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 StatesThe trade off of getting the fantastic views is it can be difficult to get get a taxi. I found the taxi drivers are not particularly fond of driving up the elevation especially when the number of people in your party is three or less. I would say the average price to get anywhere from the Mafolie is about $10 one way, $15 to/from the airport.
The view of the harbor and the island is phenomenal from the Mafolie. Whether it is morning, day or night the overlook makes this one of the best hotels on the island. The complimentary breakfast from the hotel restaurant is way better than I expected. It is a hot to order meal that leaves you satisfied well into the afternoon of you taking in the views and sun on St. Thomas.

United StatesThe tiles on the walkway are uneven, which aren't safe, and it would be nice to have someone take our bags to the rooms since there is no elevator.
The staff was amazing; it felt like I was with family,and the view was priceless. The chef went above and beyond to make sure I had vegan meals. Elaes at the front desk was great; she always made sure that as women, we were safe. When we go out, she always sends a taxi to bring us back to the hotel safely; we really love her. They made my birthday amazing. We will always stay at Mafolie!

Location was unbeatable. They kindly let me work by the pool after checkout. Very accommodating. Views were literally unbelievable.

United Statessome knats in one of our rooms - however, this is the tropics so expect them!
This is a beautiful historic hotel in an incredible location. It does not compare at all with the fancy chain hotels like the Ritz or Westin - has incredible local charm and history!!! You have to appreciate this, not be looking for typical hotel facilities. the pool, bar , dining room and rooms have one of the most beautiful views anywhere in the Caribbean!!! I've been to Santorini, one of the most beautiful Greek islands, and the view here rivals it. It has recently been bought by new owners who are planning upgrades (things like wiring and artwork in the rooms would be appreciated) But the overall experience is fantastic even before upgrades!!! Staff are great!

AustriaWould be nice to have a phone in the room to be able to call the front desk. A shuttle would be a real boon too - expect to pay at least $20 to take a taxi from the airport with two people.
The Mafolie is a beautiful little hotel clinging to the mountain slopes of St. Thomas. My wife and I went here for our honeymoon, and the view simply blew us away. Our room looked right out onto the bay and Charlotte Amalie, and was beyond stunning. As for the room itself, it was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, if a little small. Staff here is friendly and helpful, and the pool is a nice touch. Also of note is the restaurant, which shares the hotel's expansive view of the bay and the Caribbean. The food is expensive, but extremely good - worth the price. A wonderful place for a honeymoon.

United StatesOur check in process was dismal. Traveling with a 94 year old, and anxious to get him settled, it was an empty hotel at arrival and no one answered our calls for assistance. The customer service, once located, was openly hostile and actually yelling at me. I come from a tourism background, and worked in the service industry. This is a cardinal sin for treating guests. It was terribly upsetting and disappointing.
A quaint property, well worn around the edges, but stunning views and a very good restaurant.
