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 KingdomThe phone did not work. I reported it and it was not fixed during the whole 5 days stay. I had to use my phone each time there was an issue. The air conditioner did not work properly either. They did not cater for vegans at the buffet. I had to speak to the chef to ask for something to be prepared after a few days of noticing there wasn't much done for vegans. Some chefs made an effort and others didn't. The ones that didn't make an effort were the chefs at Pisces restaurant. With regards to the room, we seem to get bitten everything we slept in the bed

JamaicaDefinitely the fact that the hotel DOES NOT enforce the no smoking rule. All the areas where there were no smoking signs, such as the pool areas, the balcony outside the lobby where entertainment was held; I ended up having to go over to people to ask them to put out their cigars because it was affecting my breathing and worst my sister ended up suffering from tightening of her chest and at one point had to go in crouching position to open up her chest to breathe. Despite speaking to several staff to see if someone could address the issue, up to the point of leaving that was not done. This is UNACCEPTABLE and can cost the hotel serious problems. Didn’t like that I requested two rooms with double beds but only one room had it. We did ask the front desk to correct it, but it couldn’t be done until day 2. I didn’t like that there was not adequate parking, I had to drive a bit of the way from lobby entrance and went up a slope area to park, then walked back down to the lobby to check in. I think the hotel need to identify an area and build a proper parking area. Needed more variety of fruits in buffet area.
The grounds: pool, beach, property beautiful. Staff all around very helpful, spa treatment good, room, food, entertainment not too bad. Loved that there were quiet areas.

JamaicaThe exchange rate situation- my cousin bought a drink and was given an exchange rate of 150:1 however, on day 2 at the same bar, but with a different staff he was told 155:1 for the same drink. I work in banking, US rates dont move by $4 overnight...therefore, you need to decide what rate will be used and ensure all staff is aware
I loved the helpfulness of the staff and i appreciated the fact that they called twice to check if i was ok while in my room. I also noticed the politeness of all staff and; whether they were on shift or not they behaved professional. Special mention to the staff member that made my omlette - Marie/Marcia, cant quite remember her name,but she was amazing and; herself and Shanica (a server) made my breakfast experience memorable on 2 days. Shanica went the extra mile to assist my cousin who had a hangover from the night before.
