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...).

SwedenSound isolation between the room is poor. I have ear plugs thus was not critical for me.
The location is great, and the main sightseeing points in walking distance. Breakfast has a fair selection, but who cares what is breakfast when you have an amazing sea view? Water, coffee and tea are available 24 hours. The personal is very helpful and kind.

SerbiaBreakfast is not very varied
Everything was wonderful. Good location, terrace with breakfast overlooking the sea. Breakfast is not very varied, but it was enough for me. Close to the main attractions in the historical center. There are quiet streets nearby with cafes and restaurants where there is no hand-pulling; people preferred to have lunch and dinner close to the hotel, away from the bustle of the center. Very friendly and helpful staff. We liked everything very much, we will happily stay at this hotel again

United States of AmericaNot a dealbreaker for us, but we stayed there for 5 days and the breakfast spread stayed consistent, which can be monotonous. It’s an impressive breakfast that is included in the stay, so can’t complain. It fueled us for the long days.
Great location. 10-15 minutes walk to all the major sites in Sultanamet. Hotel is well-maintained, and one of the few boutique hotels in the area that have an elevator which was helpful with luggage. Terrace has a lovely view to the Sea of Marmara, where one can enjoy their elaborate breakfast spreads. Rooms are on the slightly smaller side but that’s with all the boutique hotels in the area, and add to the charm of staying in this historic city. Despite it not being a large room, it felt spacious enough with plenty of lighting and details in the room. Bathrooms and rooms have been renovated so it feels very clean and well-maintained. The concierge is available 24/7 to assist you with anything you may need, including booking us tickets to activities and airport transfer.

ChinaThis is our first time visiting Istanbul, and we were very satisfied with the Saruhan Hotel. We even adjusted our plan and stayed for an extra two days. The manager and other staff were very patient and helped us answer various questions. The breakfast was delicious, and the rooftop terrace view was amazing. The entire hotel decoration was very tasteful. I love this hotel, and next time I come to Istanbul, I would like to stay at this hotel.

RomaniaI have nothing to complain about. Everything was perfect!
The Saruhan Hotel in Istanbul was perfect in every way! We were completely satisfied with the level of comfort provided and the spacious and beautiful rooms we stayed in. Breakfast was delicious with a generous variety of options to suit all tastes. Although all the rooms were nice, the sea view ones were really great. The hotel is located close to the city's main points of interest, which made exploring much easier and more convenient. The hotel staff was extremely friendly and always prompt in helping us when we had requests or questions. I highly recommend Hotel Saruhan and will definitely be back here in the future!

HungaryOne thing can be disturbing. If your room is on the top floor, just under the rooftoop, where they serve breakfast, you can be disturbed by the noises from 6.15am, when they start preparing it. The insulation of the rooms are not very good.
It is a very good, friendly small hotel not far from the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. The breakfast is really good and the staff is very kind and flexible.
