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.).

LithuaniaHeating of the room works intermittently- ometimes hot, sometimes cold. Shower is made that it is almost impossible to avoid some spray of water on the floor.
Breakfast is served by order. It is good quality, but choice is full english breakfast or components. So every day the same. Room is quite confortable, but beds could be better. Good location- 10min by walking to reach Regent street, department of Chemistry. Acroos the street is botacic garden. About 1km to reach river CAM where are walking paths along.

United KingdomCooked part of breakfast was brought out almost as soon as it was ordered, didn't give us time to eat the cereal on offer. Had to ask for it to be kept warm. Specifically asked for well done egg for my mother, but it was under done, white was "snotty", so she couldn't eat it.
The staff were brilliant! Friendly, helpful. The breakfast was lovely for the most part. Room was warm and comfy. Bathroom was immaculate! Free parking a major bonus, easy walk to the centre.

United KingdomI think if you had a physical disability it maybe difficult because there were no lifts and a lot of stairs.
Centennial is a small independent hotel which we all need to support. It was a little quirky and retro in some instances but in a lovely and fun way. The staff were very helpful and friendly from the moment we arrived until we left. The hotel was clean and breakfast was very enjoyable although busy the staff were efficient. Finally, it was only 20 min walk into the centre with an array of bakeries, restaurants and pubs along the way. Cambridge is a beautiful and interesting City, we would definitely return and we would definitely like to return to the Centennial Hotel.
