Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

the reception is at the second floor, entrance to the hotel is locked and can be opened only by ringing the reception at all times. not convenient for a hotel of this status. makes it also somewhat cumbersome to call for a taxi.
fantastic location with great view over the cruise terminal, and the seaside promenade. very centrally located at walking distance to all the city's central locations. Rich breakfast and very helpful reception staff.

The pedestrian entrance is very impractical, either a huge, grand stairway, or a small, hidden elevator.

I didn’t like the carpet in the room which on entry looked clean but was actually filthy with stains and not pleasant on the eye, the same with the curtains, BOTH NEED CHANGING At the plaza level there is a mat which is a trip hazard and needs replacing ASAP
The beds and facilities in the room was adequate and usable. Breakfast was nice, with a wide range of eateries to choose from. Overall room and breakfast was good

Pre-stay enquiries were awful and nearly led to me cancelling the trip. Messages were not responded to, and when a response and offer was given, it was never followed up. This needs to be addressed.
Beautifully presented, airy rooms and a fantastic balcony for breakfast. It has the perfect location by the cruise pier (but needs a taxi to get to the cruise terminal). Staff were friendly and helpful, including arranging taxis and storing luggage.

the bar. this was cheating at it’s best. ordered a pinacolada, got a drink that had barley any alcohol. next day I ordered a Manhattan, what I got was a kid’s drink. most probably the bartender is taking the alcohol home. it is a shame for such a hotel. once cheated might be random. twice I see a strategy. would book the same hotel again but never order anything other than a beer. hope that helps some travelers
very clean great location
