Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

GermanyWe could hear the other guests sometimes, but that wasn't too big of a problem for us.
We visited over a long weekend and had a great time. The hosts are very kind and open to recommend restaurants or things to do in and around Viña del Mar, the all-around service was great too. The rooms are beautiful and the whole location is very welcoming. We were very happy with our stay and would definitely recommend going there!

United KingdomEverything was perfect.
This place is amazing in every respect! We loved our stay in this beautiful little hotel. The owners, Adri and Christian, were so helpful. They really went out of their way to make us feel at home. They also booked lovely restaurants and a private tour in Valparaiso, all of which were fantastic. The hotel itself is stunning. You can tell that a lot of love has gone into every nook and cranny. The room itself was very comfortable and spotless. We also spent a lot of time lounging on comfy sofas in the communal areas, surrounded by beautiful plants and flowers. You can select exactly what you want for breakfast and everything was cooked to perfection. It was really delicious. The hotel is in a great location, only a few blocks back from the beach and surrounded by shops and restaurants. Our stay here really was the loveliest experience and we would definitely stay here again if we returned to Vina del Mar. Thank you very much Adri and Christian.

PolandNothing. It was perfect.
We liked literarily everything. The room was very cozy and clean. The whole hotel and the courtyard as well. Beautiful and cozy garden. The owners paid a great deal attention to details when they renovated the place. Breakfasts were excellent. Made to order, served in the courtyard. The hotel is at a great location. Plenty of restaurants around, close to the beach. And we felt very safe there. But first and foremost the owners are the nicest most friendly people. Despite being busy running the hotel they always had time to chat. And they spoke excellent English - very important, since we did not speak a word of Spanish.

United States of AmericaWouldn’t change Anything!!!
“Amazing”! I have Never had an experience like this staying anywhere before. Christian was incredibly helpful and made the experience truly one of a kind. We enjoyed the breakfast (great options and was filling for two active folks), the staff was all so attentive and wonderful, the whole place was incredibly clean, and generally we had an amazing experience. There are a lot of options and I understand it’s hard to choose, but you won’t find a better choice. You can tell they truly care about your experience. Ask questions while you’re there! Christian goes out of his way in every respect to make sure you have a good time. The location is also fabulous! Valparaiso is an easy Uber ride and the beaches are close. Great food everywhere you turn and truly wonderful people. I could keep going but I think you get it… Be open to new experiences and have a comfortable place to stay.

I prefer boutiques/B&Bs rather than hotels, and this one had all the personal touches that I love, including a delicious breakfast and a lovely patio with a herb garden (for your morning tea!) I couldn’t recommend it more.

I can't say enough good things about Esencia and everyone there. My stay was absolutely perfect! Much better than I was expecting. Starting with the communication days before my arrival, I received all the information that I needed. Upon my arrival I was pleased by how cute the place is and a really nice neighbourhood. The check-in process was a breeze. They also gave me a couple of great recommendations of restaurants and activities, they also reserved the restaurantes for me! If you're thinking about staying in Viña del Mar, I can't imagine a better place to stay than Esencia!
