’s explorations. Amazing place and hosts.

Beautifully renovated 14 th century building in an excellent location. Mossimo and Sergio did a most excellent job of renovating and decorating this beautiful old property. We had a terrific breakfast prepared by Mossimo that greatly contributed to our great stay at the Botanico Rural. Mossimo was the best host you could ever ask for. My brother forget his passport in his room and didn’t realize until we were 2 hours away. Mossimo arranged to have it sent to our next location so my brother could have it the next day. He was amazing!!! I highly recommend Botanico Rural. It is an amazing property with an amazing host!!!

Massimo was the most gracious host that really cared about me while I was riding my bike through the August heat, welcomed me with a big jug of cold water and provided a safe space to store my bicycle. He also made sure I could leave early the next morning to avoid the midday heat. The property is beautifully renovated and right in the heart of Arcos de la Frontera. You leave the doorstep and are in the middle of everything. Just beautiful!

Everything! Botánico casa Rural was a perfect stay. The house itself has been newly remodeled, blending tasteful contemporary changes with its historic architecture. Our room was a delightful example of this lovely architectural change. It was spacious and bright, with a very comfortable bed, good storage space, beautiful bathroom with excellent shower. The rooftop terrace was a sunny, comfortable place to hang out and enjoy a good view of Arcos. Our host, Massimo, was very warm, caring and helpful. The location in the old town was great.
