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 KingdomI was in the room #1 in ground floor and it was a bit noisy with people leaving and entering the hotel.
The room was perfect for a short stay in London. Location of the hotel is very nice (5min from the British Museum and near tube and bus stops). Good breakfast included in the room price (full English Breakfast).

United KingdomSolely my personal opinion and I've lots to rant about it: 1) The purpose of my stay is to take an exam the next day at SOAS. I was spending my time in the room on my first day for my exam preparations. It was my fault to not check if the hotel has a kettle or not, I was just assuming it has. However, I was surprised that the hotel doesn't have a water dispenser. I've stayed at different hotels in the past, even one star hotel has a water dispenser! I spoke to the evening staff, she just plainly said to me: "If we don't have a kettle, we don't have it, you can fill the water in the bathroom and speak to the breakfast team tomorrow" 2) After my exam, I decided to try watching YouTube on TV. For some reason, the TV remote control was not letting me press anything and playing up, IE when I select the right button, it goes to the left. I spoke to the same evening staff again, she said: "If it doesn't work, I can't help with it", eventually after a few attempts, I made it work again lol To summarise my stay: I think I'm just being unlucky to have this evening staff to serve me during my stay, I can assure you that the rest of the staff were not the same standard, they were polite and being really helpful. The room was clean and comfy, nothing to complain about it However, this hotel might not be suitable for large size couples, cuz the bed was small and even the towel was pillow size, I'm a UK size 6-8 person so I'm fine with it, I don't need extra large towels. I felt like it was a bit unfair to the rest of the staff to give a bad review but I still give 10/10.
Full English Breakfast available between 07:15 to 9:00 Warm welcome from a lovely lady when I check in The bed was comfy, I slept for 2 nights without being interrupted by unnecessary noise, I supposed it was because my room wasn't at the front

United KingdomBreakfast was perfectly satisfactory with a cooked option, but the room was a bit gloomy. But I appreciate it cant really be helped as its in the basement so no windows.
Comfortable room, no frills but very clean and a nice bathroom. Free hot drinks in the lounge area was a real plus.

United KingdomGreat location for Leicester Square theatre, around 20 minute walk and around 10 minute walk from Oxford Street. Booked for one night for a theatre show. Fantastic service. Help yourself to hot drinks. Room was spotless and looked like it was very recently refurbished. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast is included and comprised of fresh juice, cereals and an English cooked breakfast with choice of hot drinks. Cooked to order so not cold like a buffet breakfast. Overall a great location, great clean room, great breakfast and a great service. Will definitely stay again when in central London.

United StatesRooms were quite small, with bathrooms small enough that it was hard to shower or dress in there. No fan in the bathroom so everything gets steamy when someone showers.

BelgiumThe cleanliness, the service and above all the staff! Cleanliness 10 out of 10! Top location, one of the best museums in the world is just around the corner from the hotel. For history fans who want to do the museum over several days, this is the perfect hotel. In addition, the neighborhood was calm and there is everything you need around the hotel: shops, restaurants and the underground. What I will remember most is the staff. They were wonderful, very attentive and very kind ! Thank you again !
