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.).

ArmeniaThis was the smallest room I’ve ever seen in a hotel : )) It was ok for me cause I didn’t have luggage, but if you have luggage then you’ll struggle😅 The Wifi was not good There was no toothbrush and toothpaste set in the room There was a phone in the room but no instruction on how to call the reception :) so I had to go down to the reception if I wanted something
The location was perfect, so close to the main station, Cathedral and shopping streets The room was clean, heating system was working well and it was generally comfortable for a short stay It was a good stay for a couple of nights, It would’ve been nice if they had tea/coffee service in the rooms

ItalyA little bit expensive, considering the room size. However, we didn't book in advance, so maybe we payed a little more for being walk-ins.
Very good position, quite and nice area, near to the train station, to the river and to the shopping area. The staff was helpful, especially the lady who gave me valuable shopping advice! :-)

NetherlandsMy main light in the room was not working, and I was told that they could only call someone to fix it on Monday. The room was basic and really expensive for one night with no breakfast included.
Great location, very centrally located, which made it easy to get around. I booked a single room which was small but doable for one night.

UkraineRooms are very small and let's say difficult to open door to the bathroom when room door is opened. Not enough hooks for clothes. No hooks for towels in bathroom Overall, everything is OK, but not comparing to the price. We stayed in city twice during week, next time chose another hotel in same location and it was cheaper and better comparing to current
Location is very good, also they provide free mini bar and vouchers for a free beer in their restaraunt. Unfortunately it was closed due to Christmas holidays

TurkeyRoom was super clean!! looked exactly the same in the pictures. Might seem small but it was more than enough for one person anyway. I enjoyed the complimentary drink, thanks again. Staff is super nice and helpful. Very well organized for a family owned hotel in the hearth of the city. Its right next to a Christmas market and a short walking distance to 3 others, which i enjoyed the most. Street wasnt loud. Definitely would stay again.

South AfricaThe space is very small. The bathroom in particular is extremely cramped & we kept knocking the walls when trying to move about in it. The carpet was full of bleached stains which didn’t give a good impression. The room could do with a little bit of care, there was a hole in the sheer curtain, the carpet had several bleach stains on it which didn’t give a good impression, our safe wasn’t open & also didn’t get opened even after we asked. The pillows were awful & thin. Could definitely use an upgrade. The duvets too were thin & there was no other blanket available, we were also told that it might cost extra to request an extra blanket, which seemed very unusual for us! Considering it was winter we were quite cold the first night, until the heating had time to kick in. Then it ended up being ok.
The location was great, although being so close to the the heumarkt Christmas market as well as a brauhaus & an irish pub there’s a fair amount of noise going past. But it doesn’t present a problem later in the evening thankfully. The staff were very friendly & mostly helpful. The breakfast is ok, not amazing but definitely good, and they do have a fair selection. The room & bathroom was clean.

Close to the train station, short walk. Smallish room on the 4th floor. Lift goes up to the third floor, can be tricky if you had heavy luggage to get up by stairs to fourth floor. Ideal to walk around Cologne by foot . Comfy bed. Ideal for short one or two night stay
