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.).

CanadaParking was too expensive. I feel it should be included in the listed price for your room.
I loved the older style of the building, it gave off a very elegant vibe. The bellman was well dressed and very welcoming. The front desk staff were informative & friendly.

CanadaOverall feels like it needs a good coat of paint. Elevators feel like they are in a low-income building. One elevator was under repair but there were no signs so no one knew why it took so long. There was a piece of artwork actually missing from our room - with hooks still there we informed front desk who also found that strange.
Great location, staff is friendly. Food in dining room is good. Rooms are clean/well kept other than needing repairs and basic upgrades.

CanadaThe 9th floor room was on the small side - a small closet, no drawers except for extra-wide bedside tables, but not a real problem for a one-night stay. Room heating was an issue. When we turned up the temp, the metal electrical baseboard heaters got dangerously hot. The heat didn't reach the small bathroom - because the ventilation in the bathroom was so noisy & couldn't be turned off, we kept the door closed. We mentioned the heating issue to staff, they apologized & offered to send up maintenance, but because of the late hour we declined. We would look for a larger, more up-to-date room if we stay again.
A lovely old-style hotel, with a beautiful lobby. Underground parking was accessible from the hotel, and a doorman was helpful & welcoming. Desk staff were very friendly & helpful, and attempted to deal with a room issue quickly. Great view over the adjacent park. We enjoyed an evening meal in the restaurant. The location was very good for our medical appt at QEII (walking distance). Lots of small restaurants & cafes in area. We stayed one night.

CanadaSunday night the last night of our Stay my Wife took out our dog for a late night bathroom and had to dispose of a poop bag. The girl working the front desk was extremely rude. My wife asked if there wa a garbage can outside to dispose of the bag since she had not taken our dog that late at night and on the street so she was unsure where to get rid of the bag. The staff member was like you can't leave that here it will smell up the lobby which is common sense but the front desk worker was just rude and unwilling to help. The saving grace was the very nice doorman working that night that came over and said he could show and escort why wife to dispose of the bag.
When we first got there everything was great, the staff were friendly and courteous, also the room on check in was great as we had picked the Exec Suite. our stay was going great my wife it was her birthday and was surprised by the Hotel with a Bottle of red wine and a Birthday card and Gourmet Popcorn.

CanadaI have stage 4 breast cancer and walk with a cane. There were areas I couldn’t navigate easily, up to the mezzanine washrooms once when friends were visiting, lower parkade (maybe there was an elevator but I couldn’t find it!) someone could spend more time looking at this.
History, attention to detail, having the restaurant/pub is so handy, love the nespresso coffee, turn down service, location close to everything. Great parkade too!

Loved the old fashioned feel of the hotel. Our first room was not as expected from photos on line so managed to change. Next room fabulous. Bed super comfy. While not in centre of town hotel was only a 10 minute walk and near lots of shopping and restaurants. Staff were friendly. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
