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 reviewWonderful place, in nearest walking distance to the beach , fancy restaurants and boutiques. Very friendly and helpful staff, beautiful garden and superb lobby, feeling like in a private home, but too porly furnished guest rooms.
A fireplace with a nice painting over it , but much too poor furnishing of the room( a Suite!) like in a low cost student appartement , with just a kind of low futon bed and a low sofa out of form on which you could not seat, no table or chairs to sit at.

Verified reviewFirst time visiting Jose Ignacio and this place was wonderful. We came at the end of November so it was warm during the day and a little chilly at night. The hotel had a big fire place in the common living room area that made it so cozy. I loved the different spaces outside of the rooms. The breakfast was excellent. The space was beautiful. They had bikes and golf carts to use while we were there to explore the rest of the area. I would recommend this place if you want a quiet beautiful stay near the beach.

Verified reviewWhat a fabulous stay. This has catapulted up to near the top of our favourite hotels. Staff were superb; the room was comfortable; breakfast was lovely; and we particularly enjoyed taking a little golf cart to drive around the town. Super relaxing, very stylish. Note however that we visited during fabulous weather but before the Dec/Jan crowds arrive. The town was empty, as was the hotel, and we relished the tranquility. It would be a completely different (and perhaps just as good) experience during the crazy peak in Summer.
There is very little we would change. Jose Ignacio is quite a tedious drive up from Montevideo, but that contributes to the remoteness and exclusivity of the town. We would certainly come back.

Verified reviewLocation is perfect, great views from sunset and pretty close to the beach (just crossing the street). The pool is spectacular and continental breakfast is outstanding with good quality of the products. It also counts with many common areas well designed and comfortable.
