Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

ItalyPillows were a bit too soft. The same hotel also has a pub/restaurant at night, so the corridor can be a bit noisy, especially over the weekend.
Nice hotel, very close to the cathedral and the city centre. The area has a lot of facilities as restaurants, bars and shops. For people who do not have breakfast included, there is a Starbucks 5 minutes away from the hotel and a nice Thai restaurant just crossing the street in front of the hotel entrance. The room was very clean with a big glass shower box and a comfortable bed. The pillows were a bit too soft, but overall stay has been more than satisfying

United KingdomCurtains were light and it was just a light blind at sink window so the light woke us early.
Near the train station (10 min walk) Lovely modern room. Very comfy bed. Bars and restaurants nearby. We were given a token each for a free beer in the bar next door. Beer tap in the room which you can get them to supply with beer for a fee.( we had only 2 nights there so didn't use) We paid for breakfast 1 day and it was nice, good selection of food

United KingdomThere really wasn't much not to like. We had one tiny problem while we were there, which we just put down to a misunderstanding due to language. We hadn't booked any breakfasts before arrival as we wanted to see what was in the area before committing. For day 2 onwards we decided to breakfast at the hotel (for convenience as we were out and about fairly early to do all the touristy things). We ordered and paid for breakfast for the rest of the duration of our stay. What we didn't know (and wasn't pointed out when we booked) was that breakfasts aren't available on Mondays. Monday being our last day, a breakfast before departing the hotel would have been much easier for us. The lovely chap on reception made a few recommendations for places nearby that were excellent and we were fully refunded for the missing meal when we checked out. As I mentioned above though, I believe it was a communication error due to language and not something to be held against the hotel in any way - more a case to be aware that they don't offer breakfast on Mondays.
The rooms was fresh, clean and well laid out for our purposes. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. They all spoke very good English too, which helped us as my German isn't very good, although I do speak a little. Location wise, it's above a bar/restaurant/brewery and near to some busy junctions and public transport hub for bus and tram, so don't expect it to be quiet. That said, it was all "happy" noises with people enjoying themselves laughing and chatting in the bar. There are a number of useful places very nearby - a selection of cafes/restaurants, a couple of local shops and a very good Ice Cream place. Access to transport couldn't be easier as it's mostly just over the road. It's a 10-15 min walk from the main station (or 3 stops on a no 5 Ubahn with a 3 min walk to the hotel once you get off). Heumarkt is just beyond the public transport hub and has many very good eateries. Overall, it's a lovely location to use as a base to get around.

United Arab EmiratesThey don't change the room sheets and towels daily, due to their sustainability initiatives. If you do want it, you have to ask for it. It didn't bother us, so we didn't ask. Not really a negative, but it's essential to know. It would be nice if they had a fridge.
Excellent location and very easy to walk to all the main attractions in Cologne. The staff were very pleasant and even gave us some complimentary beer coupons. The rooms were cozy, well-designed (maybe renovated), and well-lit, with large windows. Some reviews complained about noise from the bars below, but we stayed on the weekend when the bars were full, and we were not disturbed at all.

AustraliaNot much to say here, I really had no negative thoughts whilst I stayed.
The hotel exceeded my expectations. Old in charm but everything you need for a comfortable stay. The staff couldn't be more helpful and the brewery connected to the hotel is a must visit for a meal and beverage at the end of the day. The location is right on the edge of the old part of town with everything within easy walking distance. The Koln Messe is 2 easy stops from the Strasse Bahn which is basically across the street. This will be my new home for the future when visiting Koln. Neil - Australia
