Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

Good breakfast, very helpful staff (we arrived during a very important religious holiday and the staff helped us a lot with getting to the airport). Very nice outdoor swimming pool in the center of the hotel. The biggest advantage - great location, all of Ponta Delgada within walking distance. I would highly recommend!

CanadaIt’s hard to find anything bad!
Elegant, spacious, old building with modern renovation. Clean. Comfortable and very quiet. Nice restaurant with good breakfast of fruit, yoghurt, bacon and eggs, cheese and cold cuts, breads, cereals, juice and coffee. Plenty of hot water, air conditioning and great windows. Elevators and staff help with luggage. Parking on premises was safe and convenient. Staff always helpful and kind.

Czech RepublicStaff at breakfast were angry and also at breakfast there was rowdy loud music. For water at breakfast we had to pay (a small amount) which was a bit strange.
The hotel is a pleasant building in a quiet street. The place is roomy the rooms are adequate the beds a bit small. Staff at the reception were very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was excellent but…

The building location and decor was great! The staff were so friendly and helpful. Modern decor with historic features of basalt which the region is known for.

The location was fantastic in downtown Ponta Delgada. Bianca at the front desk was super-helpful. The room was comfortable and at a good price point. It was great to have parking in the building, and the car elevator was an interesting experience.

PortugalMy only complaint - and quite a big one - was that the pillows were very old and lumpy and uncomfortable. For a hotel of this standard this was really a surprising let down & meant I left with a sore neck. As I was only staying one night I didn't get chance to ask for different pillows, so it might have been possible to change them. Everything else was fantastic.
A very nicely designed hotel in a great location. The room was well sized and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

CanadaParking can be an issue. The bed was too firm for our liking. Did not have a connection for IPTV.
The location of this well-appointed hotel was right in the heart of Ponta Delgada and within walking distance to the majority of tourist spots and a variety of restaurants. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The self-serve breakfast buffet that was included was good and provided lots of choice.
