How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe facilities are roughly 20 years old but in great shape. The whole resort is outstanding in beauty and is impeccable. The villas are a nice touch as there are no elevators or hallways but you really get a lodge feeling. The pools are nice and the beach is clean. The service and attention to the customer and guests is the best I have ever seen.
We were asked before arrival about special requests. We said we wanted a quiet room what we got is an adjourned room with a connecting door to another room. We could hear every word the other guests were saying and had to change rooms at midnight before an early morning flight. I think that's a big miss. If you're going to ask guests about special wishes then also make sure to address them. Especially when most of the rooms in the resort are standalone rooms.

Verified reviewThe service is just amazing, from start till the end. The staff in the lobby, behind the desk, the pool and the roomservice all 10/10. I have been to many hotels, this one was beyond expectations.
I would only recommend to give water/drink when entering the hotel the first time, this is just a small gesture but has big impacts. I find the in-house restaurants and activities really expensive. A massage for 1200 Qar is ridiculous. Keep in mind, for us it was no problem because the staff was really helpful, but if you get a room on the upper floor there is no lift.

Verified reviewI booked this hotel for my parents, they really liked this luxurious resort. According to them, cultural buildings and design of the hotel, everything was made with attention to detail. To see this beauty made them feel harmony and peace. After their visit to Nepal they will come back and stay at your resort!

Verified reviewAs someone who travels frequently for business and leisure, and is used to high international standards, I can confidently say this hotel is operating at a top-tier level. Location, facilities, pools, and above all – the staff – absolutely first-class. Everything is thoughtfully designed, modern, and immaculately maintained. The service is warm, professional, and consistently attentive – whether at the front desk, by the pool, or in the restaurants. Hospitality here is clearly not just a word, but a lived value. The food? Simply outstanding. A wide variety, fresh ingredients, and creative dishes. From breakfast to dinner, everything was on point. I particularly appreciated the mix of international options with refined local touches. Even as a frequent traveler, I discovered new culinary highlights. That said – we’re giving this hotel a full 100 out of 100. The positives far outweigh the few minor issues. We felt incredibly well taken care of, enjoyed every moment, and left with nothing but great memories.
A couple of points to keep in mind: While I fully understand the business logic of opening some facilities to non-hotel guests, by around 5 p.m. the atmosphere around the pool noticeably shifted. There were simply too many external male guests, which made it feel a bit less exclusive and comfortable – especially for families or couples. Another small downside: Cabanas at the private beach come with an additional charge – even for hotel guests. In a five-star setting, I personally find this unnecessary and would love to see this reconsidered.
