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 KingdomThere was a lot of gurgling noises from the plumbing in the bathroom which kept me awake. I think that the towel rail in the bathroom probably needed bleeding - the top was cold, while the bottom was very hot. The staff didn't confirm with me when I checked in how many nights I'd booked for, and unfortunately I'd made a mistake - I intended to book for 3, but had accidentally only booked for 2. This was my fault, but I felt that the reception staff made it much more stressful than it needed to be via a rather angry accusatory phonecall making a lot of assumptions and making demands of additional payment which really shook me up. I feel that if everything had remained polite and professional, I'd have been able to explain my mistake and correct it by paying for the additional night (which I was naturally happy to do!) much quicker and without the upset that was caused to me.
I had a clean and broadly comfortable room, with enough storage space for my bags, a fairly comfortable bed and all the amenities that I like to have (kettle, bath/shower, power sockets, supplied tea/coffee, shampoo.)

United KingdomThe whole place seems tired. Worn down. Some of the furniture in the room was a bit broken. The floor creaked, and made me worry I was disturbing people downstairs. I'm not fond of the number of plastic single-use things in the bathroom. The door didn't fit the frame well, and let in quite a bit of light from the hallway.
The room was warm, dry and clean. There was plenty of hot water, and the towels were fluffy enough. The bed was pretty comfy. I was only there for one night, so I'm struggling for things to comment on.

United KingdomThe staff went to great lengths in satisfying my request for a quiet room (206) which it was. Unfortunately it shared a corridor with another guest who was a heavy smoker, the odour was able to enter my room presumably under the door. Placed a towel on the floor beneath the door in the middle of the night.
Clean competitive price for the area

United KingdomDespite being scrupulously clean, it felt quite run down. Broken sink plug in bathroom, no bedside light (although main lights could be turned off from the bed). Light above sink, flickered constantly and couldn’t be used.
Excellent, helpful staff. Very flexible around check-in times, car parking and calling me a taxi. 24 hour front desk. Nice quiet location, and a very comfortable bed, combined to provide for an excellent night’s sleep.
