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 StatesIt was like going through a maze to get in and out of the unit, up and down flights of stairs, several doors and a courtyard. Airflow in the unit was very poor, the windows only open a little bit and needed to be open at all times, there are no fans to move the air around. Bathrooms, while clean and attractive are lacking of convienence items, such as clothing hooks, soap dishes, shower soap or shampoo shelf. Would have appreciated a TV in the bedroom.
The location of the building is fantastic, close to attractions and transportation. Unit was roomy, modern, clean and comfortable. Having 2 bathrooms was great. Having a dishwasher and laundry was nice.

United StatesThe instructions to find the address caused by the incorrect zip code associated with the given address, made it challenging to find the location upon my arrival. Despite reaching out for assistance by calling the provided number, it took longer than expected to locate the correct unit, even with the help of a local friend. To add to the confusion, I wasn't aware that both the front gate and the outside door codes were the same, which caused stress when I couldn't open the front door. Unfortunately, these issues resulted in a delay in my arrival at the event I had traveled from the U.S. to attend. Additionally, the video provided to find the unit once inside the building was incorrect. It would have been helpful if a photo of the outside of the building had been provided for reference. I appreciate your understanding and hope these suggestions can improve the experience for future visitors
I found the unit to be exactly what I needed. It was impeccably clean and well-organized, making my stay comfortable and hassle-free.

OmanDespite some construction noise from the next building, which was a bit disturbing at times, it didn't significantly impact our overall experience. The convenient location, comfortable amenities, and the host's hospitality made our stay enjoyable!
Our family had a wonderful 4-night stay at the cozy 2-bedroom apartment near Buckingham Palace. From the convenient location to the comfortable amenities, our experience was fantastic in every way. The proximity to Buckingham Palace and other close by tourist attractions made sightseeing a breeze, and the apartment itself was beautifully maintained and equipped with everything we needed. The host's hospitality and attention to detail truly made our stay memorable. We highly recommend this apartment for anyone looking for a delightful stay in London!

The property was very well decorated, lovely & clean. We could tell the apartment had just been renovated to a high standard. The location was excellent, we could see the Changing of the Guard from our room windows. Communication to access the property was great too. Will definitely visit again.

United KingdomThe attraction of this place is its incredible location - right on the corner with St James's Park and Buckingham Palace, it really is great to wake up and walk around this area before the crowds arrive, or have an evening walk after they've gone. It's also very convenient. It's a very comfortable modern apartment.

PortugalIt was very complicate to get in the first night because of the Keyless system they have. the codes were not precise at the very first. Bathrooms needs a soap holder. Beds are kind of small. and the dishwasher never worked because it was defective.
Quick responsive staff. Good Localization and fresh painted apartment.

IrelandSome of the appliances did not work, for example the oven which is not ideal for self catering. The coffee machine leaked so we could not use it. It did not matter too much to us as the location was very easy to eat out. The second bedroom was by a corridor and was noisy. Minor enough things.
The location of the Apartment was excellent. We stayed in Block C a 2 bedroom apartment. It was my wife and I and our 4 year old. Plenty of space. The en-suites were very handy. Access was easy. It was clean. Overall we had a great stay and experience.

Had 3 bedrooms in both apartments but in basement room only 1 full an 2 twin beds. We had 5 people in each room booked, not enough for a 3 bedroom. luckily with some little kids so not too bad.

United KingdomWe were staying the building C and we were not told of the other door we could have used. Also the WiFi was an issue, did tell the receptionist. It was clean enough but I am a bit fussy so noticed dust in places where I would expect it to be cleaned (like the shirking boards)
I liked the look and location of the property. The flat was spacious, had comfortable beds and easy to use gadgets. The staff were lovely, including trying to help us out when we needed them to.
