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 KingdomI was expecting slightly classier dinner experience for a four star hotel. A better choice of drinks at dinner, like choice of good wine per glass. Perhaps too many tables, which don’t help the ambience. Also, a senior male waiter at breakfast wasn’t particularly helpful, he needed a lesson from rest of the fabulous team at this hotel.
A fabulous stay! The spa at this hotel is above level of other hotels at twice the price. Super polite staff and very friendly. I was impressed as this is quite unusual for Slovakia :). Breakfast was fantastic and I am definitely going back.

LithuaniaThe main pool should be more clean, did not understood permission to go at sauna without swimwear, especcialy when hot tubs are in there 🤷dinner extra drink fee was upseting, that should be free, at least water (because of the 20 eu dinner).Breakfast juice tastes kinda cheap. 🤷 Biliard table poor, cues old, not all balls. Internet at 7th floor was very poor. Hard to work if you need it. All in all, price should be lower, because of the extra taxes/ prices in hotel. Bycicles rent would be perfect option.
The view from room was very nice, breakfast and dinner kinda rich, excluding drinks. There was nice sauna zone. Nice cables for charging electric devices. Was pleasant to get the umbrella during rain walk 👍

UkraineThe main restaurant had a limited fish offer. We do not eat meat, and we had to go outside for every meal. I hope that when they open the 2nd restaurant after reconstruction, they will have fish as well.
Location was excellent, with the forest right at the foor. Big swimming pool with a wonferful view.

SlovakiaEven though the rooms were non-smoking, we could often smell the cigarette smoke of other visitors when we opened the windows. That was disappointing, since we hoped to only smell the fresh mountain air. This is a problem especially in the summer, when you want to keep your windows open all the time. Also, we could not find a boolket with information about hotel services in the room, so we had to ask every info at the reception.
The location is nice, even though it was not in the center of Smokovec. The hotel offers good meals, wellness and other services, the staff is nice and helpful.

Czech RepublicThe accessibility for pedestrain is poor - there is no pavement leading to the hotel. You can walk either through busy car entrance or take a narrow path through the bushes (with a lot of excrements all around).
Large pool (25 min) upen till 10 PM, very kind staff at wellness. Really nice hotel with live piano player performing daily in the lobby.

PolandThe stuff is extremely rude. I have reached out to them asking about the charge for a dog. I didn't receive any response. After arriving, they told me that they charge 40 euros per night for a dog which is crazy amount of money. The hotel aspires to be a luxury place but it's not. Some part were renovated, others not. Breakfast was mostly processed food. I definitely do not recommend.
Wellness area is fine.

PolandWhat must be improved: not nice smell in the bathroom and the bathroom doors which were no able to be closed smoothly without making noise. For 180 EUR per night you expect to have room without such problems..
very good location, clean room, good variety for breakfast. Spa with broad variety of sauna, but water in the swimming pool might be warmer. Comfy beds

BelgiumThe hotel is out dated…, very clean but old style anno 1990…. No airco in a 4 star resort. Was very hot in our room so we slept with the windows open, this was fine but a lot of noise from the street.
Nice location and nice Spa area !

Lithuania1. There's no air conditioning. Extremely hot and bed is so soft is hard to sleep. 2. Sound isolation is terrible. Seems like people are talking in your bathroom they are in adjacent room. 3. Breakfast waitress is unbelievably RUDE. He treats guests as prison guard treats prisoners. He refused to let us in even if there were still 7 minutes until the end of breakfast time. After arguing he left us in but was so demonstratively angry and unpleasant. He switched off coffee machine exactly at 10:00 so i couldn't get my coffee after unpleasant breakfast :) Refused to switch it on. So, he could feel so powerful and right although some people were still in the hall finishing the meal. 4. Other people's hair in sink. 5. Overpriced.

HungaryBoth restaurants (the main one and the Slovak restaurant) have a 'retro' feeling from the '80s: large but lacking in atmosphere, and the staff wasn't friendly at all.
Large wellness areas with several saunas, steam cabins, and an indoor pool. A beautiful location. The farewell gift—a bottle of wine—was a nice touch.

United KingdomJacuzzis in spa far too hot. When raised with staff they said it was the owner’s preference and no changes were made. Two other staff commented that it was too hot. Also very, very poor wifi. Zero in our first room and then when we changed, it was very patchy. Reception said it was because the hotel was busy - not good enough.
Nice pool. Clean rooms. Breakfast was tasty. Great location within easy walking distance of village.
