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 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):
- 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.).

- • Group
- • Double Room
- • Stayed 4 nights
The choice of food was limited in my opinion at breakfast and dinner - and we had to repeatedly warm our food up as it was not kept warm adequately. The A/Cs in standard rooms need to be effective in a warm country
The room we eventually got was an upgrade on the rooms we booked as the A/Cs were not effective - so our standard rooms were no good - the upgraded rooms were more the standard we'll be used to. The service was good in the main but some of the reception staff could be abrupt - maybe a language issue? The concierge was hospitable as was a man at the restaurant who sought to ensure we were satisfied by keeping the service going as long as we were there!

I don’t think it was great value for money. Also it would be necessary to do some capacity building of the personal in the reception. At the moment they were not very service-oriented. Also we could hear the Disco throughout the night in the rooms.
Very central. Easy option as the conference I attended was organized in this hotel.

The beds were really bad. Room 518 bed is broken, and they still kept us inside. The bed quality is very low. They have joined 2 single beds into one with a middle, which keep moving apart. The bedsheets were very brown and no mattress protectors. The bedsheets were light, and as the mattresses moved, the bedsheets came out from the mattress. The toilet had no toilet seats. The shower pressure was really poor. There is no Internet on site even though I had some urgent work to do, I could not do the work due to no Internet on site. We complained, and nothing was done. They really need to update their beds because I now have serious back ache due to the condition of the bed. This is really not fair in customers. Paying huge amount of money and can not have a basic good night sleep.
The buffet breakfast was a good mix of everything

Facilities are not up-to standard for a four star hotel. Toiletries are basic. There was no fridge in the room, and no drinking water was provided. The tap in the bath was out of order. We had to wait for several minutes for hot water to flow.

In the room, problems with shower and it took 2 days before it was fixed. Some of the wall light switches and electrical sockets had fallen off and not been replaced so could not be used, same with the switch to regulate the A/C... Drunk and very persistent people hanging out just outside the entrance in the early morning, harassing hotel clients waiting for their drivers, then hanging on the vehicles that came to pick up guests and without any intervention by the security guard. Not priceworthy
