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...).

United KingdomPaper thin pillows, maybe being from Britain we are in the minority with this, otherwise bed was really comfortable. Everyplace we stayed had the same type of pillow to be fair
Brilliant views, great breakfast, nice walk down to the city, quite steep but still nice the hotel had a path! Large room, chrome cast built in with tv so can watch a film on your favourite steaming service should you want to. Window open had a lovely fresh breeze, Only stayed one night so cant comment on anything else. Coffee machine, mini fridge with free water was nice!

Hong KongIt is a big hotel and all rooms are spread across 2 levels of long corridors. Not sure why it was designed in a way that there is no lift for guests and their suitcases. Do guests usually come without suitcases or they expect all guests are able to lift their suitcases to walk the stairs? There was a lift for staff use - and staff said we can use it for our luggages but it sounded like they are doing us a favour which is weird. Hotels like this should have a lift for guests and their suitcases even though it is not high storey building. And the hotel only has one restaurant - the Ruts. It was closed for holiday when we stayed but we were not informed ahead of time until we found out ourselves during breakfast. I cannot believe a hotel’s only restaurant is closed during holiday season without any back up plan. They do have a cafe but only offers burgers, salmon and chips and they have loads of guests during August. There should be a back up plan for the restaurant during holiday season instead of closing it.
Well designed. Clean and well equipped. Location is up the hills - could have great views but not in bad weather. Breakfast was great - both food and view. Complementary self service laundry is great.

ItalyThe geographic location tends towards driving in dangerous fog on mountain roads. The annex was fussy to stay in with no elevator. Shower a closet connected to the room. Overpriced.

NetherlandsIt's a 20 minute walk from the harbour and I suppose about the same time by car. View from the hotel is (therefor) great, so is the breakfast and recently the hotel has a superb restaurant ('Ruts') serving seafood and great vegetarian food. And the latter is rare on the Faroe Islands! Hotel is one of the older hotels but it's well kept. Only the bathroom shows slight signs of use. Stayed in this hotel a couple of times. First time was in 2015.

Portugalthe window of our room didn’t close fully and there was always a crack letting wind in. it wasn’t a deal breaker for us but these things should be fixed. the Booking website advertised this as a “king size bed” but after the reservation the hotel informs that ALL beds are made up of 2 individual mattresses put together - false advertising here, not sure who to blame, the hotel or Booking.
it’s a good location, not to far in the centre of the city but close enough to drive every day. comfy beds and clean bathrooms. a great view of the city although the fog sometimes covered it. helpful staff and good breakfast with a wide variety of food. big parking space
