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.).

ZimbabweOur flight was delayed, so we arrived at the hotel one day later. The manager Melissa is so kind that she upgraded our room to the seaside villa with a private swimming pool. We can see the beautiful beach from our backyard. The bed and pillows are super comfortable. We like the shower in the yard, which reduces the humidity in the room. Surprisingly, we didn't see even one mosquito or insect around. The hotel must have taken measures to drive them away. The Japanese restaurant is good. The ladies at the reception are very helpful. Neige extended our checkout until 2pm in the afternoon since we had a late flight. Overall, we had a wonderful stay more than we expected.

SwitzerlandThere was a dehumidifier in the room, which had to run 24/7, was quite noisy and had to be emptied regularly throughout the day and sometimes also at night. We got used to it and accepted it as without it the humidity in the room would be uncomfortable.
Our room was spacious, simply but tastefully decorated and clean. Although the hotel is big it didn’t feel crowded or busy the way some resorts do. The atmosphere was very relaxed. Our two year old son had plenty to explore, felt welcome everywhere and loved the attention from the staff. He also loved spending time with Jackie at the kids’ club (children under 3 need to be accompanied by an adult but it was a nice break for us nevertheless to know that he’s taking part in different activities, while we got to relax and read on a comfy sofa in the corner). We ate mostly at the restaurants at the hotel, as going out into the town in the evening with a 2 year old seemed less feasible than what we expected (the streets were a bit dark, pavement narrow and uneven and traffic on the road quite heavy, hard to navigate with a stroller). The food was pretty nice and as a pescatarian I always had a few options to choose from. The beach was very easy to get to (right behind the bar) and calm, with beautiful views.

IrelandThe hotel's location is fantastic, right on a beautiful beach with white sands and crystal sea to swim. You can take a walk down the coast to a number of popular and delicious restaurants/bars outside of the hotel. The rooms are lovely and spacious and overlook the sea and pool. The staff were fantastic and took the liberty of decorating the room for a birthday we didn't even tell them we were celebrating. We had a couples massage which was brilliant - the staff are very talented. The food was amazing, namely the croissants and fresh orange juice, and dinner you have to try the fresh red snapper and famous creol sauce. The hotel organised an airport transfer for us and it was very easy to book. You can book tours and excursions directly from the hotel also. Just great! Highly reccommend!

IndiaWe absolutely loved our stay at Story Mahe. The location is super convenient, and while Beau Vallon is a bit commercial, access to restaurants and bars close by was great, especially because Seychelles can be quite sleepy in general. The beach is just outside the property and great for swimming. Rooms are very comfortable and clean, housekeeping prompt. What stood out for us was the level of hospitality...the staff were super helpful with anything we needed. We ended up spending a bit of time with the new GM Marlon and the F&B Manager. They were super hospitable and generally great people to chill with.
