Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

IrelandWould have enjoyed tea/coffee facilities in the room. There was a kettle but no coffee, tea, sugar. And would of been great to have some hair conditioner in the shower. Shower gel was provided. Would be great to provide a little bit of information in the room of various points around Vienna or even a little bit of the history of the hotel, we googled everything ourselves.
Hotel is centrally located. Breakfast was plentiful. Room was spacious, warm and cosy for 3 people. Receptionist was lovely and helpful. Room was cleaned during our two night stay. Shower pressure was amazing and water was hot so definitely very good after walking so much. Lift was very quirky and brought you back to the 1920s. Loved the novelty.

RomaniaNitpick, the room looked a bit old and the bathroom did not have a fan to remove the smells. It had a vent but not a fan but it's not that big a deal.
The location is dead center, right next to the parliament. Breakfast was excellent and diversified, it even had nutella spreads to *chefs kiss The room was gigantic with a really high ceiling. A bit old but that doesn't really matter. Clean

GermanyNothing during my stay. Given that it is an older building, I could see however that the rooms can get warm in the summer, especially on the higher floors.
The hotel room was as shown in the images on Booking, so no surprises there. I did get a free upgrade to a double room, which was much appreciated. Prior to the trip, I had also requested a second blanket and a quiet room, which the hotel both provided. I really appreciated the quiet room with double doors, and slept well. The bed was fairly narrow as shown in the images, and comfortable for me. People who like (very) soft mattresses may find them hard, however. The staff was always helpful, and reception was staffed during the day, as described in the hotel. I arrived after hours, but the key safe worked just fine. Breakfast was fine also and served as a buffet in the breakfast room. It is mostly a continental breakfast with fresh fruit salad, yogurt, cereal, breads and pastries, plus cheeses and deli meats. There are also scrambled eggs and Austrian breakfast links. More than plenty for most people. The elevator (1918!) is a must-see and a true antiquity, and I rode it as often as possible!!

Location beautiful - close to center and public transport. Breakfast beautiful - variable and delicious. Room small and clean. Interesting system of keys - never seen something like that. But we deal with that. beautiful pressure of water in shower and hot water comes really fast. Thank for staff attitude - staff was pleasant and positive. I like that.

The staff were obliging , the internet was free, the breakfast was good and there was a kettle in the room. Best of all, there was a bench IN THE LIFT, which itself is well worth seeing ! Just like in the grand, old, days ! We rode up and down even when we did not need to !
