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...).

I love the fact that it is situated less than 5 mins. walk from Paddington station. The hotel’s got a lift which was a plus. The room is very clean, comfy bed, toilet was small, but i like compact rooms. Breakfast is also very good, the attendants are very courteous, you can ask them to cook eggs however you want. The staff are very friendly, helpful and polite. The free drinks at their sister bar was cool. There’s complimentary tea/ coffee/ water refill in the lounge area of the reception, though they are provided in the rooms. Safe to walk from the station. Lots of cafes and restos and grocery nearby. I’ll definitely book here again.

United KingdomThe new shower. Check the body hose isn't pointing at you and on cold when you turn it on. lol. That was my fault, but it didn't stay coming overhead, I kept having to push it in and hold it. It would also go a little cold at points. And the 2 strip lights on the bed wouldn't turn off, they would flash on and off. I took the card out the wall to switch off the electric. I am sure if I would have mentioned this at front desk, they would have sorted it, it was just late (for the lights) and I figured it out quickly and for the shower, I was heading out and only staying for 1 day. I didn't get the chance to mention it when leaving.
How accommodating they were. Not only did they fast track my room, they done their utmost to make sure my stay was easy, comfortable and friendly. I stayed in 1 of the recently refurbed rooms. Everyone on front desk were friendly and helpful. They room was spotless and the hotel was too. The breakfast was plentiful and good quality. For the money, this is now my go to when staying in the area for sure. It's beaten some of the bigger brands and once all refurbed, it am sure it will look great throughout.

United KingdomTerrible phone reception in the room, and the old non-double-glazed window didn't fit very well and there was quite a cold breeze blowing in all night. The room was pretty clean but there was somebody else's food still left in the fridge.
Good breakfast included and the room was fairly small and basic but had everything needed.
