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.).

United Kingdomnot something i didnt like...but, being european....a kettle or coffee machine in my room would have been nice.
the Perola is a really classy hotel a short drive from Plateau, and the lighthouse. Large rooms, really, really comfortable beds and pillows, minibar that is refilled everyday, and not expensive, but still has room for your own things, should you need it and really powerful shower in the bathroom. The breakfast was really great...tasty range of treats amongst the usual things, nice bread, pastries and little tarts, and you can have it outside overlooking the bay. You can also have dinner there..and the menu is varied and not too expensive, with a good wine list. But...obviously....one of the best things about the Perola is the pool on the roof. after a hot day there is just nothing better than plunging into the cool water, and while small, you can actually swim properly, even if it is only 5 strokes. I really enjoyed my stay in the Perola.

United StatesThe pool water didn't look very clean. It had an obvious oil sheen on top and looked murky. The fridge was mostly filled with mini bar items, so there wasn't much room for your own things unless you took everything out.
The bed was comfortable. The location was good and walkable to Plateau. The rooftop had lots of sunshine. Breakfast had a lot of variety.

CanadaWifi and AC were intermittent during our 3 nights but mostly worked well. It would be helpful if the hotel sold sunscreen.
The staff were friendly and helpful. They were all excellent. The hotel is clean and comfortable. The bed and pillows are comfortable. We had a seaview room with tv, fridge, safe, AC and wifi. The views from the 3rd floor restaurant and 7 the floor pool on the roof were fantastic. Breakfast buffet was good, as was dinner at the hotel. There is an ATM at the entrance and mini mart next door. It is a 10-15 min safe walk to the beaches and other restaurants. Sunscreen only available at the pharmacy which is a 15 min walk up the hill behind the hotel. It was 20-30 min to walk to the plateau or short taxi. The pool is not heated but is refreshing on a hot day. Sun chairs on the roof good.

SwitzerlandWe asked for 2am taxi and the man at the front desk called us at 1.30a to leave because he claimed there was traffic. We ignored him and left at 2am as planned. He was not happy with us but yet there was no traffic at all and the trip to the airport was quick. I think his taxi driver friend just wanted to do something else and get our ride over with earlier.
Comfy hotel. Very nice rooms. Asked for quiet room and received 509 which was very far away from the street which is always loud at night in Praia.

The swimming pool area is small not having many hammocks for sunbathing and the bar was not available. In general the hotel is nice but a little bit expensive for the current status of the facilities

AustriaI have got a room with no view and the room was under the restaurant. So it was very loud in the morning and the afternoon. The airport transfer is very expensive, you pay 15 euros for only 8 minutes.
There is a nice breakfast, you have many choices, good coffee and different fruites. The rooftop pool is very nice. The staff is also very friendly. The restaurant is very classy and the food tasts perfect. The hotel is 20 minutes by foot from the city centre plateau. To the beach with a nice restaurant you need to walk 10 minutes.

SwitzerlandThe rooftop seems nice, but at second glance the furniture is quite used, the cushions are discoloured / torn, the wooden construction could use repairing. The one man (probably the manager as he was dressed differently) in the restaurant was unfriendly to guests and staff alike. The staff themselves were super nice and helped wherever they could! Coffee could be better.
Super friendly and helpful staff! Nice and comfy rooms, clean and pretty modern. Overall, the hotel looked to be in very good condition. Breakfast had a good variety and everything looked fresh.
