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 are 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 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.).

The hotel overall did not disappoint. The location, room size, comfort and amazing balcony view of the Sintra valley was perfect in making our stay memorable. Fantastic breakfast and great drinks at the Miranda restaurant with an incredible sunset view. Thank you to the helpful and very friendly staff.

United KingdomCan't think of anything except of course the pricing but thats just being picky and maybe the driving directions which in that hilly/windy/narrow place need to be even more user friendly!
Location, location, location is normally used when buying a property but in this case it applies to this hotel and it has parking which in a place like Sintra is a huge benefit. Service was excellent as was the buffet breakfast. I great place to visit this lovely but hilly township.

AustraliaMy room had no towels, fridge didn't work, A/c was on heat and could not change it, Shower rose adjuster broken, no kettle for tea only the coffee machine which hot water produced has coffee flavour. Staff fixed these things, but this shouldn't happen to start with at this level of property.
Location great, 4+ star foyer, breakfast and rooms.

NetherlandsRoute in the complicated town of Sintra involves a restricted road. The need to use this particular road was not mentioned by the hotel. Google Maps and Waze didn't resolve this clearly either. Signs to the hotel point into a dead end road in the lower City and to two different restricted uphill roads closer to the hotel. Nearby the signs direct erroneously to the hotel reception where only a locked entrance to the parking garage can be found.
Location in Sintra City Centre. Spacious and well appointed room.

RomaniaThe attitude of the man in the Reception.....he tried to issue an invoice for three times and in the end he promised to send it to my email.....not event today - almost one week distance, I did not receive it. He explained as he missed the name company he has to ask the accountancy to change the invoice....but did not get back to me. Even if you have bad news for the client....it is very important the way you transmit them.

NetherlandsRoom had a nice balcony, which looked out to the lighted castle in the night time, magical! However is was not very pleasurable to sit there because of the noise of, I'm guessing airconditioning motor or such. I was not using the air conditioning in the room. It was a very low, ever present humming and could be heard even in the room although not as loud as outside. Restaurant could use some attention, floor and windows here and there not so clean. Menu was a bit boring and descriptions of dishes in English could have been more clear. Menu card itself could use an upgrade.
I stayed in NH Sintra for one night to visit the sights on my way from Lisbon. SInce I had my car fully packed and could park in the indoor parking gave peace of mind to enjoy my day. Reception inviting, staff friendly and professional. The lobby bar and restaurant has of great view but is a bit of strange mix. Seems they can't decide weather it to be a bar with football on the tv and very poor 90ties rock songs over the speakers or a swanky, pleasant hotel bar with comfortable seats to have cocktails and a bite to eat. Restaurant staff were hospitable. Room was good, not very cosy, good bed, linnens, as you may expect from an NH hotel.

United KingdomMinor things only: the shower head needed some maintenance. The restaurant food at dinner was fine but could have been even better. We opted to eat outside the hotel.
Nice room with excellent view. The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was good. The location was amazingly good for visiting Sintra and the surrounding palaces & historical sites. The terrace at the bar/restaurant was a super locale.

PortugalWe tried to reserve a table at the hotel restaurant just before 19:00 and were told that all tables were reserved for the evening.... We intended to eat early so ended up eating somewhere else! Funny enough, when we returned to the hotel, around 21:00, there were still empty tables.... Clearly bad management!
Location was perfect but getting there was very difficult because of traffic restrictions and GPS issues! The staff at the reception are really nice and the views from the balcony were very beautiful!

United StatesOne morning we had to wait in a long line for breakfast because there was a large tour group dining in the dining room. The hotel does not have the breakfast capacity to accommodate everyone when it hosts large tour groups. No Uber pickup at the hotel because Uber is not allowed in the old town center. So it’s a bit inconvenient but not the hotel’s fault.
Excellent location. Room was both clean and spacious, very pleasant. The view was fair.
