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.).

United KingdomThere was no kettle in the room! Reception were happy to provide hot water on request but I was taken aback by this - I hadn't checked it on the listing because I assumed it was standard!
The room was spacious, with room to work comfortably and spread ourselves out. The bathroom had a good shower and was clean and in good condition. The bed was very comfortable. Although close to the city centre, the street the hotel itself was on was very quiet and peaceful.

It was a real treat to stay in a hotel which was not obviously part of a chain and which did not have a corporate identity. All staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The single room was entirely adequate, and it was a bonus to have the option of a bath as well as shower. A safe in the room is always helpful as well. I still can't believe how a hotel just a couple of minutes from the railway station and main streets could be located in such a quiet, tree-lined side street, with its own (smallish) garden.

United KingdomOne of the pillows might have been firmer, but it was good to get two each rather than just one. Having hot drinks available in the afternoon was welcome, but 4 francs for hot water and a tea bag for residents is a bit steep.
Comfortable corner room, with a useful safe and a small fridge, plus wine glasses provided. Traditional but attractive decor. The street was nice and quiet at night. Handy location for those arriving by train, without being too close to the station. The receptionist was helpful in finding us a plug adapter when we discovered that all the sockets were the Swiss 3 pin and none took the regular European type.

TaiwanPower outlets were behind the night stand, had to move it to charge my phone by my bed. And then the socket couldn’t fit my power adapter with the night lamp power cord at the same time, so I had to forfeit a light source. The pillows were too flat for me, good thing I had four to pile up. (Traveling solo) Bit pricey for me but considering prices in the Swiss I’d say it’s a good bargain.
Staff were great and welcoming, everyone I met spoke English. They had a tea service with cake but I was out so didn’t go. Room was very spacious, with big windows to let in lots of light. Loved the balcony. Bathroom also very spacious complete with a tub, lots of space over the sink for your own stuff. TV was fixed in a corner but could turn to face armchair or bed. Bed and duvet both very comfy. Continental breakfast with eggs and sausage, 2 selection of cheese, 3 kinds of ham, and 5-6 different bread. Coffee with milk was great, cappuccino not so much. Bread selection were so good I ate too much.

SwitzerlandThough the bed was comfy, the sheet was very old and scratchy. The room had a slight eggy smell to it.
Excellent location, only a 5 minute walk from Lausanne train station. The room was clean & reasonably sized. I checked in past midnight which wasn’t an issue.

PolandBathroom was missing some space around the sink for any kind of private items (like makeup or glasses) and the hairdryer was rather old and overheating quickly.
Hotel is nicely located in the centre of Lausanne, just few minutes of a (steep) walk from the train station. Room was rather small but enough for traveling alone. Staff was friendly.
