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 KingdomOur room was on the small side, but there may have been an option for a larger room at booking, but I don't remember as I booked quite some time ago. Lovely room, very clean and had everything we needed.
Great location close to where we needed to be. The staff were very courteous and helpful whilst the room and hotel itself is beautifully styled, tastefully decorated, very comfortable and very clean.

United KingdomThe only very small thing I can mention is about the breakfast, the food is fantastic but the way in which you order it on arrival for breakfast, the waiter seemed to want an answer straight away and mention a English breakfast but it’s not something you can process quickly enough I ended up only getting toast to start with as I don’t like egg they seemed to miss the rest of the breakfast although When my wife’s breakfast came out it was apparent that I did only have toast, when I mentioned to the waiter tho it was only a few minutes before I had it brought out so all goo in the end.
A little Gem ! Just Fantastic, staff incredibly friendly and kind very pleased.

We loved everything about the property, the room was spacious, clean and absolutely quiet as a mouse. The staff were so kind and friendly from start to finish, we arrived around half 12pm and our room was good to go so they let us check in early 😊 We are definitely looking to return for another weekend away so will be looking at booking here! Thank you to everyone at the hotel that made our stay such a breeze and welcoming 😁

The location of the hotel and surrounding neighborhood are fantastic. It was very easy to find the hotel, and we delighted in the closeness to Kensington Gardens -- wandered all around there while waiting for our room (we arrived at noon). Very comfortable lobby, nice breakfast, helpful and friendly staff. The elevators are a bit slow, but we generally walked up the four floors -- room was very pleasant, big tall windows and bright views, nice bathroom, good amenities, not a big room, but bed is comfortable, linens are lovely, very clean!

United KingdomBreakfast room is a little 'cosy'. Cooked breakfast is a little limited, only 1 slice of toast per person, but I'm sure you could perhaps ask for more.
Spacious room with a comfortable bed. Large walk-in shower. Spotlessly clean everywhere and has a real attention to detail. Staff were friendly, helpful and efficient.
