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 reviewFriendly staff, beautiful facility
No parking!!!!
Dear Michael, Thank you very much for your high rating and for the kind words regarding our staff, cleanliness, comfort, and central location – we’re truly happy you enjoyed your stay with us! Regarding the parking issue – it is indeed a known challenge during the summer season, when Tiberias is bustling with visitors and demand for parking is very high. That being said, the central location of the hotel, right on the promenade, is a major advantage for our guests – since most attractions, restaurants, beaches, and key sites are all within walking distance – there is no need to use your car at all during your stay. In addition to the public parking lots scattered around the hotel, we also have a special arrangement with a private parking lot, located about a 5-minute walk from the hotel. In cases where guests encounter difficulties finding a parking spot, we’re always happy to assist and direct them there. Had we received a message or question about this during your stay – we would have gladly helped you as well. We would be delighted to host you again – and provide you with a perfect experience in every aspect. Warm regards, Guest Relations Department Shirat Hayam Boutique Hotel, Tiberias 📞 +972-4-6721122 | ✉ shirat.hayam.tiberias@gmail.com

Verified reviewLocation on tayelet lovely
There is no parking, contrary to advertising. We even called and they told us the parking was two minutes away, spots always available in a lot. There was no room in the lot or anywhere nearby. Wound up finding street parking some distance away. Had we known that, we would have not made the reservation.
Dear Mr. Friedland, Thank you very much for choosing to stay with us and for taking the time to share your feedback. We were delighted to read your kind words about the unique historic charm of the hotel and its lovely location along the Tiberias promenade. Regarding the parking – we fully understand your concern. As you stayed during the busy summer month of August, it's important to note that the entire city, and especially the promenade area, experiences significant congestion during this time. That said, our hotel's central location is one of its biggest advantages – as it allows guests to simply park their car upon arrival and explore the city on foot. The hotel is just steps away from the Sea of Galilee, top restaurants, cafes, attractions, and the vibrant promenade – making a car unnecessary during your stay. In addition to the public parking lots surrounding the hotel, we also have an arrangement with a private parking area located about 5 minutes' walk away. If you had contacted us about this issue, we would have been happy to guide you directly to it – as we do for all guests who inquire. We sincerely regret any inconvenience this may have caused and truly hope to have the opportunity to host you again – this time with the full benefit of all the services we can offer. Warm regards, Guest Relations Department Shirat Hayam Boutique Hotel, Tiberias 📞 +972-4-6721122 | ✉ shirat.hayam.tiberias@gmail.com

Verified reviewVery good breakfast. Staff very friendly. Ubicación on front of the lake. A building from 200 years in very good condition. Jacuzzi on the room with hot water is very nice after a long day outside with winter weather.
We found the room a little small.
