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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

IsraelThe staff was super nice. We got a free upgrade to a suit. They tended to every issue, the sauna and steam bath were very nice, breakfast was great, restaurant for dinner was amazing with good prices. Water temperature and water pressure might be a bit low for those who like it hot and high pressure. Other than that- perfect!

Everything about this boutique hotel is stunning! Greeting at the front desk, availability of staff, warmness of the hotel and its amenities, offerings.... from drinks, meals, breakfast (which is a separate story of abundance and delicious home made choices), spa and sauna and massage.... My visit was during not typical season, begging of March, with poor weather conditions in Zabljak, of rainy and chilly days - but the hotel with its coziness made up for the weather. Room was spotlessly clean, warm, with comfortable bed.

CroatiaThe breakfast is not what it seems, on the first day we’ve had just 2 different choices where on the second day there was a buffet with lots of choices. A bit hard for the people that can’t eat everything and have restrictions.
The location is amazing, so close to everything important. The staff is great!! The receptionists and the girl doing the massages are a true gem!

SerbiaThe restaurant music is always the same 4 lounge songs.
Great location, close to city centar but far away so that there's no traffic, it's surrounded by trees and has a big parking lot. Its about 30min stroll to the lake, which is great for traveling with a baby. The food is good, they are accommodating for baby food (whatever we asked to be without salt they made for us, fish, eggs, etc). It has an elevator and rooms are spacious.

United KingdomThe food choices were limited for dinner and breakfast which I understand is because they didnt have too many guests at the time and the restaurant had just been recently opened.
The staff were very nice and helpful. They helped organise tours for us and also helped us get back a bag we had forgotten in a cab to the hotel. The hotel was located very close to the Durmitor national park and only a 10 min walk to the city centre. The black lake was also reachable by foot. It was a very nice hotel with a nice sauna/spa as well. We really enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it. In case of any issues the staff were very helpful in resolving them and also gave us free drinks to make up for any delays in sorting the issues.

MontenegroAs everywhere: half a dozen of small simple things that could be fixed easily and at no cost: loose door hinges, leaking shower rose, never been lubricated window handles/mechanisms, shower drain hole needs cleaning at the spa center.
One of the best hotels I ever stayed at. Perfect location, warm accommodations in the winter, sauna, various sizes of rooms to choose from. Unlike most of places in Montenegro, Soa has reasonable check out hours.

United KingdomThe first impression is that the decor and furniture is a bit dated in a 70’s style - but that is a very minor point given all the positives above .
The location being between the centre of town and the black lake was perfect . The facilities- like saunas - were appreciated after a busy day trekking and sightseeing. But the best part was the staff - the two delightful ladies on reception were friendly informative and extremely helpful - but also a big word of thanks to the hotels driver Matteus ,who took us on a Brilliant “ ring of durmitor “ 5 hour jeep tour that we would thoroughly recommend to all staying at the Soa.
