How guest reviews work
Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewThe location was great, right near Stortorget and Lilla Torg, and it was easily walkable from the central train station. There are plenty of restaurants in the vicinity.
The hinged, glass, curved partial shower door was odd to look at and not very functional as it barely kept water from spraying all over the place.

Verified reviewThe hotel has an excellent location, within walking distance to many places in the city center. Our room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Breakfast was very enjoyable; the friendly attitude of the service staff made our mornings even better. Overall, the staff were very helpful. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
The only thing I personally did not like was that the bathroom had a bathtub instead of a shower, but this is just a personal preference. Other than that, everything was excellent

Verified reviewExcellent location! This hotel is right in the city center, close to all the sights and restaurants, while also being in a fairly quiet street. Breakfast was superb! Staff was very helpful and friendly.
Shower doors have a strange design, does not really stop water splashing everywhere

Verified reviewGood localisation - only 5 min walk to the train station, fantastic breakfast, spacious room
Didn't feel like Elite Hotel standard, bathroom was not fresh, shower door wasn't closing so bathroom ended up being all wet, water pressure was bad, room didn't feel fresh either, I was a bit disappointed considering it's the family of Elite Hotels and I was always happy with their hotels

Verified reviewBreakfast was ok but coffee very disappointing. More fresh fruit would have been good. Bircher muesli beautiful
Our room never had the tea bags etc replenished. Also, only one of each type but we both drink the same tea.

Verified reviewThe hotel was central to Malmo and within easy reach of the main station. The staff were all very helpful and polite. The bed was comfortable and the room was a pretty good size.
Nothing.

Verified reviewThe hotel was excellent in every way. It is in a perfect location, walking distance to everything. The room was wonderful. It was a good size, clean and comfortable. We didn’t want to leave. The breakfast was outstanding with great variety and the front desk staff was welcoming and friendly. Since we arrived by car we appreciated having parking that we reserved in advance for a fee in the hotel’s private underground garage. We would definitely stay here again when returning to Malmo.
