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...).

FinlandSomeone had smoked in the room previously. Furthermore, the air was not fresh, there was something damp, etc. Luckily, I could open the window. As an allergic, one night was a maximum I could stay. Self-service check-in, which was OK, but I had some problem with finding a door code, so I needed to wait for another guest to come and open the door.
Excellent location in the centre of old town. Nice view from the higher floor.

FranceRooms are quiet small but for Geneva standards it's perfectly fine.
Hotel is very well located as it's right in the city center close from all attractions and public transport. A lot of food options around and it has a very nice view. One of the good options to stay in Geneva during work trips.

United KingdomWe had a minor emergency when we (eventually, as directions were poor) arrived late at night after a day of travel. Someone else had taken our second room, using a key left for us in an envelope on the unmanned desk. There were no staff, the phone number was an answer phone, the Internet didn't work and was then patchy. The instructions and telephone rates were dated 2014. We were desperate. Fortunately, the guy who had taken our room moved out. It was a very unpleasant experience and it took an hour or two to settle our extreme anxiety. If there had been a serious emergency, god knows what we would have done.
Good shower and bathroom, comfy beds. Fred the host was genial and helpful the following morning.

Romaniawhile it was clean and towels were changed daily, there were some very small details that need fixing: e.g shower hose in bad condition, carpet with stains, fridge tilted to the side. However nothing outstanding to ruin one’s experience
great location! staff was friendly and helpful. If coming from airport, take bus 10 and get down at the end of the line - hotel is 1 min away in the city center

Netherlandsthere is construction work going on next door which was awfully noisy in the mornings of course. but I can't blame the hotel for this, it was just unfortunate timing.
i was very into the old decor ! very vintage, but comfy and clean. its aesthetic might not be for everyone's taste, but I enjoyed it as an experience. everything was great in the room. I arrived past their check-in time, but the staff arranged the key to be ready for me on arrival. it is well located with many yummy cafés and shops within walking distance.

United KingdomAlthough there was a kitchen in the studio which was well equipped, it would have been nice to have some tea and coffee provided. The information online says there is parking near by however we couldn’t find anything suitable for a longer distance away from the hotel.
The studio room was much bigger than expected, and a lot was included in the price making the property very good value for money. The bed was extremely comfortable. There was a dinning room table and chairs and lots of kitchen facilities making it easy to cook there if you wanted to. Perfect location central to town, shopping streets and restaurants. Beautiful view from the top floor studios.

United KingdomThe safe didn't work and the fridge was rather noisy - but these are minor issues.
Nothing was too much trouble for the manager, Fred. He was really excellent. Likewise, the cleaning lady was also very good. The location, just a few steps from the centre of the historical district in one direction and the lake in the other, couldn't be better.

SwitzerlandIt had everything I wanted but I was rather disconcerted by the building site right next door, with a massive crane. However I wasn't disturbed by construction noises ... there was no jack-hammering. Wasn't woken early by builders ...
It was a small attic room on the 6th floor (with lift) ... small shower, small cooking corner with hotplates, microwave & some equipment, comfortable bed, everything clean, functional but slightly shabby. Location: walking distance from Cornavin main station, on the edge of the old town. It was acceptable for the price ..Fr.87.- with no breakfast. I got a good night's sleep. I was given a "Geneva Transport Card", which gave me free public transport for the duration of my 2-day stay. Trams & buses in the vicinity.

Near the beautiful Geneva lake, can reach in 2-3 minutes to Trams and buses stops. I like the room. This hotel is now becoming like my home in a third country because I used this hotel since 2015 for my work travel to Geneva.

SpainThe room was filthy. The windows did not shut tight enough to stop any of the street noise. The curtains were transparent so the room was not even dark at night and bright first thing in the morning. The internet did not work. Went on and off so there was no way to work. The staff have limited hours and can barely help. There are strange smells coming from the other rooms.. Absolutely horrible.
