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.).

SpainThe parking: quite some distance from the hotel and extremely small - it was a real challenge to park our car and actually manage to get out of it. I think this should have been specified when we requested to book parking,
The hotel is very nice and with a very worm atmosphere. The room although quite small for 4 people was comfortable and very clean and the most comfortable bed! helpful staff and very good breakfast.

GermanyThe room is small (I wonder how much smaller the single would have been!), but fine as I don’t spend much time in hotel rooms anyway. There is no kettle or fridge. The bathroom was tiny, no joke, it was barely bigger than an aeroplane toilet! Taller and bigger people will struggle. I always travel with earplugs and they were useful as sometimes noise carries from hallway / other rooms / road. You have to check in first to get access to the parking space, and they say you can use their delivery space when you check in... except it was blocked off and had a motorbike in it when I arrived. Luckily there was a free space down the road. This sounds like I’m complaining a lot, but I’m not... overall if you come prepared, this is a pleasant stay and I would book again.
This hotel is well located and is excellent value for money. Parking is cheap (16 € per day) for the city centre and it is a big plus of this hotel. Remember you MUST book this though. On street parking is free between 19:00-9:00 if you get stuck. I think I got an upgraded room as I booked a single and got a double instead (room 25). Room is air conditioned which is nice during August. Staff were friendly and helpful.

SwedenPoor noise isolation between the rooms and the corridor. Breakfast was somewhat pricey for the rather limited selection (but still tasty!). I also wish it had been served longer than 9.30 AM on weekends. The routine of leaving your key at the reception every time you go out was a bit cumbersome, but I appreciated having a “real” room key.
Great location just around the corner from Perrache and within walking distance to the rest of Presqu’île and Vieux Lyon. Friendly staff. Air conditioning worked fine but it was nice to be able to open the room window too.

United StatesThe only problem was the cleaning ladies came early. On the plus side, the rooms were very clean. You just have to make sure to get out of the room early. Also, I do not recommend the breakfast - it would be more worthwhile to hop into town for breakfast.
The location was fantastic - walking distance from town with beautiful property. Staff was very welcoming and helpful.

United KingdomRoom rather small and not much of a view.
Easy to find from Via Rhona - a key factor for first time visitors to Lyon. They especially welcome cyclists with a free cold drink on arrival and more importantly - a free laundry service! Staff friendly, breakfast good, secure bike space. Hotel Simplon is also close to Gare Perrache for train, tram, metro and bus services.

United KingdomRoom was a little small, and lacked a convenient bedside table - the only shelf or flat surface was on the other side of the room. So a bit difficult to lay down books and phone, etc, conveniently at night.
Very convenient location a few minutes' stroll from Perrache station in one direction and sights and restaurants of Presqu'Ile district easily accessible in the other; a pleasant twenty-minute walk to Vieux-Lyon, and metro station at Ampere round the corner. Really pleasant, quiet, comfortable lounge - a nice place to read. Good value. Has some individual character.
