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.).

GermanyNothing - I love the property
The property has an amazing architecture and is in my world in the best location of beautiful Hamburg. The staff is fabulous, service oriented, engaged, friendly l, no posh allures at all. The materials used are of high quality, great details in the bathroom, dressing room, bedroom. Wonderful sheets and easy light handling.

United KingdomBreakfast was chaos when we arrieved. It looks like that the staff operates in to many areas,in each others! The buffet room is to small when full outside on seats poeple bumping into each other! To longer waiting time for orders of simple nature's !Breakfast is the most important meal on the day and will set you for the day. In your hotel it gives you stress which is not a good start!!
The evening experience was good.your staff on reception and concierge was very helpful! The room was to our expectations with a view which is one off.

DenmarkIt gives me great pleasure to give feedback on The Fontenay. We have stayed in numerous 5 Star hotels around the world over the last many years and we have never experienced anything like The Fontenay. It is very luxurious, elegantly decorated and has a charming and very welcoming atmosphere with very attentive and professional staff. The location is fantastic right at the beautiful Alster lake. In short it was a magical experience. We shall definitely come back. Thank you all at The Fontenay for making our stay with a truly memorable experience.

United KingdomWe were a little surprised not to have a bath in the bathroom, but other than that ...
From the moment we arrived, the staff were friendly, personable and welcoming. We were given an early check in, which made our silver wedding anniversary so much more of a treat! And from the roof-top spa all the way down to the ground-floor restaurant (breakfast was stunning), everything in this hotel felt impeccably organised and presented. Its lakeside location made it feel restful and natural, even within a bustling and vibrant city. We loved our stay, and would come again tomorrow! What a place, what a space.

SwitzerlandNothing we can think of.
Room, breakfast, facilities all excellent. The bar is a "must have" were it only for the spectacular views of the Alster and the city. We treated ourselves also to a dinner in the Lakeside restaurant. Great menu, very creative and delicious dishes, and the wine pairing offered was for the most part super.

United States-- There wasn't really anything we didn't like except it was not as 'central' as we had envisioned. To get to downtown Hamburg, we either had to take a Taxi or walk for about 30 min which in essence is fine. -- Although we had restaurants and a small grocery store right around the corner, we ended up not leaving the hotel much during our stay :)
-- The staff is incredibly accommodating, helpful and friendly! -- We had booked the Deluxe Room which felt somewhat small for a week long stay. It is definitely worth it to pay extra for the view towards the Alster. -- We had the opportunity to stay for 2 nights in the Executive Suite which was super comfortable and provided an amazing experience! When we come again, we will book the Suite instead of the room. --The hotel is very serene and beautifully located along the Alster which allowed for evening strolls and a very relaxing stay. -- Everything is kept in immaculate condition! The hotel is a 'feast for the eyes'! -- The Parkview restaurant offers a business lunch option and an interesting dinner selection. -- We had booked out stay with breakfast. The buffet offered a great selection in addition to items that could be ordered from a menu as well.

Mexicoshower and bathroom. the sliding doors werde not working and did not close very well. the shower was a disgrace for such kind of a hotel, leaving a mess after every shower and it felt that the water consumption was far too much. So sustainability might not have been the key concept.

LatviaThe size of a single room is tiny. Very basic interior design both in the room and hotel itself, everythinf is just too simple for the price the hotel is charging. Size of the bathroom is very small as well. Breakfast was good but wasn't great, had to wait for quite a long time for the order to be served too. Overall, value for money is not worth it, I would say its a 4* simple hotel, which should be charging half of their price, or even third of it.
The staff was great, the cleaningnes was great, noise isolation was good.
