Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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...).

A special shoutout to Joy & Lynn who was absolutely amazing! They went above and beyond to help us with everything we needed, from local recommendations to making sure we had everything for a smooth stay. Their kindness and professionalism made our visit even more memorable. Highly recommend this hotel!

United Kingdom6 of our group stayed at J boutique and we were all so happy with our stay. The rooms were so nice and clean, with a bunk bed- the bottom bunk was nearly the size of a small double bed, so me and my partner shared the bottom bunk and used the top for storage! The staff were very attentive and the security guard was always very kind and made us feel safe at the property! The en suite in the room was really nice and the water pressure was great. The filtered water on each floor was a great touch. The location was absolutely perfect and we would not hesitate to stay again!

PolandOur rooms lacked windows and were tiny so can get a bit claustrophobic (don't know about other rooms)
slept there only one night and it was okl. The bed was comfy, the water was hot so I am happy about our stay. We would recommend the hotel for all of the party people as it can get a bit noisy but to be honest I didn't care.

SpainVery friendly the people who work there. We were able to leave the luggage before the check-in and start our day. Super nice they even brought upstairs our stuff when we got into the room later in the day. Everything was super clean and as state on the pictures. There is air conditioning, showers working well. Highly recommended. It’s also very close to the port and the area where is restaurants and leisure.

United StatesI saw a centipede in the bathroom but the staff are sent pest control . They took care of the problem and we appreciate the fruit bowl they gave us the next day. It was such a sweet gesture. And they cleaned and changed all the bed sheets. We were so pleased and happy ♥️

IrelandRoom was quite small but had everything you need. The power cut out about 5 times as we were going to sleep (didn’t happen to us the rest of our time in El Nido in different hotels). Not a big deal but the back up light that came on is so bright it made it hard to try and sleep so we had to wait until it seemed like the power had stabilised. No lift available
Room was very clean and bathroom was lovely. A quieter location but still very handy.

United KingdomDefinitely felt on the pricey side compared to other places in the Philippines we stayed, but think that’s the case with El Nido in general!
The staff here were incredibly friendly, more than happy to help when we needed to book onward travel. The location is also perfect, near to the centre but far enough that it’s not super noisy at night

United KingdomThe noise unfortunately carries in the hotel, although we couldn’t hear other guests in their rooms anytime anyone was in the hallway or stairs it was very loud and woke us up at times.
The staff were amazing, so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We booked everything through them - scooter rental, boat trips and transfers. They really were excellent and always ready to greet you with a smile. Good location to be just outside the main area of El Nido, so quieter at night, but very easy to walk into the town.

PhilippinesI believe there wasnt anything I didnt like. If there was flaws, all the positives outweigh it.
The staff was absolutely friendly and helpful. Lynn, Joy and another lady whom I never got the name that texted me that the room was ready were awesome and made you feel like friends/family. When we had arrived to the place they had already brought our bags up to the room. They were very professional and polite and they all greeted you with a great smile. The communication is easy via whatsapp if anything is needed. The staff will organize things for you if needed such as a boat tour and scooter rental at a great price as long as their is availibility. Lynn came up to our room about 2 times to let us know about a bike rental upgrade that became available after it wasn't available at the time of asking. The place is clean and the location is great. The location is one of the highlights. Its right in the middle from lio beach to vanilla beach. Just a 5 to 10 minute walk straight down to the main strip on c. Hama for restaurants, shopping, partying, live music and gambling. Theres a grocery store 1-2 minutes down the road and if you go the opposite way from c.hama theres a ton of shopping boutiques there about a 5 minute walk. It was a very stress free time. Would highly recommend this place to anyone. I plan to come back to this place when I visit again. - Julius N

The lady on reception was extremely kind and was very helpful during our stay. She helped us to book the tours that we wanted to do and transfers to our next location. And was always very welcoming when we came into the lobby.
