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.).

ItalyNo hotel parking (an external Company runs the parking below the hotel) . It Is a conference center, so you could have events happening while you stay.
Clean rooms with complimentary water, high quality breakfast, good restaurant and bar options. Super comfy beds.

SwitzerlandThe hotel is a conference center with about 200 densely packed rooms and though the lobby with its bar and water reservoir are inviting, the overall atmosphere is still more of a business hotel than a vacation place. The rooms and bathrooms are reasonably modern, but housekeeping staff could use some re-training. Our shower head was covered with stalactites, the only window/balcony door was in a dire need of spring cleaning, an empty box of cosmetic tissue was not replaced. On one occasion we found the contents of our bathroom trash bin dumped into the toilet …
We have dined twice at the hotel restaurant and found both food and service very good (contrary to some Google reviews). The treatment offerings at the spa are quite varied and we enjoyed the massages.

Czech RepublicBreakfast buffet had only a few choices of proteins (scrambled eggs/boiled eggs/tarta/sausages & bacon) , perhaps this was more suitable for the Italian taste for sweet breakfast. Rather small balcony compared to the size of the room, but still nice to enjoy the sea view.
Room was very spacious with a very comfortable bed. The breakfast buffet offered a large selection of pastries and Sicilian snacks, it was nice to enjoy a slow morning outside. There was a small gym on site open 24x7. Last but not least, staff was really helpful!

RomaniaThe out date and old facilities the dirt and the signs of many years of living in. The restaurant was terrible price vs quality. No free parking, and you pay an extra on everything including the poor cleaning everyday.
The location of the place was very nice and the staff as well. They had lots of good beer selection at the bar and a cool theme of the overall hotel. The rooms were ok but not the best or the cleanest or new.

GermanyHotel was what we expected, so not too much to complain about.
Breakfast is superior - grand selection of fresh foods and the view of the sea is spectacular. Staff is very helpful, friendly, hospitable. Visited in December so pool was closed. The location is directly across from the sea. The sidewalks are great and allowed us to walk/run quite a distance. Parking is easy in garage.

NorwayThe hotel needs a renovation, and the location is probably OK for summer but too far from the city for winter.
This hotel is outdated, but we knew that from when we booked. We got fortunate and were upgraded to the Presidential Suite. That is a vast suite - more like an apartment on top of the hotel. Also we arrived late, but they were nice and made us a lovely dinner anyhow.

United StatesOn site parking was not included in the price and they charged by the size of the vehicle. The artwork and displays throughout the hotel was quite awkward with one photo displaying drug use, some with tribesmen holding AK-47s, and others just plain creepy.
Rooms were adjoining with a common living area/bed set up for our son (3rd child). The rooms were spacious and accommodating. We requested a clothes iron and the staff had it to the room within 10 minutes.

LatviaSoundproofing was non-existent - if you want to sleep in, no luck, at 9am loud door banging begins (from housekeeping, I'm assuming) and we could hear every noise from our room. Neighbors can be heard clear as day as well (watching TV, coughing, nothing loud). Location was safe, but if you want to go out to eat, not a lot of choice around, more lively regions are within a 20 min walk.
Good view from our room Clean Pleasant staff
