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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 KingdomIt's not a fault of the property, but unfortunately I had to leave early to get to the airport and wasn't able to enjoy the breakfast offering.
This was a fine stay in a well located and beautiful apartment in a beautiful part of Copenhagen.

BelgiumWhat is not to like!?
How about sleeping in a museum? A bit like "Night at the museum" without the scarry bit. Best part is, you get a guide, Esben, always eager to talk to you about his art pieces. You will see original micro mosaic from Vatican workshop, medieval Japanese spears (named Yari), work by Jacques Callot... If you need more convincing, the neighbourhood is very calm, you have your own balcony, and you can see the canal! You even have breakfast in the morning with excellent tea. I would definitely recommend staying at Esben's.

CroatiaEverything except of the price is great. For us the price is too much for this type of accommodation (shared apartment), but I guess this is just Kopenhagen :)
Great communication with the owner, easy to find, very good location, you can do everything on foot from the flat, clean and comfortable. We were able to bring our bags earlier and leave them longer on the day that we left.

HungaryThe bedding and the size of the bed was not my favorite but for one night, it's adequate. The bedroom can't be fully darkened, so who likes the complete darkness in the morning, be prepared with an eye mask.
The breakfast was decent and very good quality. The owner served it in a wonderful setup, the glassware was extraordinary.

LatviaIt may be a bit unclear from the description but you’re staying with the host. You have a private room but share the bathroom. We had no problems with it because the host is very respectful.
Everything was great. Location is excellent, super quiet, right next to a canal. Breakfast is made by your host which is a nice touch. Would totally recommend for a stay in Copenhagen.

The area itself is very well located with most of the hotspots being within walking distance. It's also quiet at night. We highly recommend it and will definitely come back!

The owner is super friendly and it was a pleasure to have conversations with him. He accomodated the fact that we were travelling with our daughter. The location is in a quiet and nice part of the city, close to the center, and the price is really democratic for a city like Copenhagen.
