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.).

FranceThe blanket could have been larger for two adults.
Very good location, close to underground and bus stops. Breakfast was tasty, however, keep in mind that there are mostly sweet options. Our room was spotless, especially bathroom facilities. We did notice a slight noise from the passing trains but you really need to listen closely to hear it, it wasn't a problem for us, it didn't bother us at night. The staff was always there to welcome, help and advise us, very professional and nice people.

GermanyIt’s good value for money in London, but be aware that the no-window rooms lie underground and might feel a bit claustrophobic.
Easy check in, even though we were an hour early. Facilities seem simple & small but clean.

SwedenFor some reason it was impossible to pay with a Mastercard through Booking.com, but after contacting the hotel directly they helped us solving the issue of paying. Missed a wardrobe in my room.
Nice and tidy hotel with excellent and very helpful personell. A good startingpoint to everything: shops, cafés, restaurants and sightseeing. It was easy to find a taxi on the street to take you around London and close proximity to Paddington Station made it easy to hop on the Express train to and from the airport .

AustriaSingle members of staff showed some attitude (seemed annoyed or bemused); Room was a bit small, cushions were rather hard; Bathroom was a bit dusty, relatively small, could hear everything through bathroom door, which might be unpleasant or embarrassing;
Staff was generally nice, all members of staff were forthcoming and helpful; Room was quiet, beds were comfortable, room was clean; Toilet on ground floor is a live saver, as is the elevator when you're travelling with big luggage;

FranceI wish we had a kettle in a room or a in lobby area to make some tea/coffee without paying 2 pounds for each cup of tea downstairs... The same goes for a microwave oven that would be a perfect appliance to consider in a lobby area.
The hotel is well located with the Hyde Park just a few min away. The room is clean and nice, renovated. The bed was comfy, the staff were friendly and helpful. We could leave the luggage after the check-out. there is a spacious area downstairs where you can have snacks.

IrelandThe room was very small, I wouldn't stay more than 2 or 3 nights due to the size of the room. I was unable to open my suitcase without it blocking the bathroom door or the front door. The door of the room was badly fitted, so it was banging all night which effected our sleep. The shower head could also be improved. It would also be good if there was more than just 2 plug sockets on one side of the bed.
The location was perfect, close to Padding Station and Edgware Road Station. The staff were friendly, room was clean and the price was good for the location in London.

IcelandThe room was quite small though I did expect that, but the bed was also smaller than I expected which was not comfortable enough.
The location was very good, walking distance to Paddington station. The service we got was always very good, they always tried to help in any way they could. This was a nice three star hotel which delivered mostly the expectations.

United KingdomAlthough I can sleep in most circumstances some may find background room light from mirror and other subtle lighting disturbing and as room effectively basement, then was some noise/vibration from underground trains. Stopped/reduced 1 am ish and resumed 6 am ish I think, but not an issue for me one night.
Good location for purpose of visit. Staff really welcoming and helpful. Able to drop luggage early and pick up late on day of departure. Modern, smart, clean facilities - booked twin room no windows to suit a one night stay when just sleeping in room main purpose. Good price for that - though some nearby hotels did include breakfast for same or slightly less.

United KingdomRoom was a little on the small side, but we were only there for 1 night so was fine for our needs. Close to Paddington’s station. Breakfast was good, but a little confusing. Big queues of people waiting for seats. You have to order your tea / coffee at counter then get a tray to select your own items then find a seat. It was maybe a busy day but we had to stand around for a short while until someone left. Staff friendly and helpful and overall it was positive.
Location. Self check in. Breakfast.
