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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Aircon did not function. The lift does not stop on the floor level and one has to carry the luggage up to the rooms. The breakfast is very modest - either full English or oat meal.
Location is perfect and very comfortable for city walks. The hotel itself is a normal small London hotel.

If you didn't want a 'full English' the breakfast was a bit limited. The building is one of those big 4 storey terraced houses that's been converted, so it's pretty quirky - we had fun with electrical connections but the people on duty were very helpful. I think I expected more for the price, but I guess that's London for you.
Stayed with my husband for two nights. The location was perfect for us - lots of things to do within walking distance but easy access to buses and tube. Staff were great - very helpful and flexible.

Some of the fittings are a little tired, but no more than you'd expect in a busy London hotel (in fact rather less than you might expect given the price).
I've stayed here a couple of times now, and it's a wee gem - very comfortable rooms in an unbeatable location, two minutes from Madame Tussaud's. My rooms have been small but well-appointed, with everything you need, and decent aircon too. The beds are lovely and firm. There are some nice little touches throughout the building (book exchange, ice machine, etc.). The bar looks very comfortable (though I didn't try it); the cooked breakfast was great. All in all, excellent value for money, especially for a short business trip.

The room was quiet but not well insulated. The bathroom was very new but the heater couldn´t heat up the room as it was cold and the window was not insulated. The breakfast is ok. The coffee is undrikable, tea, cooked breakfast and cereals were ok. The service is very helpful and the location is very nice.

I think the water pressure in the shower could have been stronger. I would also recommend a shower mat because it was slippery in the shower.
The staff was very nice. We liked the location because it was close to many restaurants, cafes, and sights. It was just down the street from Madame Tussaud’s. Our breakfast the first morning was good.
