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...).

NetherlandsThe hotel is situated at the edge of a area which isn’t clean and with a lot of beggars and in the evening/night streetwalkers. At the back of the hotel there you can find this. At the front of the hotel is an other area which is much better. The hotel is 7 minutes walk away from the Rambla

AustraliaThe limited space for suitcases and a very small wardrobe. We’re staying here again in a few weeks and will be on a higher floor. Will be interested to see how the room is! Also the lifts are tiny!!
Reception was friendly and helpful, also 24 hours! Decor is very bright and colourful (think Gaudi!) Breakfast was excellent - big range, very tasty, good value and a lovely dining room. Beds were comfortable and the pillow range was great. The location is excellent - only a short walk to La Rambla and the Mercato, good restaurants in the ‘square’ outside the hotel. The rooftop bar was brilliant and the view is exceptional.

United KingdomThe room view from 214 was of a building so the curtains had to b closed permanently. On the Saturday night there was a group of men in the pool who were behaving badly, the staff should have stopped them being unruly.
The rooftop bar was great, lots of seats and great views, went up to the bar every night. There was generally a queue to get served but it was orderly and due to the barmen taking pride and care making the cocktails. The breakfast was good and the staff friendly and efficient. The reception staff were very helpful. The room air conditioning was essential in July. The room cleaners were very good, polite and friendly.

RomaniaThe park around the hotel is very dirty and doesn't look very safe. There is always a long queue at the bar on the rooftop. Long time of waiting at the elevators as they stop to pick up guests from every floor. Toilet is separated from the shower and the only bathroom sink is in the room -> strange arrangement but it is typical for Barcelona. Overall there is nothing bad about the hotel, but minor inconveniences as described above.
The hotel was nice, the rooftop is very cool. The staff were very helpful and nice. The food at the restaurant is very good. The room was ok and modern. The proximity with the center most touristic areas is the best thing about this hotel. You always have a taxi just in front of the hotel waiting. We were able to do early check in for a small amount of extra charge.

GreeceThe property is great. Energy wise it consumes a lot to keep chilled temperatures in the room! Outside of the property someone must explain to the Barcelonian authorities how to keep the roads clean! Just spaying a bit of water on the roads in the night creates even more uncomfortable situations in roads where dogs and men urine almost on every corner! In areas like Raval pets should be kept out of it as it can endanger public health.
Nice rooftop with 369 view to the city! Rather bathtude than swimming pool on it! Still nice! Nice view from the room! Great location to escape from top touristic destinations of BCN. Comfortable stay to experience Raval district!

United KingdomThe pool on the roof wasn't particularly clean. This was the only downside to the hotel.
The staff were friendly and helpful. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were clean. We enjoyed dinner at the restaurant and drinks up in the roof bar. The view from the roof was great and helped us plan where we wanted to explore.

SloveniaThe location of the hotel is not nice, to put it mildly. I felt very uneasy even during the day, let alone night. A colleague was in the same shady area of town in a hotel nearby and we always made sure that nobody walks alone after dark. Not really the way I like to travel. Pity, otherwise the hotel itself is great.
I loved the design, the use of space in the room and the breakfast was excellent.

AustraliaThe location of the hotel was in a bit of a dodgy area, we sometimes felt nervous walking to and from the hotel until you got a couple of streets out. The rooftop is also opened to the public, so you don’t always get a seat even though you have paid for the facility and the pool is a bit awkward
Great rooftop bar for views of Barcelona, funky vibe but fun!

United KingdomThe shower facilities in the room were not particularly private when you are sharing a twin with a friend. The bed had rather bizarre sheets that 'swaddle you' The rooftop bar got very crowded in the evening, and several stag do parties were celebrating in the " plunge pool" area, which was a bit disruptive/loud. There was a lot of noise in the hotel through the night The window views in the room weren't great so, understandably, a nice screen curtain was in place - however this was hard to work out how to open, and when it was open it was 'all or nothing'. Would have been nice to have had a different option.
The location was great for our purposes and the roof top view was excellent
