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...).

LatviaWonderful, cozy, beautiful hotel with the best location. We were in Istanbul for the third time. And this time we were very lucky with the hotel. This hotel was a little bit more expensive than the othes, but the price corresponds to the quality: The staff is the most welcoming and friendly I have ever met! The receptionists were always ready to help with everything I was asking them - dry cleaning, ironing, transfers. I was very pleased with the work of the staff. (Guys, sorry, I completely forgot your names! But you are the best!) Workers in the cafeteria are the most cheerful people in the world. Breakfast is delicious and varied. We were there for 7 days and never got bored. The chef makes an amazing omelette. You have to pay extra for good coffee like latte or cappuccino - but it's worth it. Plus there is always free simple black coffee. I personally always drank local tea - 'bir bardak siyah çay' =) And my wife ordered a latte every time. The view from the terrace where we had breakfast was simply magnificent ! ! ! From one side - Bosphorus and the sunrise, from the other side the Blue Mosque and seagulls on the roofs. The location of the hotel is excellent - 5 minutes to the Blue Mosque. The area is good, not too noisy, but also safe. There is a 24-hour store nearby, where I was always buying something tasty. And you can’t count how many shops and good restaurants there are nearby. We don't like to stay in the same hotel if we're returning to a city we've already been to. But here I would probably make an exception and would happily stay in this wonderful hotel again! Thank you so much, Darussade hotel staff! Thank you, cleaning lady, restaurant chef and waiters, all the receptionists, Georgian chef-woman, who made amazing Russian salad "селёдка под шубой" on the 1st of January! You are amazing, guys! - çok teşekkür ederim -

GermanyWell the isolation of this older building is kind of bad, you'll hear every noise, so don't forget your ear plugs. Has nothing to do with the hotel but it's kind of annoying that you're getting asked the whole time to buy something, to come into a store, a restaurant, etc. as soon as you're leaving the hotel.
Nice, unique and authentic hotel in the historic district of Istanbul, just 3 minutes of walking to the Hagia Sophia. The staff was great and the breakfast was amazing with an stunning view over Istanbul. It was exactly the experience we were looking for, not a super modern European hotel with continental breakfast but a charming Turkey place.

United KingdomThe breakfast is on the rooftop and the view over mosques as well as the sea was absolutely amazing. The room is not super large but given its price and the excellent services, cleanliness etc. I would say it is definitely a nice stay. The first day I checked in at 230am and there were staff helping us out!
