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 sofa bed is too small and not enough lounge seating.
The spacious apartment is located for easy access to Hyde park, Oxford street and a leisurely stroll to Euston. The apartment is very secure and quiet. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook and clean afterwards.

AustraliaOn the first day the plug in one of the bathrooms was stuck - so we couldn’t use that bathroom sink. We messaged the property contact who asked for authority to enter the property to fix it - we said yes. We stayed at the property for 5 nights and it was never fixed. It was a little a little noisy but we slept through it. There are some restaurants but not a large variety. Don’t let the title ‘soho apartments’ fool you - they are a long way from Soho.
Clean, located close to railway station, comfortable beds. The apartment was warm - given we were there in November- this was a good thing. Nice kitchen.

SingaporeComplicated check in process, more complex than hotels. They uses a digital lock, which means u need internet access to unlock. Out of a sudden the device went offline without reason and I was left worried. Soundproofing was bad, couldn’t sleep cause there’s just way too much noise from the traffic (police, ambulance and fire trucks) outside at night.

AustraliaCleaner was still in the property on arrival at 3 and remained there until linen arrived after 7pm that night, which was weird and strange. There were no towels or beds made until after 7pm that night. The sofa bed is NOT the bed in the property’s profile picture, it’s a small click clack bed that’s only suitable for a very young child. The only duvet for the sofa bed was so heavily stained we refused to use it. Alerted property management as soon as issues were noticed with little to no response back. Was told that someone would come into the apartment one day while we were out to sort issues but nobody came. No tea towels/dish cloths to dry dishes No cloths to wipe down benches/ table after use No hand wash in upstairs bathroom For the money paid these issues should not be issues
The apartment was wonderful. Really spacious with lots of room for a young family with 3 kids (5, 5 & 9). Very large bathroom upstairs, and modern second bathroom and kitchen.

SpainThe apartment needs some money spent on it. The taps are loose in both bathrooms, there is not enough crockery and drinking glasses for 4 people let alone the 6 it is advertised to accommodate. One of the handles on the chest of drawers in the downstairs bedroom needs to be fixed back on properly, the knob on the dimmer switch in the living room keeps falling off and only half of the toaster works. There were no tea towels provided.
The apartment is spotlessly clean. It is in a very convenient location with 2 underground stations just a few meters away and within walking distance of many must see locations. Easily reached from Gatwick airport.

AustraliaOn arrival we had: 1. Issues accessing the property with the digital keys. The instructions weren’t clear enough and this method is not great if you don’t have roaming in your phone. It’s also unsafe in the side street at night for females if accessing the property is difficult. 2. Not enough towels on arrival for the number of guests 3. No kitchen towels 4. Not enough bed sheets for the number of guests. The table in the living room needs fixing as it’s leaning quite badly. Despite the above the lady who I spoke with was very good and attended to the issues raised.

United StatesThere’s a £250 deposit. A lot of things in the apartment are quite fragile and at the verge of breaking. examples: 1. most of the faucets are quite loose, the faucets upstairs of bathroom sink are extremely tight and non functional. 2. A couple o cabinets have broken hinges and are loose. 3. bar stools legs are extremely loose and when you sit on them feels like they will come apart any time. 4. the downstairs bathroom tub window pane that opens will sway right into the sink and break if you are not extremely careful ( quite a design error). even though the apartment looks nice from distance these things make the stay very stressful specially as there is a 250£ deposit on the line. Maintenance should be done properly if all faucets, cabinets, appliances and furniture. the design flaws (bathroom) should be taken care of to make it more safe and family friendly.
very nicely decorated. good esthetics. price is quite reasonable.

United KingdomNeeded a smart phone for access (smart key). Ok for us but could be an issue if you do not have a smart phone for entry. You needed to request additional keys from the management company (phone battery dies etc).
Great location near Paddington Station/underground and Edgeware Rd Underground. Ample of restaurants, coffee shops and small supermarkets very close to the facility. Perfect for a family or group of friends. Facilities in the kitchen were good. Fantastic communication with management company. We were missing extra bedding for the sofa bed but this was resolved quickly. Clean. Apartment was quiet but remember you are in London road traffic but double glazing blocked it out well. Would highly recommend.

NetherlandsAs the apartment is located in the middle of Soho, the neighborhood is the furthest thing from quiet. The noise from the neighboring cafes, the 24//7 hustle and bustle but most importantly the traffic outside was so blaring that with the windows open it sometimes felt like you were in the middle of it all. One would think that closing the windows would do the trick, but unfortunately that didn’t help. Even with the windows closed you still have a front row seat to the noise. Another point of improvement was the availability for extra sheet. One of the beds is a pull out couch and when we wanted to use said couch, we couldn’t find any extra bedding for this bed. Though their reaction was swift when we pointed this out, we then received unclean sheets. We thankfully received clean ones the follwoing day. The location and it’s closeness to all our activity somewhat made up for the hickups we encountered.
Great house, very spacious and accommodating for 5 people [if one doesn’t mind sleeping on the pull out couch]. Equiped with everything you might need, all the appliances were updated and worked great. The owner of the place were also quick with their response to our questions/request; for example, upon arrival the fire alarm kept going off. The next day they sent a maintenance worker to fix this problem.

United KingdomThe communication before hand was very long-winded. I received multiple lengthy emails. The owners have an ID verification process (even though Booking.com have our details) and we had to pay a £250 damage deposit which has not been refunded quickly. You also need to download an App to access the key code which felt quite unnecessary and frustrating to do on the day of travel. The flat needs some DIY attention (wobbly kitchen tap and light fittings) which wasn't a big problem but makes you nervous when there is a damage deposit in place.
Really spacious and well appointed maisonette in a great location for the museums, cafes & shopping. It was ideal for a family of four with comfy beds, big wardrobes and generous, clean, sleek bathrooms. The master bedroom is a standard double (not a king) but very comfortable. Not suitable for small children or anyone with mobility issues (lots of stairs).

IrelandCould not use the shower in the second bedroom bathroom as it leaked through the ceiling onto the floor of the hall, this seemed like an existing/reoccurring issue as there was clear staining from water damage on the ceiling & the floorboards beneath the ceiling where the leak was coming were lifting. Security deposit bit steep considering there doesn’t seem to be much maintenance to the apartment other than it being cleaned before someone else going into it (e.g. holes in walls, broken blinds etc). Not easy to get in contact w/ a rep over the phone and emailing back and forward wasn’t great either and when you did get a reply were at very unsociable hours.
Great location directly across the road from the Edgware underground station. The size of the apartment was a surprise for somewhere so central, bigger in person than from what you see in the pictures.

United Kingdom5 adults were booked but the sofa bed wasn’t set up for a 5th person, no duvet covers, fitted sheets or enough towels for 5 guests provided, a duvet was in the cupboard but was stained so didn’t feel comfortable using it so used my coat as a duvet instead and maintenance staff failed to provide bedding (the attempted to do so at 10:30pm when we were at a concert) then didn’t try to attempt again. A lot of surface dust in property. Locking system complicated at first but easy when you know how. A lot of information required by staybeyond for a UK booking and if you are travelling in a group this is quite a hassle. £250 deposit refund had to be chased. Not enough crockery/glasses for 5 people.
Reasonable price for location, handy for tube and amenities
