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.).

NetherlandsA little noisy, had a room overlooking the square (already quite noisy), exacerbated by a broken window that wouldn't close... I also had a fridge that didn't work..
Great location near St Pt. Station and good facilities in the room (coffee, tea, toiletries). Great for solo travelers.

United KingdomThe curtains were very flimsy and didn't keep out the light, so the room was quite bright by 6am. The landing outside the room was very echoing, so when neighbouring guests came in at 2am and 4am (!!!) their doors banged loudly. Carpet on the landing would cure this problem.
Location very good directly opposite the railway station. Room a good size and very comfortable bed. Nice bathroom with shower and bath. Breakfast was OK, but little choice of hot food. Dinner in the restaurant in the evening was excellent.

United KingdomThe proprietor has a duty of care to their guests of any potential hazards to health. In this case, there was micro dust particles embedded in the heavy window curtains and window-sills from building works, all within 100meters from the front facade of the hotel. As a result, I became very ill from this, due to my allergy to dust! As a result of this, it spoilt my stay at Ghent and I cannot give it a higher rating.
The location was very good and handy; especially exceptional when we travelled by train.

AustraliaThe only issue - and it's a VERY small one - is that the elevator does not open directly on to the first floor, so after exiting the elevator, I had to carry my luggage up a short flight of stairs to my door level.
Arriving and departing Ghent via train, this hotel was ideally located less than 2 minutes' walk from the railway station. Staff were friendly and helpful. I had a nice room overlooking the plaza in front of the railway station. The Nepalese meal in the adjoining restaurant was very good indeed.

Room was spacious and realy clean. I was able to leave my luggage at the reception as I arrived early. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was of a continental type, very rich and coffe was good. Hotel is situated only 2 min from the main train station.

United StatesI found nothing to complain about.
This is a modest hotel conveniently located across the plaza from the train station in Ghent. My room was large, well heated, and comfortable with a view over the park to the train station, the bathroom was spotlessly clean. There is a tram from the train station to the city center and other places of interest and the museum of fine arts is in the Citadel Park a few minutes walk away. The hotel has a restaurant and offers breakfast as well as evening meals.

AustraliaThis is technically a 3-star hotel but felt more like a 2-star due to the age of the fit out. Duct tape was used to hold the TV decoder in my room. Water pressure in the shower was low.
The location was very close to Gent Sint Pieters Train Station and trams/buses. The hotel has a lift. The gentleman who checked us in was very friendly and gave us tips on how to travel around Ghent. WiFi was fast at 260mpbs! Rooms were clean and there's daily housekeeping. We had a good view of the train station. There were several reviews about the rooms smelling of heavy cooking from the Nepalese restaurant downstairs but we were lucky to not experience that.
