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.).

CanadaOne small negative point: the shower/bath drain was clogged, so there was always a good amount of water in the bath while showering.
Everything was working as it should. The staff was great! The restaurant has some very good pasta.

AustraliaOur room wasn't serviced due to staffing issues which was a bit disappointing as we stayed for a number of nights and being four in the room it would have been lovely to have a little professional touch during our stay
The location is second to none. Staff are lovely. The restaurant is nice and worth a visit - we appreciated the complimentary morning coffee. The lobby area as you enter is fantastic. We used the gym which was well appointed and met our needs

IrelandI was charged twice for my stay. Even though the money was not taken from my account,it was blocked. This had a huge impact on my holiday. Reception were less than helpful when I pointed this out, they did not have a clue how to solve this, all they had to do was revert the charge, that was beyond their capabilities. Apart from this, I would have given top marks for everything.
The urban suite was fabulous. Location was great

United KingdomAgain..just slightly on the border of the run down part of town but apart from that it was perfect.
It was soo close to Union square which was great. To the left of the hotel was slightly dodgy but we just stayed away from that part. It is a beautiful hotel..the lobby area was gorgeous and the rooms were stunning. Our room was slightly small but gorgeous all the same. The shower wasn’t too strong but didn’t bother us. They give re fillable water bottles which was a nice touch. Very welcoming staff.

United KingdomNo coffee machiene in the room, and no water or any other bits like this. Some kind of sofa or additional seating would be nice so I could sit with food, drinks - I don't like eating in bed or anything. The location was great but there were a lot of homeless people and dirt on the streets.
The room was really big and spacious, and really clean. The curtains were nice and dark so able to sleep well too. The hotel generally was super clean and the staff were so so helpful! Overall, a great stay and I shall be back :)

United StatesWater was cold in the shower (never heated up). I’ve stayed here a few times before and never had this issue. I mentioned it to the front desk upon leaving and they’ve promised to look into it (and they’re a great team so I have no doubt they will do so).
Large hotel with relaxing public spaces and a nice restaurant.
