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 KingdomOn arrival I noted that the safe in the room was not operational. It seems the battery was dead. I mentioned this several time to the reception but it seemed that they did not have access to the batteries. After two nights I gave up asking.
I had a great view over the River Rhine. The facilities were as described. Wifi was good. Although not included in the price there were good facilites for breakfast, and I also had a lunch there.

United KingdomThe room was small for some, but fine for me. The guy on reception was a bit grumpy - I was offered no maps (which i found were available on day 2), but the guy when I left was pleasant.
This was great value for money. It was a small room on top floor but fine for me for 2 nights. There was a working lift. I even had a view of the Dom towers from my windows! I also had a TV, desk & chair. Hangers and shelves for clothes. The location has many food & drink place right outside the hotel on the river, some with great river views. Considering how close the hotel is to these venues my room (facing away from the river) was really quiet. No street noise at all, just a distant rumble of metros going over river bridges, but not disturbing). Ten minutes walk from main train station and the Dom. Very close to Old Town for walking & sightseeing. Tip: I found the tram from Heumarkt more user friendly to get into the centre rather than the Metro from the main station (I found the Metro confusing).

NetherlandsWhile lovely, the hotel is starting to show its age. It's not dirty or unclean, but there are some stains here and there, and small holes in the carpet, stuff like that. The beds in our room were also just a little bit sagged and I could see some springs sticking out through the bottom of the bed. Some of the lights were not working, either, but there are so many lights in the room that this is not an issue at all. Nothing major though. This place is excellent value for the prices they ask, especially considering the location.
This cute and cozy little hotel is located very conveniently overlooking the Rhine. The view on that side is great, and the staff was exceedingly friendly and helpful. We arrived early but could already go up to our room and leave our stuff there. The rooms have everything you need, including basic toiletries. The WiFi worked great during our stay, too, in contrast to some of the other reviews. The location is ideal for exploring the city. It's within walking distance to some of the major tram/metro locations and the central train station, as well as to the Dom.

United StatesThe room was very much less than expected with its well worn furniture, two holes in the carpet, and a bathroom which had a shower some 9" higher than the finish floor. There was no heat in the bathroom, which was an issue. My room, #42, was in the attic was where the othe 5 rooms on the 4th floor and they too suffered from gabled ceilings.
The staff, with the exception of two VERY LOUD, wait staff, were courteous, attentive, and very helpful. The property was very close to the Cathedral and other attractions, and the central train where the S19 train got you to the airport for 3.80€

TurkeyI think some rooms (including the one I stayed in) can make a lot of noise at night because they face the side where the generator or similar device is located. It didn't bother me much, but it may be a difficult situation for those who are sensitive about this issue.
I was welcomed very well from the moment I entered the hotel.

AustraliaHotel Kunibert offered a great location to base ourselves for the two-night stay. We arrived by car and used the recommended underground car park that we exited on foot with luggage onto Mulengasse just opposite the Hotel. As a family of 5, we booked a double room and a triple room - upon request the hotel happily provided these rooms close together. The rooms are clean and basic in their offering - a comfortable bed, and a small shower/toilet room. Perfect really if you have no intention of staying in them any longer than to sleep and wash. This was fine for us as nearly every waking hour we were out taking in the sights of Cologne, visiting as many Christmas Markets as we could, ice skating and walking the many cobbled lanes and streets, or along the waterfront where the Rhein flowed. There is a small lift (better than none at all) which was greatly appreciated to get luggage up to and down from the rooms. Being in a fairly busy area, street noise can be heard from the rooms, but we didn't find it too bad. There is no tea/coffee, kettle, fridge etc in the rooms. Early each morning we walked up to a little cafe and enjoyed a cappuccino. We ate breakfast and dinner at the hotel restaurant situated on ground level and out front. We enjoyed the meals and the quick service (a basic expectation of every diner everywhere I would think) but disliked the expectation of a tip every single time. Overall Hotel Kunibert for us, was perfectly located for Cologne sightseeing and Christmas Markets

AustraliaThis property is a little run down, which is reflected in the price. However, one issue that you may want to consider is the shower. The door was broken and the water temperature changes throughout your shower, often scolding you.
Great location, the view of the Rhein is amazing. Walk to many local attractions and right next to the Christmas markets, if you are visiting in December.
