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.).

SurinameWhen we wanted to take the lift, there was a cleaning lady inside. We told her we needed to go down, and while it’s not an issue for us to wait, the concern was more about her attitude — simply saying “I’m going up” without any courtesy. As hotel guests, we would have appreciated a friendlier approach.
Breakfast was amazing, and the staff were very friendly. Especially the lady at the pool (unfortunately we didn’t catch her name, but she has braces) — it was raining, and she personally guided us on how to get to Torarica for our wellness appointment. The ambiance was great. The bed was comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly.

NetherlandsThe room was noticeably warm and had a strong humid smell. While I appreciated the overall stay, I felt the experience didn’t quite justify the price point.
The location is fantastic – very central and convenient. The staff were helpful and generally friendly.

NetherlandsSome issues in the room. Glasses weren't changed, found a wet bathrobe in the shower, safe didn't work because of corroded batteries, noisy AC in one of our rooms. Nothing big but not what you'd expect from an establishment like this.
Staff is very friendly and helpful and really take care of you. The pools are great as well as the gardens and pier. Spending the day here is no punishment, so if you want to take a day off and not go outside, you are taken good care of. You can use facilities of the other Torarica as well. All in all, an enjoyable stay.

NetherlandsVery good hotel, quite up to western standards. The staff is very accommodating and happy to help. Had especially good service from Xiomara. This is particularly great for families with a very nice pool and always a pool guard to watch over your precious ones. The breakfast of Royal quiet divers and a must try.

NetherlandsSome white towels had some old stains The safe didn't work, it was locked by a previous guest and not unlocked before my arrival Restaurant is overpriced for what it is offering USD 90 for an average quality steak. A Greek salad without any dressing seem to miss the point. Inconsistent room delivery: My room had no AC running My relative had the AC running at arrival via a dummy card . The room quality, design and lighting is below the price. Empty mini bar.
