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.).

United KingdomThe staff at the hotel was extremely helpful. They guided me through the road to exit the town. They also dropped me and my colleague at the factory we were visiting, without extra charges.

IrelandIt's not really a criticism, but the hotel should have a warning that the approach from the town might not be suitable for all vehicles. There is an alternative back road which asends much more gently. K
Well-appointed modern room in a nicely restored tower house. Spacious bathroom. Our room had a beautiful view of the town below.

AustraliaCheck in was difficult as the staff combine wait duties with front desk. Lugging heavy cases up the final flights off stairs was a challenge too.
Feels like staying in a castle…. And has great views. The room was spacious, really cute and quaint but is not for the very tall, or the faint hearted.

United KingdomThere was nothing I didn't like: everything was exceptional. (However, if you have any mobility issues, it's worth being aware that the hotel is at the top of a short, steep hill with potentially slippery cobbles at the bottom.)
Torre Zumeltzegi exceeded my expectations (even more so given the very reasonable price I paid). The hotel is a beautiful historic building, just a few minutes' walk from the centre of Oñati. My room was tastefully decorated and immaculately clean. The bed was extremely comfortable (I slept like a log) and the shower was great. The staff at Torre Zumeltzegi were fantastic: I can't praise them highly enough. They were friendly, patient and helpful and I was especially grateful to Iñigo for the kind welcome and all his recommendations. The hotel offers a good continental-style breakfast and I ate two evening meals in the restaurant, both of which were excellent.

United KingdomMy satnav trapped me in a dead end that I had to reverse out of. Not the fault of the hotel! Have a look at Google earth before visiting.
Beautiful place. Stone ,wooden beams but ultra modern. Great views. Friendly helpful staff. I had an excellent t bone steak and nice wine for my evening meal. There was a good breakfast included in the price, a good selection of hams, bread , cheese , cereal . They will also make you scrambled eggs. Make sure to ask what’s included in the price for the evening meal . We assumed it was a la carte but actually there was a fixed price for a “cena “. We would have chosen differently if we’d known this.

United KingdomThe road up from the town to the hotel is a single track road, very steep and winding. It appeared there should have been a traffic light system for the road but at the bottom it just flashed amber (for caution) and at the top end it was permanently on red. I assume this is not in the control of the hotel.
Stunning location in an old medieval tower looking out over the town and surrounding countryside, our room was at the top of the hotel with fantastic views. There was a small honour bar with tea and coffee free to help yourself to and a small selections of drinks at reasonable prices. The restaurant at the hotel was great with plenty of fresh fish options. The staff were friendly and helpful and spoke good english. Breakfast was excellent.
