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 are 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 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.).

MaltaWe booked a room with three twin beds but we only got one bed, which was really inconvenient. They should have stated that this would be the case because I would have looked for alternative accommodation. As it was, the booking was prepaid so we had to stay there. Management just said all the rooms were booked and that there was nothing they could do 🙄
Location is very good, close to all the key sites, the system to get in and out is very convenient, and it was super clean, with the room being refreshed daily. There's a 24/7 convenience store right next door which was so handy when I forgot my adaptor to charge my phone. It's a good base for a short visit to Barcelona if you don't plan on spending much time there.

United StatesThere is some miscommunication about the check-in and check-out times, but it didn’t end up being too much of an issue. I was able to keep my luggage in my room while it was straightened up.
I liked that the property was clean and I had a virtual keycard.

United KingdomUm… maybe, to said something, that we did not realise that we need to put a sign in the door to be clean.
The location!!!! The hotel is in the middle of Barcelona, 10 min from plaza Catalunya and 10 min from Paseo de Gracia. Completed silent in the night and beds are so comfortable. We have a family room and just perfect with a little terrace.

BulgariaEverthing was completely remote through whatsapp, no one was there to greet us or for us to ask questions. For me personally, the personal touch is important but other than that everything was working well. It was a little difficult to understand where to go for breakfast, but we eventually understood from the notes left on the bed.
The room was very clean and tidy, the location was very close to plaza Catalunya.

GreeceThe room needs a little freshing up (some parts/chairs/doorhandles need replacing). The internal walls separating the rooms and the corridor are very thin, with no soundproofing. You can hear everything going on like its right next to you (but curiously enough, not the traffic outside:) What we didnt like the most was the breakfast. It is being served in a gay bar nearby. Not that we have a particular problem with gays, they can do whatever they wish in their lives. But we didnt like the choice of this place for breakfast, especially for a family. We wouldnt go over there even by pure choice - we didnt like it from the outside. So we felt even weirder having to go there with our baby. Anyway, we went the first time. The place was very small and stuffy, it didnt feel particularly clean and they didnt have most of the basic things written in the "breakfast" menu. They didnt have tortillas, they didnt have croissants, they didnt even have orange juice. Then, the next day I was running late so, instead of going back and forth, my husband went to take the breakfast for us and bring it to our room. This time, their behavior was rude to him and not polite as the first day. They said they could not give him any kind of breakfast because they didnt have wraps for takeaway. Then when he said no problem he could take it in hand (a sandwich for example) they said this is not the deal they had with the hostal and denied giving him anything. So we decided not to go again due to their rude manners and overall unsatisfactory experience of the first day. Obviously the deal is to have breakfast over there so as to show that the store has traffic but I m sorry Barcelona City Hostal, its a bad choice for your customers. We paid for 4 nights including breakfast and we had "breakfast" only once. And if we were talking about a good quality breakfast, I wouldnt even object the place.
The cleanliness was impecable. Every day they made our room and changed the towels. The location was also very convenient, close to 3 metro stations and sights worth visiting. The room simple but adequate for our needs. It had a little balcony with view to the main street which was nice.
