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...).

BulgariaThe bathroom was too small. The breakfast didn't worth the money. It was served in the basement, in a very small room. The coffee was awful.
Great location! It is near the station, very easy to find and at very pleasant surrounding. The staff were friendly, polite and very helpful. We were 2 adults and 1 child and stayed in a room for 4 people. The room was big enough and the beds were comfortable.

EstoniaDidn't enjoy the breakfast. It was in the basement, really hot and no air. The poor lady who was serving was also cleaning and cooking. And the breakfast itself wasn't worth the money. On the second morning we ate somewhere else.
The location is superb, just around the corner from Paddington station and Hyde park.

FinlandThe pictures in booking did not represent the room's bathroom! The bathroom was a plastic toilet+shower where the toilet lid was always falling on my back and the drain was smelly. There were people coming into the room and knocking and we're on the wrong door a couple of times. All the floors were crooked in the house. Pictures were wrong and I highly doubt they have a sauna like in the photos. Also their security with passwords was clearly not good because before coming their account sent us a scam and I had to send booking a message about it.
Nice people at the reception.

EstoniaNot too many breakfast options. The room was in the basement floor, it did not have a view and the noise from the street came through the window. It was a decent accommodation for an one-night stay, but I would not stay there for a longer holiday.
The hotel was well-reachable by public transport. The staff were nice. The room was decent, English breakfast was a classic one.

United KingdomNo decaf coffee available, in every hotel I've stayed at there has always been decaf available in the rooms and at breakfast. To be fair though it is also on me as I could have stated before hand i don't drink any caffeine. Breakfast was dreadful. Their idea of a full English was an egg, about a spoonful of beans, a hash brown, a sausage that had the texture of cardboard and a piece a bacon that was like chewing rubber.
Room was perfect for a our 2 night stay. Not something for a long stay though

AustraliaThe initial room we were in was cramped with a very tiny ensuite and had a damp smell that got quiet intense. However the reception staff corrected this and moved us to an alternative room. The alternative room was a good size for 3 people and lacked that damp smell.
The staff, there were two reception staff who were very helpful. This included a multitude of things from organising parking, giving directions, providing assistance with ordering taxis and how to use the underground and moving luggage. The breakfast staff ensured the breakfast room was well stocked and clean and cooked a hot breakfast in record time.
