Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. 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...).

New ZealandWould have preferred a walk-in shower to a jacuzzi. The room air conditioning wasn't up to the job. The room was too hot and the air conditioning could not be adjusted. Also, the common spaces (entrances, lifts and hallways) were also overheated and felt a bit oppressive.
Wonderfully comfortable bed. Chic 'bohemian' room decor. The breakfast was quite good, but lacked a bit of variation after 3 days. (Would have preferred to have breakfast in a dining area, rather than delivered to our room, however. Staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful and the room serviced daily.

United KingdomThe mattress topper on my bed wasn’t level, I tried to pull it back up as I kept dipping in my sleep and my pillows smelt like greasy food. I would have addressed this issue but it was late and didn’t want to be that person.
Amazing staff. Complimentary drink when when checking in. Couldn’t fault the location. It made my stay convenient when meeting friends on canal street. The bar was great and had outside seating to soak up the sun.

Coffee maker no instructions and temperamental Wanted a drink in the lovely outside bar area sat down was ignored by all staff for at least 10 mins. Asked about the 2-4-1 cocktail advertised in room. Staff member quite rude and abrupt that offer wasn't on, didn't offer us an alternative she just walked away. We got up and left.

United KingdomIts strange the lack of food for breakfast and a continental breakfast that was fine but would of hoped for more for the money spent on it On arrival guests are offered a glass of prosecco - I dont drink so wasnt offered a soft drink - you just miss out! you should of made the experience fair for everyone. No decaf in the room - asked for some and it was out of date when it arrived. I always expect at least a bottle of water in a room and not one that costs from the mini bar.
It was a good-sized room, and the location was perfect for my work the following day. I spent 2 nights here and as a seasoned traveller I can say its fine to stay. The hot shower was the best thing every day - it's perfect temperature, however you like it!

United KingdomExceptional staff, champagne on arrival from the wonderful receptionist. The amenities both inside and outside were a pleasant welcome. The cocktail seating area outside was a true hit with both me and my partner. We were in a perfect location from transport, to bars, to the best nightlife. The room was lovely, we were given an upgrade to a beautiful, spacious room. There were drinks and snack provided which they deducted off of a holding fee if you were to consume/use anything, although we didn’t it was a bonus for if we did want anything as we would just be refunded the remaining balance. The room had a street view as we were on the first floor so it could get noisy at times - this was to be expected and we didn’t mind a single bit! There was a control panel beside the (large and exceptionally comfortable) bed that controlled the blinds for the morning and the evening and even the mood lighting around the bed! Safe to say this was a wonderful stay and when we are back in Manchester we will definitely be booking here again!
