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.).

SerbiaLocation is perfect for view, for peace, but since any store and restaurants are pretty away from hotel you will need car and patiece because of traffic.
I have never seen such service. From guys who park the car to cleaning ladies who even wash my swimming suit. Swimming pool is so clean like all hotel although it looks like it needs some update

AustraliaIm lucky to have travelled a lot, and this was the best hotel experience I have ever had! Firstly the Hotel itself is stunning. The staff are absolutely unbelievable. Facilities and rooms are top-notch. The spa is quite possibly the nicest I've been too. They provide a shuttle to and from town, so nothing to worry about regarding distance to the town centre. It was our honeymoon and they arranged the most beautiful setting in our room it was absolute class. Every encounter with a staff member across all areas was first class. Cannot recommend this hotel any higher.

AzerbaijanThe rooms are beginning to show their age and could benefit from some slight refurbishment.
The staff were genuinely friendly, the concierge team went out of their way to assist, and the rooms were clean and fresh. The pool and spa facilities were also top-notch and made for a truly relaxing stay.

Amazing stay, we’ll definitely be back! The staff at the Bristol Grand Hotel were absolutely amazing, super friendly, helpful, and welcoming from the first moment. The rooms were beautiful, spacious, and had an incredible view that we couldn’t get enough of. Breakfast was great, lots of options, everything fresh and tasty. Everyone we met was kind and made us feel right at home. We had a fantastic time and would love to come back again. Highly recommend!

Hotel Bristol is glorious! The hotel itself is stunningly beautiful and our room and an amazing view over the bay. The pool is luxurious. They are incredibly well staffed and the staff are super helpful. There is a shuttle bus into town but it is also a very pleasant walk. Definitely one of my favorite hotels in Italy.

United KingdomSlightly expensive drinks, but what you expect from 5 start hotel.
Hotel is in a great location, with a fantastic rooftop restaurant. Staff were all super friendly and the concierge was very helpful. Free shuttle into Rapallo was great. Amazing spa with great facilities, we both had a massage and this was expensive but well worth the money. Outdoor pool was well maintained, easy to access sun loungers and pool bar. We also had a steak on the special menu one night this was fantastic and also tried the tasting on the rooftop one evening. This food was a little different but a fantastic experience non the less

FranceAll this did not come cheap!
Location was great with easy access to Portofino and Cinque Terre. It is also facing south with sun on the pool most of the day. Sea view was great. Cleanliness of the facilities and the bedrooms was outstanding. Breakfast was a feast. We got bespoke advice from the concierge to visit Portofino and Cinque Terre: we were able to avoid most of the crowds while walking on not so known trails with breathtaking views.

LatviaThis hotel exceeded all expectations. The bed and pillows were exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a restful sleep. Breakfast was a true gourmet experience, offering an exquisite selection and thoughtfully catering to guests with lactose, egg, and gluten intolerances. The interior design was both elegant and contemporary, creating a refined yet welcoming atmosphere. The outdoor pool area was beautifully designed, offering a serene and luxurious environment. The spa was spacious, featuring a variety of saunas and relaxation zones, and the massage service was of the highest quality. Dinner was equally impressive, providing an exclusive and memorable culinary experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking comfort, style, and exceptional service.
