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.).

PanamaAs the property is in Casco Viejo, there’s a loud rooftop bar across the park that blasts music until 11:30 pm, then it closes down and there’s a lot of people and car traffic on adjacent streets. But it’s part of being in Casco Viejo.
The hotel is beautiful, with many spaces to work, read, relax, and enjoy an extended stay. The location is super convenient, especially if you want to hang out in Casco Viejo and/or have a car, since they offer private and valet parking. Everything is top quality. The restaurants a bar also serve some of the best in Casco Viejo at fair prices. We took the breakfast included option and it was very good in both portion sizes and quality. We enjoyed our stay and will come back next year.

SwitzerlandFist of all, I loved the spacious room and the great AESOP toiletries !!! It is a beautiful colonial classic with all the charm you’d hope for. The high ceilings, the marble bathrooms with stunning colorful tiles immediately give you that sense of old world elegance. The squeaky wooden floors? They just add to the atmosphere, reminding you you’re in a place full of character and history. It’s nestled right in the heart of the historic old town, so expect the occasional sound of church bells, honestly, it adds a lovely backdrop to your stay. Everything is close by: cozy coffee spots, great restaurants, little shops, and even a small supermarket just steps away from the entrance. You can easily walk everywhere. Yes, the place has its quirks, it’s a bit worn in places, but that fits with the overall charm of the building. It’s not trying to be ultra-modern, and that’s part of what makes it feel so special. The design walks a nice line between classic and stylishly updated. Overall, it’s quiet and peaceful. The hotel’s restaurant is definitely worth a visit. It feels like a hidden gem; maybe not always bustling, but the food is really good and fairly priced. Breakfast is also great. And don’t skip the little coffee spot attached to the hotel; they serve delicious cakes, cookies, and pastries. Tap water’s safe to drink, which is a plus. I loved my stay. It’s one of those places where you actually feel somewhere, not just in another generic hotel.

All the FD staff were super welcoming and very helpful. The service in the dining room was excellent as usual as was the food. It's a really wonderful experience. Genesis and her team make you feel like you're coming home, and that's what hospitality is all about.

GermanyOur family of 6 (20-60 years old) spent a total of 5 nights at the American Trade Hotel before traveling on to Bocas del Toro. This accommodation totally won us over because of its perfect location in the middle of the beautiful old town. It is a place to feel at home with its high ceilings and very beautiful, stylish colonial furnishings. The rooftop pool offers beautiful views and is a real cozy oasis when you return from a trip out of town. The rooms are also cozy and inviting and you have a breathtaking view of the modern skyline and the roofs of the old town. Breakfast is a la carte and includes a wide selection of fruits and egg dishes. The staff is always friendly and happy to help. All in all, we enjoyed our stay very much.
