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...).

United KingdomI had to use out of the room bathroom facilities in order not to disturb the room mates. It could be practical to have some hooks on the bathroom doors for the heavy rucksack. Thanks.
I have arrived after midnight and there was no problem to check in. Location was great, very close to Kings Cross train station.

FranceThe lockers under the beds are not very convenient, it would be better to have "vertical" lockers. There is no plug near a mirror, so it's not convenient if you want to do your hair. I was kind of disappointed that you have to pay to leave your baggage if you arrive before checking-in.
The facilities were very clean. I was in a room with 5 other girls: the room were spacious enough and the bathroom was cleaned every morning. The staff was very friendly. The bar downstairs that also serves pizza is very convenient if you don't feel like eating out after a long day. Great location.

United KingdomNoise. Black mark on pillow. People coming in at different times, ine person the window, the next person shutting the window. One person arrived noisily at 12.30 and then smelling very strongly of alcohol continued to bang around for an hour. Then the next person arrived at 2am. It would be too hot in summer as with the window open the noise is bad. The moral of the story is, don't get a shared room unless you sleep like a log. I managed to get about 2 hours sleep total.
The location was good with easy access to St Pancras and King's Cross. The bathroom was clean. The bar looked nice. The room itself was clean

GermanyThe bathroom was a bit old already. There were cracks in the floor and it was very complicated to close the door. Unfortunately you also can't place your things anywhere in the bathroom. Besides that the hostel is also a bit expensive.
The hostel's location is amazing. It is very close to the train stations St Pancras and King's Cross. There are also many tube lines which can be reached very easily. I also liked the beds there. They were not squeaking with every move and the blanket was warm and cozy.

United KingdomAs always when you share a room with others, there is at least one snorer and one person who acts as if they are alone in this world. One person woke up at 5am and decided to spend 45 minutes getting ready and acting as if there was no one else in the room. But there's nothing the hotel management can do about that. It wasn't worse than a night back home with the cats, to be honest...
Ideal location, friendly staff, welcoming place (nice wee café on the ground floor with the reception). Bed was very comfortable, with very clean and soft bed sheets. The bunk beds had a proper solid frame, which means that they didn't squeak when people moved, which is excellent. There are nice clean shared spaces, and lockers in the rooms (bring a lock!) It felt safe. Nice very hot shower. The coffee and bakery are tasty. Excellent value for money.

SloveniaThe rooms get quite hot overnight. The main downside for me personally was that the check in time is quite late (4pm) and if you want to leave your bag and go out, you have to pay for each bag that you want to leave in the luggage room (which at the time of my stay was behind the reception counter).
Staff was kind and helpful, and the bed was comfortable.

United KingdomOur double room was a bit too warm and stuffy - we had to close the window when we went to bed because it's on a busy road. The room was very basic with no other furniture apart from the bed. Fine for one night though.
Great location for Euston and St Pancras. Friendly staff. Breakfast was available from 7:30, which was good for us as we had to get to the station soon after 8am. Cheaper than other accommodation options in the area.
