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.).

CanadaThe staff were very nice and eager to help but didnt have a lot of knowledge about the activities in the area. There was also a creepy abandoned hotel directly across that was an eyesore
Great location close to Black Lake. Lovely sauna area on the top floor. Clean rooms

United KingdomService, including service at reception was first class. They were always very helpful and provided guidance both on the current local area and the next area we were planning to visit. Breakfast was a good spread of things, all generally fresh. We also had dinner there and again service was good and careful. Location was within walking distance of the National Park, ensuring that we had good access to walks and the lake.

United KingdomInstruction on activities was minimal we ended up down the Tara Canyon for rafting with no cash having not been told we had to pay cash on day. Rafting company wasn’t great. Previous guests food was in freezer compartment.
Great location for Black Lake and town with 2-3 good restaurants and easy to book activities Jeep tour and buggy trip were great.

IsraelService beyond imagination at the soa hotel I have to share with you a crazy experience we had at the sos hotel! We arrived tired and exhausted in the evening, after we had a flat tire on the way. We had already imagined all the nightmares of looking for a tire shop late at night, but then something amazing happened. The reception representative, Mr. Zarko, simply went out of his way! He not only helped us find a place that would take care of the problem quickly, but even offered to meet us there to make sure we received decent service at a fair price. This is not only good service, it is service beyond all expectations. This help, care and dedication make this hotel a place that I highly recommend, and we will definitely return there. Thank you so much Zarko and Soa Hotel! Definitely recommended.

United KingdomIt’s an odd location, about a mile from the town and the same from the lake/national park. The ambience is odd ( there’s a creepy sad looking abandoned big hotel immediately opposite) and the evening food choice was limited and heavily traditional with not a lot of healthy choices..
Very friendly and helpful staff who spoke good English, suite was big, comfy and clean .. bed was so big there was not much space in the room. The breakfast choice was very good.

IsraelWe liked the location, near the Black Lake path, not far from a big store and a good restaurant. The hotel restaurant is good. There is a sauna. The staff is kind and helpful. We took a 2 bedrooms appartement. One of the bedrooms was very comfortable, the other was small. The kitchen lacked a lot: no pan, no coffee machine, not a salad bowl, not a cutting board and knife, no kitchen towel and dish soap and sponge…there were only 2 bar chairs for 4 persons and only 2 balcony chairs.

IsraelThe staff was super nice. We got a free upgrade to a suit. They tended to every issue, the sauna and steam bath were very nice, breakfast was great, restaurant for dinner was amazing with good prices. Water temperature and water pressure might be a bit low for those who like it hot and high pressure. Other than that- perfect!

Everything about this boutique hotel is stunning! Greeting at the front desk, availability of staff, warmness of the hotel and its amenities, offerings.... from drinks, meals, breakfast (which is a separate story of abundance and delicious home made choices), spa and sauna and massage.... My visit was during not typical season, begging of March, with poor weather conditions in Zabljak, of rainy and chilly days - but the hotel with its coziness made up for the weather. Room was spotlessly clean, warm, with comfortable bed.

CroatiaThe breakfast is not what it seems, on the first day we’ve had just 2 different choices where on the second day there was a buffet with lots of choices. A bit hard for the people that can’t eat everything and have restrictions.
The location is amazing, so close to everything important. The staff is great!! The receptionists and the girl doing the massages are a true gem!
