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 KingdomMore feedback than criticisms but a black out blind for windows would have made it better as the curtains didn't cover window completely and let alot of light in. The pillows are horrible and provide no support for head or neck. The staff were quick to provide me with an extra one though. The room was super hot on the first night. If staying here in warmer weather, a fan would be important for general comfort. If I were on the landside I think my score would be considerably different but fortunately had a waterside room.
Great location, friendly staff, good value for money, late check in was okay, love the whole concept of having a hotel on a boat, plenty of seating available to just chill.

United KingdomAll very good for the price. Difficulty getting the Wifi signal.
A very pleasant and well located floating hostel close to Ost Bahnhof. I've stayed here before and found it very friendly and useful. Despite the lively area I've not been bothered by noise even with the window open (generally needed as for me its always quite warm on board). Shared facilities always seem clean and well equipped. Rooms are basic but spacious and beds comfortable. Very handy if you are just passing through for a night, if I was staying longer I'd probably upgrade to the hotel sister ship next door.

United KingdomIt would have been lovely to have a room on the river side, as opposed to the land!
Staying on a boat was definitely quirky and the location was excellent. Helpful staff and easy to get to and fro on public transport. Great location. I imagine in summer it could be noisy, but in cool April it was too cold for people to hang about outdoors for long!

GermanyInsufficient curtains in the rooms facing the street. People walking on the sidewalk had no trouble looking into the room because the curtains were without sidetracks to keep them in place and cover the entire width of the window.
The cleanliness was outstanding. Free filter coffee ad libitum in the morning. Wonderful view from the boat terrace! Very comfortable beds.

United KingdomI was in the east ship (I think). Compared to the bigger side, it was quite dated, no water on the same floor, no cups in room, no locks on shared bathroom, bathroom not that clean and shower heads falling off. It's definitely more like a hostel, but also a great place to stay. Also they need something to cover the porthole window as the light coming in was disruptive at night. Bring your earplugs as it's noisey being a metal ship.
Comfy bed, lovely helpful staff, coffee in the morning, being on a boat was cool. Room was fine, superb location. I would book again for sure.

SlovakiaSomething not to fix, just a note to the other sound-sensitive travelers: While the immediate surroundings of the ships as much as the indoors were pretty calm at the time of my visit, the bridge has a frequent U-bahn traffic as well as the ambulance cars passing in the night - the noise gets in even with the closed windows. Ship walls can be thinner than in the regular buildings. This is to be expected. So bring the ear-plugs. Otherwise just suggestions: Bigger cups for the morning teas (maybe a bit more tea variety?). The first entry to reception may be confusing (without having the PIN code yet). Two sockets in the room may be not enough for some bigger groups. Extra blankets ready. Price ... it's Berlin 2024, I know. ;) But taking even the European salaries into account, price/value is still to be considered, even if this seemed to be one of the cheaper accommodations in Berlin.
Quite an accessible location transport-wise (10mins walk to Warschauer st. or Schlesisches Tor U-bahn), wonderful views from the water-side room (including the Oberbaumbrücke), otherwise just in front of The Wall gallery. Convenient access to supermarkets across the street, food stands etc. Living on the water has an extra calming effect within the metropolis. The ship is "vintage" in some sense (I usually like that retro vibe), but it did not feel shabby or dirty. Windows, floor, locks, beds - all good. Rooms were simple, but cozy. Slightly cold-ish some mornings, but easily fixed with an extra blanket. With just one person in a room, there was sufficient space for luggage and stuff (the other beds). It did not feel claustrophobic - although this was mostly my sleeping space. Shading of the French windows perfectly sufficient. The lights adequate but not unpleasantly cold/white. Two electricity sockets. There was no kettle in the room, but the tea/coffee service was covered for free in the mornings on the first ship (with reception desk). Bring your own stuff if you need specialties. Lovely little terrace on the backside of the ship, with quite romantic views. The toilets and bathrooms were basic, like on the boat, but always clean, soap and paper always available, with hot showers (a bit of waiting time) any time of the day. I did not have to queue even once or ask for anything. Looking at the sign posts, the staff welcomes any suggestions. The place was quiet in the nights, with quite reasonable silent hours policy. This was a slightly chilly April, so not much noise was coming from the bank-side, even if there is a popular sitting space and a club in the vicinity. I liked the interactions with the staff, who have already a good routine of explaining the important bits concisely, while still friendly - not just servile. I actually felt welcome. Plus point. The place felt secure enough - keys, plus two pin-code protected outside doors.
