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.).

United KingdomThey happened to be doing a system upgrade the day we were visiting, which caused issues with check in and no TV, however they more than made up for it with comps. No big deal.
We love this hotel / brand: Wonderful and accommodating staff, inspiring artwork and furnishings, comfortable and functional rooms. The location is perfect for visiting all parts of SF. One of the few places we will return to again and again.

FinlandIn general, the current social problems in downtown SF are very visible, and in the area of the hotel, especially at night, you might not feel so comfortable, even if nothing really dangerous is going on.
The hotel is very centrally located in downtown SF, but still a very quiet place to stay. Great staff, generous breakfast, and even though the room was small the bed was very comfortable.

IsraelNote that the front rooms are noisy, the once on the back are silence and quiet. Also note that the rooms are small so if you have luggages it will not work. We came with just back bag so it went perfect.
Comfort place, clean, technological and helpful staff. At the begining our room was very noisy, so we asked to move to the back instead of the fron and it was perfect.

JapanWhile sound proofing seemed good on the walls, it seemed less so in the shower rooms. My neighbor either next door or above me took a long shower early in the morning where they were singing very off key, and I heard way too much of it. The app doesnt seem to work if you use the same email as your booking.com account, as it sends the verification email through booking.
Rooms and facilities were super clean. The tech forward angle was great for the most part. Loved how they maximized a small space. Bed was super comfy and easy to relax in. Shower room was great. Staff were very helpful and professional.

GermanyNothing to complain
The room was nicely designed and perfect for one person or a couple (although the somewhat open bathroom situation with sink in the room and frosted glass may not be for everyone). Controling lights, temperature and opting out of room cleaning via the tablet in the room was very convenient. Safe under the bed is big enough for a laptop/camera/etc. The hotel was very conveniently located when travelling to/from the airport. Breakfast was great, too, and staff very friendly.
