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.).

United StatesHotel Staff wasn't as friendly and welcoming as we have experienced at other Palawan resorts, that said they were professional and kind - so good overall, we have just been spoiled I guess at other places. In addition and unfortunately they didn't provide the transportation arrangements to our island hoping tour like they said they would and we had to scramble to find an alternative option to be sure we arrived to our tour on time.
Most liked the amenities the hotel offered, especially at the beach -- free use of paddle boards was a huge pleasant surprise! The location is great.. near a lot of the nearby restaurants and just a short walk away.

Our recent stay at Seda Lio Hotel in El Nido, Palawan, was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the friendly staff, who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort throughout our visit. The hotel’s location is simply breathtaking, nestled amidst stunning landscapes and just steps away from pristine beaches. Our room was spacious, beautifully designed, and equipped with all the amenities we could ask for. We also enjoyed the delicious meals at the hotel’s restaurant, featuring a wonderful selection of local dishes. The breakfast buffet was particularly impressive, offering a variety of fresh and flavourful options. Overall, our experience at Seda Lio Hotel was exceptional, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in paradise!

United StatesThere was a foul smell in our bathroom, possibly a leak in the toilet? Also, the sheets felt damp and sandy all the time so it was hard to get a good night's sleep.
The breakfast was phenomenal - authentic Filipino food and so many varieties! I have never looked forward to breakfast until this place came along. The pool was great for my kids. The staff - absolutely amazing! Everuone was so nice and welcoming. We loved the lifeguard who created hats for my kids.

United KingdomEverything was amazing. The only thing for me that wasn’t great was the noise in the corridor early morning and late evenings. The corridor makes echo and people would slam door around 12am or 5/6am.
The staff were extremely polite, respectful, genuinely helpful and wanting to provide the best experience for the guests. It didn’t feel like an “obligation” like other places I stayed during this trip. The property is stunning, all the amenities very well maintained, impeccable cleaning and the spa massage was just the best.
