Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United States of AmericaWe booked this hotel last minute and late at night. Booking confirmed our hotel, but I knew there was a chance that they might not have confirmed themselves. When we got there, because of the last minute booking their receptionist had already left. Regardless, the guy was super sweet and when we called upper management, they told him to accommodate us and that they would handle it in the morning. They were able to keep us in our room for the two nights that we were there. Very helpful.

United States of AmericaThe rooms are very dated. They have a cheap and moldy ahower curtain in the bathroom instead of a glass door. No air conditioning . It would be nice to have sealed water bottles in the room instead of the clay ecofilter
The property is beautiful; the staff is very nice. The best part are the beautiful gardens and the fact that is a lake front property

United States of AmericaThe hotel assisted us with planning transportation which was difficult to coordinate and required cash which was complicated.
The gardens are gorgeous and it was wonderful to have access to the kayaks, organizing the boat tours, and helping with transportation into the town. It was also great to be able to walk to the Nature Reserve for ziplining and walking around.

United States of AmericaI wish they had more dining options on site. The breakfast was lovely but the dinner menu could use some creativity. But that’s a minor complaint.
The garden grounds are expansive and beautiful! The views of Lake Atitlan and the volcanoes from our little terrace were breathtaking! The room was clean and well-appointed. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

United States of AmericaI’m not sure if she was the owner/manager, but the older lady who seemed to be in charge was not friendly, and in one instance we had to wait to talk to the front desk staff while she admonished him in front of us. I felt sorry for all the staff we saw her treating meanly, and I felt heavy for the sadness she must hold being full of so much anger. It was not a good look for such a beautiful hotel that otherwise held so much positive energy.
This hotel delivered way more than I ever expected. The property grounds and gardens were absolutely immaculate and serene. The level of love and attention the staff puts into caring for the facility and guests is amazing. The pools were clean and the temperature perfect. The restaurant staff were so friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious with high quality ingredients and beautifully presented. Tuktuks were available whenever we wanted to go to town.

Beautifully landscaped property with classic Spanish accents. We loved walking the grounds. The breakfast was exceptional! We really enjoyed our stay. One high note was the reserve down the road. With the walking bridges and waterfall it was worth the price of admission.

United States of AmericaThe staff were very helpful. They booked our car back to Guatemala City and it helped make our trip so much easier. It was also very easy to get into town as they would call a tuk-tuk for you. The view from the hotel far surpassed any expectations we had. The photos do not do it justice. The property is outstanding. I couldn't image staying anywhere else on the lake.
