Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

United KingdomNext time I’d book a double room with a bath. The shower was perfect but there was no towel heater. The room was lovely and warm. All in all a very pleasant stay.
The location is perfect, so close to Botanic Gardens and the River Kelvin. The room was very clean and modern. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I had a lovely stay.

United KingdomThe shower wasn't the most powerful ever, and it would be good to have a wee shelf in the cubicle to put your bottles on. Not a big problem though!
Very clean, very comfortable bed and pillow, cosy and warm, strong WiFi. A nice quiet hotel. I would stay again.

United KingdomI drove there and managed to park in the hotel carpark at the back. Was a bit tight and I was lucky to get a parking place. Shower hose was leaking from the shower head, so there wasn't much water which came out of the shower head. When I checked out, I told the receptionist and he said they would get replaced.
Room was nice and comfortable, guy at reception was really nice and helpful.

United States of AmericaThe steps up to the front door keep this from being an accessible hotel but my taxi driver was willing to carry my luggage up for me and I am able to slowly climb stairs. The shower in my room drained very slowly and the spray nozzle is hung so high up that average women will never be able to adjust it - so we hope your housekeeping staff are all giants to clean them properly! Also, the bathroom was very cold. If I left the door closed it began to feel like a refrigerator in there. Otherwise it was clean and attractive
David greeted me and was very cheerful and helpful when I checked in, then he was equally cheery the next morning at checkout. He carried my luggage down the steps and directed me to the best bus stop, too. There was a directory in my room telling about places to visit and how to get around Glasgow - , that was really helpful. The room is very small but lots of thought went into how to make the best use of everything. I especially appreciated the way the desk merged into a luggage rack that is right below a compact rack for hanging clothes - and all of that is next to the radiator and the window. It would be a very handy place to hang hand-washed items to give them the best chance of drying overnight! The room was clean and quiet. The pillows were very fluffy and comfortable. The curtain closure was a little awkward because it assumed I was six feet tall but other than that it was just the right amount of coverage without wasting any materials. The radiator controls were very easy to operate and I accidentally got the room a bit cold but I did sleep comfortably. If I need to spend a second night in Glasgow I will definitely consider the Ambassador again.
