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 KingdomRon outdated, bathroom needs a refit, asked for quiet room and was put on a road where frankly it was like no window was in place as again, these need replacing, basic coffee and tea, kettle didn’t work, air con rattled continuously all night…. Not what I expect from a 4* in central London. More 3* compared to others we have stayed at.

Japan… no memo paper and pen for when suddenly one gets a call with someone giving an unfamiliar address… so somewhat chaotic trying to find something to write on. Otherwise practically perfect.
Generally the room was almost perfect… but

FranceThe telephone in the bedroom did not work. I called it to the attention of reception and was told to press + before dialing. There is no + on the dial pad. After dinner, reception told me the technician reported that my phone was working. It was not working and the technician came to my room around midnight and told me that my phone was not working. The problem was complicated and many phones in the hotel were not able to dial outside the hotel.
Most services were very good.

United KingdomThe room was very disappointing, with the wow factor of the reception area etc & the nightly cost i expected the room to be stunning . Very basic , was like walking into a premier inn bedroom . The bathroom was tiny & the fan didn’t work . There was no room to move around the beds etc & the air con unit in the room did not work . Very limited tea & coffee making supplies in the room & again very basic , I’ve had better in a premier inn. Very limited plug sockets in the room .
The reception area was stunning , the breakfast was excellent, the bar was reasonably priced & very relaxed with a nice atmosphere . The staff were lovely, very welcoming & nothing was to much trouble .

United KingdomThe rooms require some updating / maintenance- such things as air con filter thick with dust when entering the room, bathroom toilet roll holder hanging off the wall, damaged furniture in the room and what looked like mould on the windows (didn’t realise until the day we left ! )
On arrival the property looked really nice, and had a lovely welcome. The location was good.
