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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

BulgariaThe one thing that could be added is the food for children and some dish-ware for children
Our room was with pool access, and was located near the main restaraunt and general pool side which was convenient because we were with a kid. There is a small playground as well which is nice if your kid is little.

Wowza!!Rixos Premium Saadiyat Island Resort—off the charts amazing! From the moment we stepped foot in the lobby, we felt like royalty. The staff? Super friendly and always ready to go above and beyond to make sure we were having the time of our life. The rooms—pure luxury. The decor was beautiful. The views? Jaw-dropping! Oh, and don’t even get me started on our favourite part. The FOOD!! We ate like a kings every single day—so many delicious options to choose from. And the cherry on top? The beach! Crystal-clear waters and soft white sands. If you’re looking for a top-notch all-inclusive resort experience in the UAE, Rixos Premium Saadiyat Island is where it’s at. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed! Besides the crazy storm that hit, our stay here was absolutely fantastic— even that was an experience.

United KingdomStayed at the property in 2019 feel like the standards have slightly slipped but in general I just think now that the hotel is not value for money,compared to other hotels in this area.
The staff are super helpful. It’s a very well kept hotel nothing is too much trouble.

Saudi ArabiaThese remarks might seem not significant , however we felt like a hotel as premium as Rixos shouldn’t have overlooked them as the expectations increase with the experience. The weather was fairly cold however the water in the pool and kids water park wasn’t temperature controlled. given that kids are more prone to cold, the water at the water park should be warm at all times. We were fairly surprised that the TV inside the rooms are very old and not even smart with very dated cable channels. Other competitors provide end of the line smart TV with pre-installed and logged in entertainments platforms. We asked for an HDMI cable since the room has an HDMI outlet, the hotel doesnt provide that.
Our stay at Rixos has predominantly exceeded our expectations. The staff were great, especially Melikov who ensured we have an amazing first impression by granting us a free upgrade to a suite and lunch when we just missed it. The facilities were superb and suits all ages and the entertainment options are multiple. The food was really good especially at Mermaid & L’Olivo restaurants.
