Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

SingaporeWas never in favour of their bathroom taps (one knob for hot water and another knob for cold water). It was very difficult to moderate the water temperature. Similarly, the bathtub is rather high to climb into. It would’ve been great if there are room options with standing shower bays instead to make it safer for elderly.
Had a subpar experience 9 months ago and was glad to find that the hotel had made some improvements to make my current stay a more pleasant one. The service of the staff was superb and very friendly. Their English proficiency was excellent as well. The toilet was finally fitted with a bidet and room was very clean.

CanadaI had to pay extra (not much) to get a room with a view of garden. The room I was given looked straight into the building next door. Very close.
It was a perfect area to walk to everything we wanted to see. Palaces, Buchon area, with street vendors everywhere and loads of coffee shops.

AustraliaThe bed unfortunately. Very hard and difficult to sleep in, subsequent hotel in Japan was same, hard.
Room clean and comfortable. Staff lovely and very helpful, breakfast each morning was good and staff friendly and happy to chat. Location was great, walking distance to the two palaces where we spent our first day. Taxis were great to travel around Seoul. It was so helpful to have a washer drier in the room, we were able to do our laundry before moving on. Hotel also had a small convenience store which we used several times and a restaurant, I have been to Italy before but this restaurant made the best lasagne I have ever had yum!

SingaporeThere is no room cleaning service and change of towels on every Sunday and there is no Air Con in the room during the spring season. The food choices available for breakfast served in this facility are limited day by day. You might get bored with the food choices when you have breakfast for five consecutive days or more.
The room have a great view of the Gyeongbokgung Palace and its surrounding. There is a billiards table and children playing room on the second floor of this service apartment. The counter staff are very courteous and provide very fast and efficient services. This service apartment is located near the Insadong and Gyeongbokgung Palace area.

South KoreaNot much of a view despite being on a high floor. The room was at 26 degrees Celsius when we arrived and remained at 23 Celsius at bed time; I didn't see an a/c remote. Noise from the wind was loud in the room. Mattress for the single bed was too firm. Temperature in the breakfast restaurant was also too warm.
Great location and spacious, clean accomodations. I only briefly heard neighboring guests. Parking was easy and early parking was accomodated. Reception desk was friendly. Breakfast staff was attentive and coffee was good. Enjoyed the pool table and fitness room.

United States of AmericaThe hotel is a bit dated which wasn't a problem for us, however, there was a large spot on the carpet in the main bedroom and the wooden floor in the living room area was very scratched up. There were also some spots from water damage on the ceiling and some loose texture/ bubbling.
We really liked the location of the hotel, near several palaces and areas that we wanted to see. We enjoyed the spaciousness of our room and that it had separate bedrooms, a kitchen, and a washing machine to do laundry. The staff was also very friendly and helpful, especially the staff running the breakfast area. The room was also very clean.

ThailandBreakfast was basic
The location of this hotel is very good due to the proximity to the Palace, a very famous Buddhist Temple and a shopping street with plenty of very nice restaurants and small shops. The room was big, very clean and comfy. All staff were friendly and very helpful to assist us e.g. to book taxis for sightseeing-tours outside of Seoul.

NetherlandsI wish they'd put toiletries in the room when a guest arrives (there was no body soap in the bathroom when I checked in). The staff wasn't as proactive as I would have hoped they'd be when I requested their help with booking another night at the hotel after my flight was cancelled.
Amazing location, comfortable bed, nice facilities (swimming pool, jacuzzi, lounge, pool). They clean the room daily.
