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...).

United KingdomThere was no physical keys for this hotel, also no staff physically on site, it took me several attempts to use a system that I’m not familiar with to be able to get into my room, the bathroom was very small, the hot water was not hot and the pressure of the water was ridiculously slow
The bed was the best bit about this stay

United KingdomHaving being moved, not having g the electronic key pad operation explained to me. There was an emergency mobile number taped to the door, I called the number several times but got no reply or voice mail facility. I could not operate the keypad ( and no, I'm not stupid, being a degree educated engineer). So, at 60 yrs old, I had to sleep in my car until, I could access the building when staff arrived at 7.45 am !
Nothing,as I got moved to a different hotel as it was full on arrival and only found out on arrival after paying 24hrs carparking nearby.

United KingdomWe turned up the curtains were shut. We rang the bell, no answer. There were two un welcoming looking women peeking through the gap, looking at us stood in the rain. There were 4 numbers to phone on the door, 3 were crossed out and the 4th didn’t ring through at all. The line beeped and went dead. When we eventually got through after numerous texts, the man on the other end of the phone was rude and unhelpful. A guy eventually answered the door, he wasn’t happy, he had just moved in to the flat below and it was nothing to do with him. This made us really uneasy, booking this “hotel” nearly ruined our night as we had a concert to attend. Luckily we found a lovely place across the road which were very accommodating!
