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.).

Very clean room and one of the comfiest hotel beds I’ve slept on in years. Staff were helpful and polite, the concierge was especially helpful. Fantastic location, just out of town so great to have quiet from the huddle and bustle but close enough to walk in for food & drink. Spa was also great, mineral jacuzzi. Good parking underground.

CanadaDespite leaving the room from 930am to 330pm our room was not cleaned. The sign in the parkade says they cleaned the windshield of my car They did not and I didn’t move my car from parkade all weekend so there is no chance that I was away when they were doing it. The fact that it wasn’t cleaned is totally fine as i certainly didn’t expect it but the sign should be taken down
Great location. Nice staff. Super comfortable beds

United StatesAlthough the hotel's exterior appears quaint and inviting, the inside looked tired and outdated. The room and bathroom were spacious, but the beds were lumpy.
The staff was friendly and helpful. Even before we departed the United States, the hotel 'concierge' swiftly and successfully booked Banff gondola tickets through Pursuit and bus transfers from/to Calgary and between Banff and Lake Louise with Brewster Express! Although the Royal Canadian Lodge was one of the hotels located furthest away from town, it was a relatively short walk there, and the shuttle stop was steps from the front door.

United StatesWe reserved this property specifically because it had a pool, and the notice on Booking.com said that the pool renovations would be finished before we got there. But when we showed up, the pool is still closed for renovations.
Great place to stay with the family, outside of the main drag, but close enough to walk to anything we need. The staff was very helpful, and everything was clean and comfortable. Parking was easy and convenient.

United StatesIt was not busy when we arrived in the hotel. We were told that the room is ready and just need inspection. We requested if we can check in a little early coz we got wet from the rain and need to change for our 5pm dinner reservation at Sky Bistro but the lady at the front desk told us that we have to wait till 4pm. So we went to dinner wet. The doorman offered us to barrow his umbrella which is nice.
The location is great. It’s a walking distance to the shopping center and restaurants. It has a parking garage for guess but with a fee. The room is big with both air condition and fireplace. A descent size bathroom with 2 sinks with mirror. The room is clean with fresh linens. I would love to stay here again if I’m coming back to banff.
