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.).

NorwayI would have liked the room to have more space for luggages. We had 2 big luggages which was impossible to open at the same time, unless you put the luggages on the bed.
Location: it's 3 stops from Paddington station. The location itself is not so busy compared to other central stations. Location is served by the Bakerloo line which pretty much gets you to the main stations like Picadilly and Oxford. Bus stops are just right in front of the hotel and across the street depending on which direction you're heading, like bus 98 to and from Oxford Circus. Bed was comfortable, and the shower size is bigger compared to other average london hotels. There is a cafe/restaurant just beside the hotel. Tesco and Starbucks are just right across the street.

United KingdomThe pillows were lumpy and as hard as the mattress. The corridors smelled like eggs and the room smelled like someone had smoked in there previously. All rooms are in the basement, so no windows. The room was boiling and the A/C was turned off for winter. The extractor fan in the bathroom was SO loud! The shower floor was slippy and there was no shower-matt provided. The kettle didn't work, so we couldn't use the tea and coffee making facilities. Personally, I didn't like the full wall of mirrors, although that's down to my preference, and I understand they were in there to maximise the light. The TV was round the corner from the bed, with no other seating area this seemed strange. Picky, but I would have liked an iron/ironing board in the room.
It was clean and check in was fast. Very close to a tube station and the Tesco Metro on the opposite side of the road was well stocked and opened early till late. The hotel seemed clean and fairly freshly decorated throughout, without so much as a chip in any paint from what I saw. The mattress was nice and firm, this may be a negative for some, but we loved it. Tea and coffee making facilities were provided, more on that later. Lots of plug sockets. The restaurant upstairs looked good, but we didn't try it. Lots of cost hangars in the cupboard.

IrelandThe floor of the bathroom shower wasn't very clean. However the staff left everything clean in the bathroom every time they did room service. We couldn't open the window because there was a second window completely sealed on the wall and the room was a bit warm at night. We also couldn't regulate the thermostat inside the bedroom, it didn't work. The walls are too thin, we could hear the people in the other bedrooms talking.
The location was good. Two underground stations nearby plus several bus stops around. Our bedroom was overlooking the main avenue but it wasn't noisy.

BelgiumFirst room we got had a terrible noise coming from,what I think, an outside HVAC unit that turned on and off (pretty loud) every few minutes. So no sleep at all that first night. We complained about this and because we also had a leak in the bathroom that caused the carpet in the room to be wet...we got to switch rooms. Also things like no hairdryer and no fuse boxes near the bed as booked where present. Second night was even worse when the fire alarm went off at 0h40 for about 2 minutes and then stopped. I had read this in other reviews so we stayed in the room....so did all the other guests. No one from the hotel came to the rooms to explain. From the reviews it seems that management is blaming smokers or vapers but they should warn guests before check in about this and what the effect will be for the entire hotel! So again not much sleep this night. The HVAC in this room was not working at all so the smell in the room was not very pleasant. As most rooms have no windows and no fresh air can come in...this seems a huge problem. We did get some sleep the 3rd night but a lot of shuffeling chairs and stuff from the restaurant late and also again early. Cleaning was not very well done, stains on the bedsheets, stains on the mirrors, shower full of water stains. All and all not worth the price even if it is one of the cheaper ones in the area...will not come back or recommend to anyone.
Location is very good...far enougy from any busy places but close enough to underground and bus to reach the top places. Staff was friendly enough. Coffee and tea in the room. Bed and pillow where fine.
