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...).

United KingdomBecause of the shape of the building, the rooms (certainly ours) only have internal widows to a central area, so limited light. Breakfast OK, but not much choice.
Nice, quirky little hotel.Location very convenient, particularly for the waterfront & the excellent museum. Spacious, comfortable room. Staff very friendly & helpful.

United States of AmericaIf you are a light sleeper, this is absolutely not the place for you. After complaining about the noise level of room 101 (motorcyles revving all night, Salah broadcast from the mosque across the street, and street cleaners using leaf blowers starting at 6am) I was moved to the quietest suite in the building and it was still pretty noisy. If you are booked in either 101 or 102, I would immediately ask for a new room, you'd have to be deaf or in a coma to get through the night there.
The staff were absolutely amazing. I had a problem with the first room I was assigned and they not only promptly moved me, but when they saw how long I was staying they upgraded me to a suite as well. Breakfast was very good, but go with the local option instead of the western ones. The facilities were spotlessly clean, housekeeping was always extremely prompt, and the front desk staff was always very helpful with great suggestions. Incredibly convenient location, although keep in mind the noise level of the bustling city.

GermanyVery nice and helpful staff, a very tasteful hotel interior, everything was very suitable. The room climate in particular could be adjusted to a pleasant level without the air from the air conditioning constantly blowing into your face. That was a big advantage. The bed and mattress were super comfortable. Room and bathroom facilities are above average. Very central location.

AustriaOur room faced the street, which unfortunately was very noisy. Sleeping without earplugs was not possible. When booking, it's definitely worth requesting a room facing away from the street. The breakfast could have been more varied. As is often the case in Asia, vegetarian options were rare.
A very nice hotel right on the promenade. Great interior design, everything feels very harmonious and peaceful. The room was spacious, comfortable bed, and everything you need. Beautiful bathroom with all the necessary amenities.

BruneiHonestly i live everything, I don’t find anything bad to say and review about my stay there. It was all too well but the water heater didn’t heat up the water. Brr brr brr cold shower it is.
I like the interior design concept of Ranee boutique hotel. A harmony of traditional with a touch of modernity. My room lounge was spacious, i am super delighted that the hotel go on the extra mile by introducing nespresso machine and capsule to get my day start off with a shot of espresso. There are no worries in sleeping at night in comfort knowing the A/C is functioning well and properly maintained.
