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.).

IrelandBeing sent to another Hotel that was under Construction both inside and out! Drilling from 9am in the morning. The Central Park Hotel. Corridors near the rooms are a shock when you see the old unfinished wood drilled to the actualy walls and dated carpet. I think its such a let down you book a weekend away and you are staying somewhere you did not pay for.
Location was ideal until we were told we couldnt stay in the Hotel we paid for. INSTEAD were sent to their sister Hotel 12 mins walk away with our suitcases in tow! Althought staff were very kind and apologetic i discovered it seemed to be a regular occurence when guests arrive and are sent on their way! Complimentary breakfast was the olive branch and late checkout. But should have been given the room we paid for at thrme location we paid for

United StatesThere was only one plug that worked in both rooms, none in the bathroom. Beds were very uncomfortable and rooms dated. They placed us in the basement which was unexceptable and small for 3. The shower was nice but very slippery
Stephan the bar tender and coffee guy was so excellent and friendly. The gentlemen that got us in a room better suited for 3 people was very Professional

BulgariaWe paid extra money for the upgrade of our room which I didn't conform during our conversation here. If I insisted to be in the twin room, I would have upgraded it by myself when I saw the option in booking.com for less. When we passed through a room on our floor we heard sudden scream which scared us. We didn't have toilet brush in our bathroom.
The room has been cleaned every day. The beds were comfortable. We had beautiful view. The location of the hotel is amazing - 3-4 min walk to the underground and the train station. There were some supermarkets near the hotel. The area around is nice, clean and calm.

AustraliaThe rediculous rule that you can't take a visitor to your room. Is this even legal? I understand you can't have a visitor overnight, but during the day? Sadly, having stayed there three times now, this will be my last.
Proximity to Paddington Station.

CroatiaThe rooms are a bit small, although we didn't think that was a problem. It's quite noisy due to the fact that the subway runs under the hotel (I think). Also, there's only one wall socket that we managed to find. The matress is a spring matress and it definitely needs changing because some of the springs are quite uncomfortable. I think the bathroom should have some shelves to put your things because there weren't any in ours.
The location is perfect, right next to Paddington station from which you can go basically anywhere in the city. Also the breakfast is good value for the price, in comparison to some other breakfast places nearby. The food is good and unlimited, as well as the drinks. Also, the staff is very polite and we had a clean room every day with new towels and linen. I read that people had cold water, but we didn't have any problems with the shower.
