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.).

United KingdomWhen we booked, we booked a twin bed room. We were upgraded, which we massively appreciated, but the upgraded room was a king bed and sofa bed. There was no extra bedding for the sofa bed so we called down to Reception. They brought up the extra bedding 20 minutes later and asked when we made this request as they couldn't see it on the booking. We explained about the upgrade and that we didn't know we'd need extras, the staff seemed a bit off-put by this but didn't query us further. The upgrade was great but didn't reflect the bed preferences that we originally booked.
My friend and I stayed for her birthday and we were unexpectedly upgraded to a family suite, and given 2x free drinks vouchers for the bar downstairs. The room was spacious and equipped with lots of amenities and freebies which we really appreciated. It was conveniently located right beside Tower Hill station and bus stops, making it easy for accessing public transport. The staff were lovely and made this birthday stay extra special.

Not only did we get a good deal but we also got an upgrade. The room was really spacious and we had a view of the Tower Bridge. We did really take advantage of the facilities because it was just a short trip but the gym looked pretty good.

Excellent stay. The location of the hotel is just perfect near by everything and at the same time far from street noise. You can walk 2 min to the bus or the train station and 1 min walk to the London tower and the tower bridge. Since we had a small issue in the first room provided the hotel staff did immediately upgraded us to another room. Rooms are specious compared to other London hotels' rooms with excellent large and comfortable bed. Definitely back again!

United KingdomThe only downside to this particular room was a fair amount of noise in the early hours from a nearby bar. I suppose that's to be expected in that area.
Excellent breakfast - paid for separately - with very friendly and attentive staff. Excellent range of foods. The room was large and comfortable and well equipped. Everything went very well - service in particular was exceptional. Thank you.

United KingdomQuite noisy in the morning when other guests were having a loud conversation in the corridor with each other pre 7am! Could hear everything! The remote control in our room was quite dirty! Definitely needs cleaning, possibly an oversight.
The location was perfect for what we had planned and not far from an underground station. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, can’t fault them!

United KingdomWe booked 2 rooms as accompanied by friends. We paid exactly the same but although our room was clean and comfortable it was smaller than our friends room and had a tiny window.looking out onto a brick wall.Their room was at the front with a lovely view and huge window and a bigger bathroom.Thought it should be like for like as we paid the same amount for our stay.A little disappointed.
Great location,excellent service and very clean hotel.

United KingdomCouldn’t fault it
The hotel was so convenient just a few minutes walk from the tube, the room felt luxurious with slippers and dressing gown provided for our stay, we were celebrating my daughters 25th and the staff did an extra happy birthday plate with macarons which my daughter loved. Edwin the duck was also a great keepsake. We had a slight issue with our tv not connecting but after a call to reception it was sorted in 5 minutes. All the staff were lovely and helpful and made us feel very welcome and we will definitely return
