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...).

MexicoThe bar closes at 6 pm
The building is a typical old Dutch one what makes the stay more formidable. Personal takes you to your room and explains all amenities along. A lot of care for detail.

United StatesWe had to change rooms on arrival as ours had a ladder to the bed, given the steep roof lines. Once of us has mobility issues so this was not acceptable. Luckily there was an alternate room available but we should have been warned in advance about the challenge of the room assigned to us.
Wonderful staff, charming property in a central location and delicious breakfast.

NetherlandsI am really nit picking because there wasn't anything that bothered me. The restaurant is closed on Tuesdays but there are plenty of options within walking distance. There is no lift once the front desk is closed for the night but they did make this clear in the booking request.
The staff are amazingly helpful, and they will do whatever they can to make your stay better. The hotel is beautiful, a great mix of a historic building with modern decor. The room is filled with modern luxuries and is very clean. The bed was very comfortable and I got a great night's sleep. The breakfast was brilliant with a all you can eat made to order menu.

United StatesThere is no elevator but the staff was more than happy to move our luggage. We are senior citizens and this would have posed the problem had they not been so wonderful.
The staff was exceptional, very friendly and very efficient. They certainly wanted to please us. The food was very good and the area was wonderful to walk around in.

United StatesThe room and facilities really had no deficiencies to speak of.
Posh and pampering set up. I was there over Easter and they provided a nice hollow chocolate Easter egg, with more chocolate goodies - it was on a plate with glass over it waiting for me. They had safe storage for my bike. Very easy walking distance to the core. The ceilings are like 20 feet high! 😁

United KingdomThe bed was a lot firmer than we are used to. But that was a tiny thing, hardly worth mentioning.
the decor was luxurious but comfortable and both rooms we had were beautifully styled as was the whole hotel. the little Easter treats left in the room and the way everyone is so friendly and helpful makes it an amazing hotel.

Staff was very friendly and even accommodated a early check-in. I would definitely stay here again and will be recommending it to friends.

GermanyThe lighting in the bathroom is very cosy, though for my liking, could be a bit more.
The hotel is in the heart of town and is beautifully restored and all features considered. The style is unique, clever and charming, a real gem. The staff a wonderful, all options at breakfast beautifully prepared or as it would seem, locally sourced. Amenities are eco-friendly in bigger pumps - so well done about not using little one way Shampoo etc.

Beautiful building right in the centre, near the church and museum. Staff were lovely and very helpful. Room was beautifully decorated, full of character and had a luxurious feel. Very helpful with parking advice and reserved a space for us in advance, which was super.
