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 hotel has a great atmosphere and is in a quiet and beautiful location. The staff are very friendly and helpful. In general it is a relaxing and welcoming place to stay. The snack bar that is open all day is a really nice touch. I also liked that they protect the local cats which are a fixture of the hotel. The check-in and check-out times were flexible and very much appreciated.
The place needs a bit of tlc - the furniture in the room is clean but a bit old.

Verified reviewNice and quiet
We booked a room from Thursday to Saturday, and after spending the entire day at the beach on Friday , we returned around 18:00 only to find that our room hadn’t been cleaned, no fresh towels, no changed sheets, nothing. We were very disappointed by the lack of basic service, especially considering the length of our stay.

Pool was just for speaking feet. The pictures sell something else entirely. They're using the name of a much more exclusive Hotel and putting you in the Orchid on the top row something that is out of much lower level. The floor was cracked
Haim Shalom, I checked your reservation and you booked a standard room, I see that you were upgraded to a villa with a pool so it's hard to see how you were misled. Anyway, thanks for the feedback, we will learn and improve

Verified reviewBest value in Eilat. Problem with the staff but they make efforts and it is not critical. It is in general problem in Israel.
Location. Renovated units of Herbert Samuel are excellent.

Verified reviewFirst and formost - the view and the location were spectacular! Most beautiful sunrise ever! Also, we informed the staff (in booking app) that I am pregnant and wish to have a peacful vacation. When we arrived, Avi the manager took great care of us and gave us the most amazing room.
The dinner was not very vegetarian friendly. Maybe if we have asked the staff they would gave us a vegy meal, but in the main buffet there was no main veg cours.
תודה רבה

The private pool area wasn't clean when we checked in. It took some time to fix it. Also, the location is not right on the beach as it seems
