How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

There were scarce accurate instructions on how to locate and enter the building. Only the assistance of a friendly neighbour allowed me to gain entrance to the building. A very distressing, time wasting and extremely frustrating situation. The building his not signed, nothing to indicate what it is and I had difficulty phoning someone to gain entry. There was a digital device to gain entry after leaving the building, but unfortunately mine was not working, resulting in having to wait two ours in the cold evening until another guest to arrive to open the door .and let me in. Very disappointing situation.
Large well appointed apartment

It says it accommodates up to 6 people, we booked on 6 people but only 5 came. We were very thankful the 6th didn’t come when we saw the sofa bed. To say you pay the same price per person you would expect the sofa bed to atleast be sturdy. There also wasn’t any hot water for us to take showers in the morning.
The apartment was very nice, modern and clean.

Small bedroom which meant one side of the bed was against the wall, which I personally don't like. No surface in the bedroom to put anything on apart from a tiny lamp table.When we arrived the wardrobe door was hanging off it's hinges. We reported this & had a very quick email response from both management & housekeeping team so I'm sure this will be sorted.
Perfect location

I found the pre-arrival process quite difficult. I was contacted on the Sunday evening (I was staying on the Monday) to pay a £150 deposit over the phone. I had read the policy and knew the deposit was required but had concerns about payments being off of Booking.com and out of banking hours so asked to pay at the property. This meant I wasn't given any pre-arrival stuff beforehand. There is no physical reception so had to call when I arrived and make the payment and then wait to be instructions through Booking.com. Payment was held for the full seven days. It is also difficult to find the lock boxes with the keys inside, which are tucked away in the car park. Once I was inside, my stay was great.
The apartment was clean and well presented throughout. The location was perfect for me too as it was very close to the city centre. I had a comfortable one-night stay but could have easily stayed longer.

I didn't receive sufficient instructions on how to locate and enter the property. Only succeeded through the assistance from the doorman. Not good enough for the quality of the establishment.
