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 KingdomThey didn't gave extra blanket also bath towels were ripped. Also they should have their own breakfast place as they shown in photos but its in their hotel .The bosphorus sea view for breakfast is other hote.
The location, blue Mosque is just 2 to 3 minutes by walk.The breakfast was good for international standards and the the view of sea from the top roof,was beautiful just want to inform other travellers they don't have breakfast place so they tell you to go other hotel for breakfast but breakfast included in your hotel room price and you are not paying extra and i think they running business togather

EgyptWe were on a third floor with no lift. This like a boutique hotel or maybe a guest house, so the entrance isn’t very obvious. It took us ages asking the street and the whole neighborhood about it and nobody knew where It was. The reviews here on booking said that breakfast was in other hotel but fortunately was on top of the building with sultanahmet view, but when we asked for that, they said top floor breakfast is not available only downstairs breakfast is available, but to be honest, the staff at the breakfast restaurant were very sweet, caring and humble.
The staff, all of them are so adorable. The location is near to sultanahmet and ayasofia, but the area is very touristic and hence, very expensive. Try to have launch and dinner outside or takeaway from restaurants at other areas or malls. They have some souvenirs and touristic bazar around and nearby.

FranceWrong emplacement told by the reception first day for the breakfast so we took the breakfast in an other hostel on the underground. Then because we asked we've been the next day in the rooftop for the breakfast with the great view Pay of the bottle of water we took in the room whereas the reception told us it was free Room Chambers in appartment in front of the hostel Apart from that is was great 👍
Great localisation in the center of the historical city Great view for breakfast Room Chamber OK WiFi OK

South AfricaThere was nothing not to like. For the purpose of it being a room to keep my belongings and shower it was perfect.
There is so much to like about the Hippodrome Hotel. 1. The staff if amazingly friendly and will bed oer backwards to help you meet your needs. 2. It is extremely close to the Suleiman Square thusall the main tourist attractions are walking distance. 3. The room had everything I needed for my stay which was a comfortable, clean bed with fresh bedding daily. A spacious enough bathroom with a big shower. Everything was cleaned daily. .4. Breakfast was served daily at another hotel across the road while they were busy renovations. I was fortunate enough to have a room with a balcony which had an amazing view of the Bosphorus, harbor as well as the Blue Mosque. All in all this hotel was absolutely perfect for my holiday. The photos provided are an accurate representation of the rooms and what you can expect. I will highly consider booking this same hotel again if I visit Istanbul in the future.
