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.).

United KingdomNo issues although
Perfect location in the old town, big room (Deluxe One Room) over looking St Gille's Cathedral and just down the hill from the castle. The room/apartment was very well equipped with a lounge area and kitchenette- tea/coffee (milk and water in fridge on arrival), cooking hob, washing machine and dishwater . A/C. Staff were friendly and very helpful.

United KingdomI did not enjoy the various codes that you needed to remember to enter the building from the back and to enter the room. I would have preferred a key. I also didn’t enjoy the strongly scented products found in the facilities.
The location was incredible and the facilities were very clean.

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike, we loved staying!!
We loved everything, the decor, the comfortable bed, the bathroom, the kitchenette was well equipped, especially liked the fact you provided fresh milk in the fridge and coffee pods, with a selection of teas, additional blankets, fresh towels each day. The views to St Giles Cathedral. Brilliant location, close to our favourite restaurant The Witchery by the Castle. We would love to stay again when we’re next up for business/work combined with meeting up with family! Really impressed with the accommodation.

KuwaitThe extreme cold weather of Edinburgh.
The location, the ambience, the technology, the staff, the breakfast...almost everything Need a hotel in Edinburgh old town? Seek no more... This is the outstanding spot for you. All aspects will exceed your expectations....the location, the cleanliness, the services, the time preceding technology, the decoration and most of all the breakfast which is a la carte but what you get is certainly beyond expectations. The receptionists are all very elegant, smiling and welcoming, ready to render any assistance that you may require. On departure day i requested a late check-out and it was approved on the spot taking in consideration the busy touristic season at the time. The room is spacious and bright, the view is stunning, the cleanliness makes you feel you are the the first guest to use the room. Now for me...one of the main attractions of Edinburgh is Cheval old town.

AustraliaThis was our first accommodation for our European holiday, and boy did it set the bar! As soon as we arrived, staff were friendly and so helpful regarding recommendations, showing us our room and the facilities it had. We had the room that overlooked Edinburgh, which was amazing to go to sleep to every night. Bed comfy, shower and bath wonderful and the little sitting area to enjoy a tea and look out to the views was delightful. It was so close to everything too, which was a huge bonus while exploring. Could've easily spent more than 3 nights here. Thanks for having us. I hope to be back again in the near future!
