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.).

RomaniaClean room (cleaning was done daily), good breakfast, nice indoor garden. Our room was ready at arrival (in the morning) and we were grateful for this. After only 3 hours of sleeping in the night before, all we needed was to rest.

SerbiaThe only small ‘downside’ was that the room we stayed in was a bit smaller, but it wasn’t a serious issue at all.
Everything was excellent – the accommodation was clean, comfortable, and nicely arranged. The staff were very friendly and helpful, always ready to assist. Breakfast was varied and delicious. A truly pleasant stay, and I would be happy to come back again.

SloveniaBreakfast could be more varied, and parking is limited. However, the staff always did their best to find a spot when needed. Overall, a very pleasant stay.
The property is within walking distance to Budva Old Town and most of the main beaches, which makes getting around very convenient. The rooms were clean and well maintained. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay – especially Mr. Veselin, who was particularly accommodating. Overall, a good stay and value for money.

CanadaThe fact I had to leave to leave it! Seriously, there was not a single thing I did not like!
I did not like anything about the property because I LOVED everything about the property from its location, value, cleanliness, delicious breakfast to its consummately professional, exemplary, hard-working staff. You will never find hosts as warm, friendly and welcoming as Slobodan & Ivana! They were most knowledgeable not only about their beautiful hotel, but anything and everything you need and way to know about their beautiful city. To say that Slobodan goes “the extra kilometre” for his guests would be an understatement of colossal proportions, Slobodan goes “the extra marathon” for his guests from answering questions, giving amazing suggestions when asked and his love for his city is positively infectious! In all the time we were there, I think I saw Slobodan ONCE taking a break during a double-shift and I swear as I walked by he was he looked like he was ready to spring into action should any guest require his invaluable help. Ivana was also on duty and she could not have been friendlier, helpful or I must say patient to this one guest in particular who, on more than one occasion, forgot his keys! As you can plainly read, I cannot say enough about this beautiful hotel and staff second to none! You awake in a clear, comfortable room, you eat a delicious breakfast buffet prepared by two VERY hard-working and kind ladies and then, you are a 10 minute walk from the most beautiful beach. Along the way you’ll find shops for anything you need! 69 metres away from the hotel at the end of the short, one-way street is a restaurant which serves by many accounts the best pizza in town! Outside the hotel you’ll see 4 stars…and you will wonder why there are not at least “6”out of 5! I was in Budva with family and my son&his wife married in Bar, about 40 km away. We could not have made a better choice for our accommodations! We loved our stay and I hope to return soon.

IsraelThis hotel was an absolutely lovely experience for us! The guy at the front desk was very warm and welcoming, and went way and beyond to help and make us as comfortable and happy as possible throughout our stay. An unexpected surprise was breakfast; as vegans, we are used to being offered a breakfast of a few veggies and maybe cornflakes, but here we got a lovely, creative vegan breakfast, which was prepared and served especially for us! This is something that no other hotel ever did, and it really warmed our hearts (and stomachs!) We also liked the location of the hotel, - just a few minutes walk to the beautiful beach and the Old Town, + with a lovely view of the mountains. And lots of stores within walking distance. Next time we come to Budva - this will be our hotel again. We found it to be perfect!

United KingdomWe loved Hotel Vela and it made a pleasant change to have a sofa in our room to chill out on, as well as one of the most comfortable double beds we have experienced in Montenegro! We were there out of season in February but nonetheless it was a relief to have a guaranteed parking space, and the cooked breakfast was delicious. It was only a 10-minute walk to the Old Town, and our room was peaceful. We had a big window, no view to speak of but that didn't matter to us. We enjoyed our one-night stay very much.

Great place for a relaxing stay in Budva. It is away from the main touristy beach strip (which is a good thing), but still a reasonable walking distance from the Old Town and the beaches. Staff are amazing, very friendly a accomodating.
