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.).

AustraliaRoom lighting was a bit dim and the staircase was quite narrow. Everything else was great! No complains
Spacious room size. Nicely located near the city center. Very close to Vondelpark, which is perfect if you'd like to go for a stroll.

NetherlandsSomeone had a key to my room and walked in at 04:45 am. I have no idea who the person was or how they had a key to my room. I’m grateful as a man that I can defend myself but a female is at risk of sexual assault/rape as security is obviously non existent. I asked for the manager to investigate and get back to me but nothing has happened. I couldn’t go back to sleep and the night was ruined. DO NO STAY HERE

BelgiumBedroom was terrible. Double room booked. 2 single beds pushed together with no connection between beds and nothing to fill gap in mattress...normally no problem but completely different size mattress´ and beds where made up as singles with seperate covers and sheets, so clearly no care goes into preparing a twin room as a double. Normally a simple task. Asked for replacement or to at least make the bed up with double sheet and cover which the not so friendly gentleman on the desk grudgingly agreed to sort, it seemed he didnt want to entertain any sort of conversation let alone any request. But surprisingly came back to find the mattress was replaced with a double...good, normally, but it smells extremely bad and doesnt fit bed frames so dirt of frames is clear and obviously filthy. Extension cable for tv just hanging on the wall under tv and decoder precariously sitting on top of tv. Lost count of how many times it fell. But just to remark on it, it didnt really bother us or impact negatively on our stay...just looks terrible. Floors dirty and carpet in corridors smelly and old. Entire hotel needs a makeover, shame as it is a nice building. Normally i dont complain here but this is an exception. Waitied at reception on check out but nobody came so left without passing on remarks about bed solution and rest to management. If you are seriously not bothered and just want a bed for the night after partying in the centre, then this place is fine, if you get it at the right price. For anything else, stay well away.
Good location, big rooms, bathroom was small but tidy and clean. Check in staff nice and polite and reception area nice and tidy.

DenmarkThe window to the room was open. This prevented us from strengthening our immune system with a new fungus. If we weren't high as kites we probably would have been worried about the loose ceiling moldings. Luckily they didnt fall on us.
The flooring was immaculate and barely had any wear and tear. The missing baseboards complemented the room with more square footage. The toilet functioned almost perfectly without intervention. It was easy to stop the toilet from running by pressing the small flush button. The cable management of the tv added extra feng shui to the room by having all the cables hanging from the wall providing you with an extra place to hang your dirty drawers. The extra duves with complimentary piss stains reminds you that you wont be cold tonight. We especially loved the multi function of the bedlights. We didnt even have to use the on/off buttons. We could just turn the light at an angle of 45 degrees to turn off.

AustraliaOne of the beds was extremely uncomfortable, and the lack of air conditioning made the room unbearably hot. Additionally, leaving the window open meant constantly dealing with the overpowering smell of weed. (I understand we are in Amsterdam just something to note) The toilet facilities were subpar, and both the shower head and drain fell below the standards typically expected from a 3-star hotel, in my opinion. Furthermore, there were issues with entering and exiting our rooms due to constant notifications and alarms that seemed to track our every move within the hotel. I was not aware that bringing friends into the hotel was prohibited. For instance, my friend had the key card and entered the premises just five minutes prior, yet I was still required to check into the hotel. While I understand the need for security, I explained to the hotel staff that my friend had gone up to the room just a few minutes earlier. If I wanted to experience the conditions of a prison camp, I would have committed a crime instead of paying to be detained.
