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 StatesThe construction next door but that’s not the hotels fault, just an unfortunate situation
Staff was AMAZING! Location is great, not far from town and the shuttle to/from town is such an excellent bonus. We loved the pool, our room, the staff. If we return to Alghero Hotel Calabona is definitely our first choice

United KingdomThere are building works on the site adjoining the hotel currently and these are noisy in the morning and when lying by the pool. There is no complimentary drinking water on arrival and instead small bottles of water are charged at €2 which did not seem very hospitable after a long journey. The sound proofing between rooms was not great and we were disturbed by noisy guests in the neighbouring room.
The staff were welcoming and attentive, responding very quickly to our enquiries and concerns about the room and the Manager made contact directly to ensure that our concerns had been addressed. This was very much appreciated. We were offered a complimentary aperitif on our last night and a late checkout. The swimming pool is wonderful and the little beach nearby is great for accessing the sea.

IrelandOnly one ironing board in the hotel which you have to use at the back of reception. You’d expect that from a hostel not a four star hotel.
Shuttle bus was a great service in and out if town.

IrelandThe breakfast while it was a good offering was a little expensive at 24 euro per person, I don't think the hotel needs to charge guests so much for this in comparison with other hotels in Sardinia and what they charge. The bed and pillows were quite hard/firm
The room was fairly simple but it was clean and no issues. The staff in general were very friendly and attentive, especially at breakfast time. The pool area was nice and plenty of beds available. The bar/restaurant for lunch was nice and the staff there were nice also.

IrelandThe Hotel Calabona is a lovely place, not far from Alghero and right by the sea. The staff were really friendly, and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. We especially appreciated the free evening shuttle. One night we had dinner at the bistro, and the food was delicious. We truly enjoyed our stay.

IrelandLack of a "pub" - opportunity to meet and chat to people while having a drink; draught beer. I think this leads to a lack of atmoshphere in the evenings/nights. Restaurant and bar was almost empty every evening

BrazilThe family room at Pousada Calabona is the epitome of comfort and joy. The large ocean view, the terrace with a lounge chair and small tables, and two spacious and bright connecting rooms—all in perfect harmony—are just a ten-minute walk from the city center or a quick ride on the hotel shuttle.

IrelandAircon isn't the best in the rooms and very loud. No water in the room, just water to buy from the mini bar. Prices at the bar were expensive. €3 for a litre of water
Lovely hotel, the pool is really nice and the lovely little beach across the way is so nice! Alot of people leave towels are sunbeds for the whole day at the pool and leave for hours so can be hard to get a spot. Lovely pool bar with drinks and food, staff are so friendly and helpful. Had breakfast the first day and it's very tasty but €24pp is expensive. 20 minute walk to the centre but lovely walk along the boardwalk and there is also a free shuttle. Would definitely stay again.

RomaniaThe only thing I didn't like was that they didn't let you stay at the private beach until after 9:30.
I really liked the staff who behaves with you like a 10, the pool is big, the sea is close and everything is very clean. There is also a kind of relaxation area with: a ping-pong table, a big TV and several retro games. There is also free transportation from the hotel to the old town at certain specific times. Those who work at the hotel can help you with anything you need.
