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 KingdomWe experienced a couple of minor niggles - with the TV and the catch on the bathroom door but these were quickly sorted by the hotel and did not in any way detract from our stay.
Our room was much larger than we had expected and very nicely appointed in a "traditional" way with nice touches like the bottles of water and Nespresso coffee machine as well as traditional tea making facilities. The Bed was particularly comfortable and the room temperature ideal - unlike many hotels where it is too hot and not easily controlled. Breakfast selection was ideal for our preferences. On top of this, the location on New Street is unbeatable - with such easy, almost direct, access to New Street railway station and all of Central Birmingham

United KingdomEntering the reception area in a wheelchair is very difficult. The doors are manual, there's no buzzer to ask for assistance and it's not very often you come across this difficulty in corporate hotels.
Good breakfast. Room clean with expected toiletries, etc. Staff very obliging.

United KingdomUnfortunately, we had a couple arguing through the night next door and could hear them word for word as the walls were paper thin, this went on until 2am. The heating fan in the room kept me and my son awake most of the night as starts up every 15 mins. I ordered room service which cost a lot of money for what it was and was inedible, I won’t make that mistake again but I was really disappointed. Breakfast was beautiful as always, however I was given a cup left over from another table which had lipstick on it !! The waitress also gave me a left over milk jug that had been left and already used from another table, this is disgraceful! I don’t expect this from a 4 star hotel. Hopefully this was a one off as I love staying here and so do my children.
Perfectly situated, pretty hotel. Always a pleasure to stay here. Staff at front desk welcoming. Beds very comfortable.
