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...).

United KingdomFor a hostel, it was expensive, but that's Amsterdam for you.
Great communal areas in the hostel - there is a real buzz and the whole building is very cool. The location is brilliant - just as you step off the ferry from Centraal Station. Amsterdam Noord is the place to be!

United KingdomThe room was tiny and the bed was rather creaky. I found it difficult to sleep being so conscious that any movements could wake the other hostellers up.
The location is amazing, two minutes' walk from the ferry point (ferries run 24/7). Checking in is easy, you do it yourself on a tablet and get a room key. I liked the bar too, open until midnight. The staff were friendly.

AustraliaThe shower was extremely frustrating, the glass was about a foot off the ground & no door making the entire room wet as water went everywhere. This made it so you couldn’t have anything on the floor outside the shower otherwise it would be soaked. There was also insufficient storage for the shower room, a thin shelf & a few hooks on the wall. Not enough for clothes, toiletries & towels without having things piled up & falling off. The soap dispenser in our bathroom was also faulty and leaked soap all day leading to a pile up of soap on the ground. There was no daily house keeping either, the bins in the room were only changed once within my 4 night stay & only because a new roommate joined the dorm, no vacuuming or cleaning of the bathrooms.
Super big property & just a very simple, free and quick ferry over to Amsterdam Centraal station. Good sized rooms & love that the ensuite rooms had a seperate shower & sink room, makes it easier when staying with multiple people if you’re all getting your at the same time.

United KingdomThe breakfast is a pass. It's in a convenient location and at a very basic quality. Skip it
I liked the location and the room and the price given the location. What is an advantage on location can also be a disadvantage. This location is dependent on the ferry being functional on a regular basis. My visit was during a very busy time of SAIL 2025 and the ferry service was suspended for a number of hours.

ChileBecause is so massive and there's so many people coming and going, often you need something from the front desk and they’re swamped with people, which could definitely be improved, so you don't have to wait long in line to get a question answered. Also, the showers don’t contain the water well, so the whole bathroom ends up wet — a bit annoying. Apart from that, it’s a good place for a short stay in Amsterdam
It’s a massive hostel — it almost feels like hosteling on an industrial scale, if that makes sense. It’s modern, clean, and well-designed.

United KingdomThere could be more information on check in such as information on events and the fact that there is hot water for drinks 24/7 which I didnt know until check out. The communal areas are small than seem and taken up by peoples bags which I don't think should be allowed as people struggled for a place to sit at times and communal areas weren't cleaned up.
I liked that the shared rooms (10 female dorm) had an ensuite in the room and split between shower and toilet so people weren't waiting. The facilities were good with more available than I realised. Safe lockers, compact but well built dorm room. Staff were friendly and helped with keeping medicine cold and offer towels and hair dryer if needed.

SwitzerlandYou can‘t open the window in the room to ventilate after someone showered. The walls and doors are not very soundproof. Not a lot of necesseties available (i.e. you have to bring your own towel).
We booked a womens only room of 4. The room had separate lockers and its own bathroom which was convenient. It was overall clean and comfortable enough to spend three nights there as we did. The location of the hostel was perfect.
