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.).

AustraliaPlease be aware that you pay for the bread which is placed on your table during lunch. You also pay for butter portions.
Extremely clean, large rooms. Mini fridge, T.V provided. A nice touch with confectionery on the pillows. The bathroom is well set out and pristine. Great hot shower. Staff were very helpful. Ice-cream at the front was delicious. Central to town. Amazing view to monastery. Only 5 minutes walk to the train station, 10min walk to good selection of shops. Buffet breakfast was good. Lunch and dinner available - large portions. Please note that there are stairs only to the rooms, so if you cannot carry your luggage upstairs, you may need to ask for a luggage valet service (not sure if they provide). Would definitely stay here again.

United StatesOther reviews had commented on noise from below. We were on the floor right above the restaurant. We were there midweek. Early evening we could hear chatter but by bedtime it was quiet. The first night we both woke up to the smell of cigarette smoke. We have no idea where that was coming from and it was only a problem that first night.
Couldn't ask for a better location right on the square. The parking is much easier than other reviews made it sound. It's an enclosed courtyard and it has a walkway right to the back door of the hotel. We were expecting to walk a few blocks on cobblestone streets with our bags. The breakfast was excellent. Lots of variety and good coffee and juices. We had a room overlooking the square. It was cool enough to sleep with windows closed. With no AC, I could see it would be a problem on hot summer nights.

Melk is a major tourist draw, and there are a lot of places to stay. We were very happy with this one. The building is very interesting, the location is outstanding with a view of the abbey from our window, it has a good restaurant and gelato on the street. room was spacious, architecturally interesting with arched ceilings, and well appointed. A repeater if we are ever back in Melk.

United StatesStairs! We're 77 and 78, so managing suitcases up stairs can be a challenge. We did have assistance when we checked-in, so that was great. I should have been more diligent in reading the fine print - NO LIFT. We managed, but an elevator is always appreciated.
This hotel was 'location central' for us. Only a five-minute walk from the train station and sitting right in the middle of the Melk old town. Everything was walkable. Breakfast choices were good. We enjoyed the staff, especially in the restaurant where we experienced lively conversation.
