Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

DenmarkThere was a pool bar, which seemed it hasn’t been used for some time - it has big potential if maintained well - the pool and surroundings could also use a caring hand.
The location is great - close to the beach - 5 min walk. The staff was extremely helpful. The room was spacious and comfortable. There was a big pool available at the property.

United KingdomPool was a bit cloudy water, but many people using it ok. They re filled it while we were there with fresh water, but it was still cloudy... think they need a filter or something. Two or three days in the week they had afternoon pool party which was very noisy and the room was uninhabitable for us then when we would have liked to nap away from the heat.
Great location. Good rooms, pool.

IndiaThe hotel has not been kept clean. I used to go here before the pandemic but now it's in a very bad shape. The pool water is so murky you can't see the bottom. The hotel room was moist and the floor was sticky making you feel quite unclean. The bathroom was very wet like there was permanent water leakage. The bathroom didn't have a functioning shower or a hand shower. Even the bucket was covered with black mold. The jet spray in the toilet didn't have a holder. It was fallen on the floor. I didn't really want to stay but we came for too far. I was with a senior citizen and a child. I had no option but to continue. I notified the staff, they worked on my complaints but these are basic things. They should have fixed them proactively and not waited for me to have a bad experience. It was really quite horrible. The worst was that this hotel charges you 2% extra for Indian cards and 4% for international cards. This extra fees is called MDR and it is illegal as per RBI to charge the customer this amount. When I brought it up, the clerk asked me to use UPI. I don't think I'll ever stay there again.
I liked the location. It was walking distance to the beach.

United KingdomThe pool was very dirty, along with the changing / shower room which had sick in the sink and down the toilet ! Walls were black and the plug hole didn’t work so all the water built up inside the cubicle! It was filthy. As was the area around the pool, the safe in the room didn’t work either, I wouldn’t book this again or recommend to anyone, we actually didn’t stay the night and moved somewhere else.

United KingdomDid not match the description on booking.com no satellite tv, no safety deposit boxes. fridge very smelly and not clean, fan in bathroom not clean. Place could do with an upgrade shower broken. It certainly did not live up to a luxury description. Staff blamed COVID for things not being right like safety deposit box keys missing etc. Need to change the profile to match reality. I asked for a pick up from the airport which was agreed to but didnt happen.
Staff friendly. Location good. room large and basic cleaning undertaken. Didnt use the pool.
