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 en suite to the room wasn’t clean when I arrived, there was a dirty shoe print in the shower and a questionable stain on the bathroom floor. Nobody came into my room while I was staying to replenish anything, and the tea coffee etc were not topped up before my stay, so I believe they had not done a through clean/service of the room between guests which is concerning.
The location and outside of the hotel were perfect for my trip and I felt safe in the area as a woman travelling alone. The bed was comfortable enough but a bit creaky

NetherlandsBed was OK for one night. The breakfast was not available at 07:30 as advertised. Perhaps opened up 15-30 minutes later by which time I had decided to skip it. Curtains could do with being sun blocking. I was given a code to use to enter the building but upon arrival there was nowhere to enter the code. Fortunately when I pressed the doorbell someone arrived. In general an odd setup with "irregular reception times".
The room was small but clean. Good shower and bathroom.

United KingdomLock on door faulty, couldn’t lock. No duvet on beds, just ( very clean crisp sheets) and a thin throw cover. So in March that wasn’t warm enough, and no extra blankets etc in room.
Breakfast was poor. Coffee and tea cold, reheated in clear ordinary kettles- on display at main breakfast table to re-boil (as a normal electric kettle would) Rather dangerous as all the coffee boiled over the table.

The good location of the hotel and the cost of the hotel made it a good stop over spot for an evening. The room was clean and all basic facilities were good. It lived up to expectations.

United KingdomI couldn't get into the hotel ! I arrived exhausted at 23.00, having travelled by train from Berlin. The hotel's front door was locked and no-one answered the bell or knocker. There was an emergency telephone number on the door but no-one answered that, or the 3 messages I left. I could also not get through to Booking.com, which was extremely disappointing. I'm a 68 year old man and this was very stressful; for a lone woman or someone with disabilities, it could have been really disastrous. At the 4th attempt, I finally got through to the emergency phone number and was able to get in via 2 key safes. A great shame because everything else about my stay was very good.
Lovely, clean room that I think had been recently decorated.

United KingdomSerious security issues, female traveling alone, no message sent re PIN code to access room after hotel was locked up for the night, female who answered emergency number said "this is not a 24hr helpline" of course not but its is an emergency number and I didn't have access to my room, which is an EMERGENCY, left standing outside for 50 mins late at night because she wouldn't answer my call. Had to get my husband to call from a different number for her to answer and give me access to my room at 10.30pm. Room was clean but bed very uncomfortable, no duvet, blankets which I presume aren't washed on every occasion was very uncomfortable. Shower fitting was broken and had to hold the spray to shower, reported this on my 1st day but nothing was done. Breakfast very poor and didn't eat there.
