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 StatesNo lift. Stairwell was tiny, couldn't manage getting baggage up and down but staff kindly helped. Not sure I'd have been able to get down those stairs fast enough in an emergency, like a fire.
Pleasant staff, good location in safe neighborhood, small but comfy room. Grocery and cafes close by.

NetherlandsThat is a little hard to say.. The only thing that could say is that when I wanted to extend a 3-th night the costs where a bit to high compared with the first 2 nights. But then again, there was no single room available on the premises.
The room was clean and tidy. The staff was very friendly. They advised me well about transportation about my whereabouts. After the check-out in the morning my luggage was well-kept collected it in the evenning.

United KingdomThe USB sockets in the room didn't work. There was only one cup provided despite it being a twin room. There isn't a lift so carrying luggage could be an issue.
Very conveniently located for Paddington train station. Room was small but comfortable. One towel each and beds were narrow but for one night totally acceptable.

United KingdomThe room had a French door/window leading onto a tiny decked 'courtyard' . The door would not lock. IT NEEDS FIXING PLEASE. I slept with a chair in front of it although it opened outwards. Tea and coffee making facilities in the room would have been wonderful.
A five minutes walk from Paddington tube and railway.. A very pleasant and helpful young man on reception. I was allowed to upgrade from a single with lots and lots of stairs to a double on the lower ground for a small fee and no fuss. A very clean room, en suite shower and wc. Clean, fresh white bed linen and towels and soap provided. Lots of hot water to shower. Comfortable double bed.

AustraliaShower and bathroom was quite small. The hotel was noisy around the rooms and can hear everything like foot steps above or below you. A few facilities in the bathroom were broken but wasn’t a big issue
Daily room service was great with fresh towels each day. Staff were friendly and the location is great as it’s a couple minute walk to paddington station and a bunch a food shops all around

I got a real deal on the price through booking.com paying only £44.00 for a night. So everything was good. Had I paid the normal going rate I wouldnt have been so pleased. The room was comfortable and warm, with an en suite shower and toilet. There was tea and coffee making facilities but no biscuits, but for £44.00 you wont hear any complaints from me lol.

United KingdomThe room was absolutely freezing. I am used to cold, but this was another level. It was a very cold day - much colder than most December and January days. I froze and had to get up to have a hot shower to warm myself up
This is one of many hotels in the locality. It is - like many - Indian-owned, so you can be sure of a kind welcome, which I received. The staff were very sweet' . This particular hotel is at the Hyde Park end, so the location has a pleasant and upmarket feel about it. The hotel is convenient for transport - bus, tube and Paddington Station, It does not offer food, but that is no problem with many choices of places to eat very near by. The shower was good, with lashings of hot water.

LatviaThere were no breakfast available, but there were stores and cafes close to the hotel. Not all of the lights in the room were working. The showers could use some updates as it was quite worn out.
Location was easy to find and close to Paddington station. Few minute walk from Hyde park and 20-30min walk from London Zoo. Staff was friednly and rooms were cleaned every day. Beds were comfortable to sleep in. There was AC in the Family room.
