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 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):
- 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.).

Verified reviewThe staff were incredibly helpful and kind. When booking i accidentally entered the wrong date but when I arrived a day early they very kindly offered us a room at no extra charge. Whilst a bit older, the rooms were comfortable and clean with excellent air conditioning. Breakfast was simple but tasty. Location was close enough to key sites but still calm and free from the bustle.
Nothing...

Verified reviewThe size of the room was great, much better than last year, the staff and the breakfast were great. I had a very very early breakfast as I had to travel to catch a ferry this was no problem to the staff
The air conditioning stopped working. There needs to be a bell in the garage after getting locked in during a previous stay - it made me nervous to be in there and it needs a light. An armchair in the room would really help to provide that extra level of comfort but it is a great hotel.

Verified reviewFantastic family-run Hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Extremely clean rooms and public area. Breakfast is good value - fresh croissants and bread. Hotel was very quiet and located south of the town, within short walking distance of both shops and attractions. Also handy on the south side for the funicular. Rooms are basic, functional but very comfortable, especially the beds. Would definitely stay here again if I need to visit.
nothing.

Verified reviewReception staff were friendly
Beds! These were an absolute disgrace in room 434. 2 single beds stuck together with one lower to ground to the other and the higher one squeaked every time I turned. Hardly slept a wink. Shower curtain would have been a bonus. Bathroom floor completely wet when I stepped out of shower. Wine menu could be improved.

There is not airco! It was 35 degrees. I never expect a 3⭐️ hotel without airco. The first night we slept with only one ventilator. We were four people at the room. Then I asked for one more ventilator and they gave it to us. Breakfast is veryyyy petit.

The room has no fridge, just basic furniture. It was very hot outside so we couldn't enjoy some cold water.

Verified reviewGood sized hotel with secure parking. 10 mins walk to centre of town. Staff were welcoming. Good value for money.
Looked to be popular with groups visiting Lourdes for the religious sites. Which is understandable.
