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.).

United KingdomThe check in was very slow… …. The receptionist though very pleasant appeared to be new and did not have anyone to refer to when unable to answer questions. We would have liked to have a pre dinner drink at the bar, but no one answered the bell or came to serve us. Although we returned to the bar later before closing it was all shut up. This created a satellite feeling for our stay as we did not feel any of the communal areas, although inviting on a decor basis, were being used for congregational purposes.
Car parking space, room, location were all up to expectations, the photos fitted the reality, we were pleased.

LuxembourgThe room was well appointed and very clean. An upholstered chair and a desk with a desk chair. In room coffee and a bottle of water awaited us. The bed was very comfortable and we had a small balcony above the street. We had a seperate powder room from the bathroom which was nice. The bathroom had shampoo, conditioner, bath gell, bar soap, and lotion and both a shower and a tub. The breakfast was tremendous. Fresh eggs, bacon, sausages, and an array of meats, cheeses, pastries and fruit.

United KingdomNothing. Little more information about car parking locations would have helped as we ended up in an underground car park further away than we would have liked. May have been our fault as a fairly last minute booking and didn’t have the chance to research.
The room, bed and the wonderful chandelier. And a full sized bath. The spa and well-being rooms was a fabulous birthday treat. Reception staff were lovely. I enjoyed it was adults only with a wide range of ages and nationalities. Breakfast was amazing and I can’t imagine anyone not finding something they didn’t like.Huge choice of foods and drinks. The swivel chairs in the reception rooms were so comfortable and tactile while we had a bed time tipple chatting to other guests. Location was great and near to centre attractions.

GermanyThe were only two things that were a little underwhelming. The fact, that the showers had super low water pressure and the water took a couple of minutes tilll it was even a little warm. And parking spots from the hotel are very very limited. We had to park in a parking garage. The garage was only roughly 400 meters far away, but it did cost us around 70€ extra for a 4 days stay.
The rooms were very tidy and very comfortable. The interior was very pleasing to look at as well. A good feature was, that the air conditioning was working also, when you left the room. The breakfast had plenty of options and we never had to wait in a huge line or something like this. It just takes a couple of minutes by foot from the hotel to the city centre of Brugge.

NetherlandsThe room they gave us was twin bed room and we wanted double bed but then the staff made that twin bed as double bed which was a bit uncomfortable but manageable.
Best thing about this property is the location it is 2 min walk from the main square and all the famous spots are on walking distance, room was decent and we really liked the hotel building and interior as it is a historical building. Well maintained, good staff.
