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 KingdomAt only 4"11, the toilet was so high that I couldn't touch the floor. Same goes for my 5"4 friend. The beds weren't very comfy, but they were sleep-able. No parking, had to get an uber from our car to the hotel, only £5 though.
The location was very close to various bars and late night shops, as well as the tube station. Great value for money and spacious room and bathroom. Biplob was wonderful - give that man a raise.

United KingdomWe had a room on the bottom floor, right beside the front door and the stairs. Due to this we sadly were woken up multiple times. Every time anyone arrived or left the hotel we could hear everything. Not good if you’re a light sleeper.

United KingdomHaving to pay a charge (admittedly only a pound but it’s the principal) when the hotel already had my card details from me paying for the room. To take this payment they wouldn’t accept contactless despite there being a contactless option on the card machine - it just seemed very out of touch with current times. When we queried the charge we were told to look in the small print on the paperwork given but it wasn’t there which we pointed out. We were told it was in the policies however and to prove the point we were shown a folder of other guests who had signed and paid but this seems like a breach of GDPR as it was showing us details of other guests and made me concerned that mine were shown or will be in similar situations.
Great location, good price, nice room decor, comfy beds and I liked the coffee machine in the room. Also the waterfall shower was nice.

United KingdomI didn't like the bars on the outside of the window as we were on the lower ground floor, although the window does open for fresh air. There were bits in the bathroom sink and the base of the shower frame needs a deep clean.
Good location a few mins walk from Paddington station. Comfy bed. No noise. Everything you need is in the room, iron and board, TV, safe, toiletries. Good value for money.

DenmarkThe lighting could have been better, e.g. reading lights by the bed. There was only ceiling lighting in the room. The double bed was a bit narrow, but not a problem.
Small, old hotel, 4 minutes' walk from Paddington Station. We had a ground floor room, spacious for two persons, nice and clean, and lots of warm water in the rainforest shower. Coffee and tea were complimentary, and there was also a microwave and a fridge in the room.

United KingdomI think more investment should be made in the experience for hotel-stayers and this will pay itself off easily. For example, upgrading the sash windows to double-glazing, re-decorating walls, investing in improved cleanliness of the mattress/sheets, and more investment in things like the tea and coffee provided. I really think this would mean the hotel could charge more per night and would allow owners to reclaim any money spent quickly.
Nice staff. Good location. Generally OK but I did think there could be improvements.
