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 was extremely kind and helpful. It made the stay very pleasant. Many thanks for your warm hospitality. The hotel looks like recently renovated, the beds were comfortable, AC worked well. The hotel is situated close to a busy party area, but it’s not a problem as the closed windows protect from the outside noise. Breakfasts were delicious and everyday there was a slight variation in the food offered and that was a great idea.
Everything was great, but utensils for hanging towels would help :)

Verified reviewThe hotel is completely new and comfortably equipped. The climates in the rooms are extremely good. The location of the facility is central in St. Julians and close to bus stops. Breakfast was also ok, not too much choice, but quite decent. All the hotel staff were very friendly and accommodating. Pool on the roof is very very nice, and the coctails too.
Not enough shower gel for personal hygiene in the toilet. Every day you get two extremely small shower gels that you can't shower with, so I had to often ask for extra at the reception, which I got. Considering the price, this is a big minus. The last day we had an early flight and had to leave the hotel before breakfast time, when asked if they could provide us with a takeaway (lunch box od sandwich) instead of breakfast (which was included in the price) unfortunately they replied that they were not able to do that. If you want to relax I don't recommend this Hotel because the hotel is full of young people who party until the morning hours and are very noisy (but considering that I chose St. Julians which is known for parties it didn't bother me that much this time).
Dear Igor, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us in such detail. Regarding the shower gel, we understand your concerns. Our housekeeping team provides a standard set of toiletries daily, but we’re always happy to provide additional items upon request, as we did during your stay. That said, we’ll certainly take your feedback into consideration to improve the guest experience further. We also apologize for not being able to provide a takeaway breakfast on your departure day. At present, this is not a service we offer, but your suggestion is valuable and has been passed along to management as we continue to evaluate ways to better serve guests with early flights. As for the noise, we take such complaints very seriously and are doing our utmost to maintain a peaceful and relaxing environment for all our guests. Our hotel has strict policies regarding noise, clearly stated in the registration form signed at check-in. Whenever we receive a noise-related complaint, we act immediately to resolve the issue, as the comfort and rest of our guests is a top priority. Thank you once again for your feedback — both positive and constructive. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future. Warm regards, Front Desk Manager

Verified reviewI had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was very nice and the bed was extremely comfortable. The rooftop pool was beautiful and a perfect place to relax. A special thanks goes to Muhammad, who was exceptionally helpful and always went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect – his outstanding service truly made my stay memorable. Another plus is that there’s a supermarket nearby, which was very convenient. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel!

Verified reviewHotel was lovely and clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful upon arrival full of advice for our stay and where to go. About 20 mins after we checked in we had a complimentary bottle of Prosecco delivered to the room which was a lovely touch and a the perfect way to start our holiday. Could not fault the cleanliness of the hotel and location was a 5 min walk to Spinola bay which was full of restraunts and bars. We couldn’t hear any noise from outside which was great for us as we weren’t staying there for the nightlife in St Julian’s but to enjoy the restaurants and bars. Bed was comfy and aircon was fantastic and easy to use. Wardrobe came with hangers and had a fridge with two bottles of water in when we arrived. Would fully recommend this hotel to anybody wanting to stay in the area!
I was a disappointed with the balcony. I paid extra for a sea view as a suprise for my partner and in the photos advertised by the hotel the balcony’s look like they have two chairs on and are sizable. The image of the sea view room however only shows the view from the inside and so you cannot see the size of the balcony which is a little misleading. Upon arrival we found the balcony to be extremely small and there was no room for any chairs on it. If I had known this I wouldn’t have paid extra for a sea view because as lovely as the view was we wanted to sit out on the balcony. For the first few days we were also given fresh towels each day and then for the last 4 days we were left with the same towels which was a bit odd when we had been receiving clean towels at the start of the week. Pool area was small so if you’re planning on using it for a few hours in the afternoon you may have to wait for a sunbed but the area was clean. Tiny things would be hand soap on a pump would be better than a bar of soap. And a socket next to the mirror in the room or swapping the mirror and the luggage rack round so you had the plug socket near the mirror would be helpful. But overall a lovely hotel with the most helpful of staff.
Dear Jessica , Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful review — we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay, from the cleanliness and comfort of the room to the peaceful atmosphere and our friendly team. It’s wonderful to know that the Prosecco surprise helped set the tone for a great holiday, and we’re so pleased you found our location convenient and quiet. We also genuinely appreciate your honest feedback regarding the sea view balcony. We understand how important those special touches can be, especially when planned as a surprise, and we’re sorry the size of the balcony didn’t meet your expectations. We'll review how we present those room details online to ensure better clarity for future guests. As for the towels and in-room details like the soap and plug socket placement — thank you for pointing those out. We’ll certainly pass your comments on to the relevant teams as we’re always looking to improve the little things that make a big difference. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we’d love the opportunity to welcome you back again in the future! Warmest regards, Front Desk Manager Aste Hotel

Verified reviewWas a bit sceptical as I couldnt find any images on Google apart from animated ones..But this hotel is newly built. We were served by Mohammad who really went out of his way to ensure I had a comfortable stay throughout the 6 day trip. Facilities are clean, rooms are spacious, location is great, within 10 minutes walk of most bus stops and restaurants and general shops. It is right near the strip aswell for those who like to party.
Breakfast was a bit small, boring, and costs alot.
Dear James, A special thanks from me, Mohammad, for your kind words and for choosing to stay with us. It was a pleasure to assist you throughout your trip and help make your stay comfortable. I also appreciate your honest feedback about the breakfast. We are always looking for ways to improve, and your comments will be shared with the team to enhance the experience for future guests.

Verified reviewThe hotel is new, with everything working perfectly. My room was spacious and well-appointed, and the breakfast offered a good variety and quality. I originally booked for two nights but ended up extending my stay twice. The manager was very helpful in arranging for me to remain in the same room, even though the hotel was nearly full. The location is close to Paceville’s nightlife, yet far enough away to avoid any disturbance from the noise. The room also seemed well soundproofed, and I slept very well.
Dear Leonardo, Thank you for your kind words! I'm very glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, from the spacious room and breakfast variety to our peaceful yet central location. It was my pleasure to help arrange your extended stay, and I’m happy we could keep you in the same room despite high occupancy. We hope to welcome you back to Aste Hotel in the future!

Verified reviewFrom the moment we walked in, everything was perfect – the interior looked like something straight out of a design magazine, with every detail carefully thought out. The lighting, sculptures, textures, the lounge area… everything radiates elegance and calm. Even the smallest elements, like the matte black vases on the marble table, show how much attention was paid to aesthetics. The rooms are quiet, comfortable, and modern – honestly, it was hard to leave them. But what truly makes this hotel special is Muhammad Said. If I could give a sixth star – I would give it to him alone. This man is the embodiment of professionalism, charm, and genuine kindness. He’s not just an employee – he is the face of this hotel. Its heart and soul. His approach to guests isn’t “by the book” – it comes straight from the heart. Every conversation with him feels like talking to someone you’ve known for years, while still feeling the highest level of respect, service, and elegance. Thanks to him, this luxurious haven wasn’t just a place to sleep – it was a place that truly touched me.
Reading your review truly moved me—thank you so much for taking the time to share such thoughtful and generous words. It means more than I can express to know that you not only enjoyed the design and atmosphere of the hotel, but that my presence made a meaningful difference in your stay. I always strive to treat every guest with genuine warmth and sincerity, so knowing that came through so clearly is incredibly rewarding. Your kindness, attention to detail, and appreciation have genuinely touched me. Guests like you are what make this work so fulfilling. I sincerely hope to welcome you back again—it would be a true pleasure. Please if decide to come to us again, I want to know beforehand so I can welcome you a special welcome.
