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.).

The area is quiet, not touristic. The connection with the centre is easy both by tram and metro. The room is large, clean, and well equipped. The hotel has very nice collection items that show its history.

BelgiumSound proof could be a bit better but it’s inevitable for properties with some age. But it didn’t bother us too much!
Love it!! Retro, classic and clean. I spent five very laidback night here. It seems to be operated by a small crew of very sweet ladies, who also prepares the nicest breakfast and does the cleaning exceptionally speedy. Thank you all for providing me with such a warm and memorable stay, I had the best new year holiday for my first visit to Vienna.

IndonesiaThe only thing that I dont like is the pillow, too thin for my liking
The room was big, well actually maybe its more we can call an apt. It has 2 bedrooms, separate room toilet and shower. My 12yo daughter in her own bedroom and she was so pleased. Staffs are super friendly and mostly they can speak English. Location is also easy to reach from the airport. Just use City Airport Train from Airport until Landstraße, change to U3 to Ottakring direction and you are off until the last station. Walk for about 400m, you reach the hotel. Very easy. And when we wanted to walk around the city, just take the U3 and you are good to go to the main city center, old city center ect. Breakfast is traditional German breakfast, with Brötchen, Schinken, eggs, yogurt, juices, tea or coffee. Its so homey there. It feels like coming to Oma's house with some antique furniture around. When we left, we also got a little souvenir, a snowglobe!! I recommend this hotel to anyone who will go to vienna. You will not regret it.

Breakfast was very good. We appreciated how quiet the hotel was at night. Very comfortable room, and the public areas were eclectic, interesting and quirky. We would definitely go back.

We parked right outside the hotel, but there were plenty of free parking spaces in the surrounding streets. Close to supermarkets, close to the subway, tram stops and P+R car park. Recommendable.

RomaniaArea is not great and furniture dated.
Situated in a recently refurbished old building, this hotel is a nice accomodation, although pretty far from the centre. We got a suite with 2 rooms, bathroom and toilet, all very nice and clean but a little dated. Kettle and coffee machine were a plus. Breakfast was good but a little crowded, the first day we had to wait for a table to be free. The owners are always present and very nice. Parking outside is very cheap in this area, 4 E pet day during the week and free in weekends.
