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.).

SwitzerlandIt's hard and dangerous to get there by car. So be careful full if you are not used to driving in high inclinations.
The staff was super nice and accomodating. We got the top floor and it was an excellent experience. Specially for a couple. They let us park right in front of the hotel

United StatesAs it's in an old building (though greatly renovated), it is missing elevator, so if you are on one of the top floors you will have to climb. Also unusual the clear shower in the room. So if you travel with family, it may be a challenge
Great hotel in a historical part of Coimbra. Very nice interior, a bit reminding fantom of the opera. Very nice, helpful and polite staff. Highly recommend.

PortugalIn our room there wasn’t much space for our clothing. No cupboards and only one set of hooks for coats and bathrobes. We only stayed one night with hand luggage but for more days and more clothes extra space would be nice. Also no space to put toiletries in the bathroom. The pillows had no support. The table was cute but very small for the amazing breakfast in the room. Overall very happy but these would be some points to improve.
Great location, stunning views, comfortable bed and a jacuzzi! The staff was incredible friendly and we felt truly spoiled. The welcome drink was amazing and the breakfast was just wonderful! We will gladly come back!

CanadaNo dinning table. Even a small one will do.
It is a whimsical hotel, designed like a palazzo in Venice. Staff is great, very helpful. Breakfast is delivered to your room. View from our room was magnificent, overlooking part of the city from a bird view point. Location is close by to Old University, which is a must see in Coimbra, on the top of the old town . Driving there is a lot of fun, particularly for north Americans. Narrow, steep, cobbled streets. Don't come with a big SUV, because you will have hard time to find a parking spot.

We paid for the upgraded room and it was incredible! The hot tub was amazing, the view was incredible and the service was above exceptional! The breakfast was lovely and overall it was such an amazing experience that we will definitely be back! For those wondering about parking; yes it is difficult to find, however, there is a parking garage down the road.

Wonderful place. The woman at the the front desk was super nice and helpful, she even brought me drinks and cake because I was checking in on my birthday. I should have married her and stayed there.

Our room had the real 'wow' factor - a jacuzzi, a massive comfortable bed, lots of gold and glitz and shininess - very different from the places we normally stay in!

I was given a room upgrade so that I had a balcony with an ocean view. I was impressed with the strength of the door so security was never an issue. The staff was pleasant and allowed me to leave my backpack at the front desk while I hiked up to the lighthouse.

CanadaWow! What a fantastically fun hotel! The hotel is in a series of small eighteenth century houses along the ancient fortified wall. They appear to all be different and the designers have adapted the space available, making each room unique. Our room was amazing, a quirky 3 storey layout with a jacuzzi on the lowest level, a tiny sitting area in the middle and a cozy, low ceilinged bedroom up top. The rooms are all small, as they would be in what I imagine was a modest home 300 years ago. But the space is used so cleverly and the decor has such whimsy that it just delights! It is equipped with lots of plugs, 2 TVs, oodles of usb ports and very fancy amenities. There is no central eating area, so the staff bring everything to your room. They were amazingly sweet about it, even though, when we visited, it meant bringing breakfast and complementary drinks to us in the rain. The hotel may not suit those who want a standardized prefab hotel experience, but if you want something singular, this place is perfect. We loved it and it will stay in our memories.

United KingdomThere was no where to hang or put luggage or clothes. All our clothes had to be set on the floor. Fine for 1-2 nights but after 3 nights it gets kind of old. The bathroom literally did not have a place to set a toothbrush. I should have noticed this on the pictures but I didn’t. So it’s kind of my bad
On a scale of 1-10 location was an 11. Super nice staff. I liked that they kept complimentary coffee and beer in fridge. Our room had a sweet view. Breakfast was delivered each morning to our room.
