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.).

PolandIt was really loud, even at night. Disturbing was not only the noise of farm equipment, but also of the nearby pub. Due to leaky windows, we could hear everything from the outside. Hotel rooms should be renovated already, as it needs some refreshment.
Location is great! Close to metro, Kenisgton Park, Hyde Park, Natural Museum History:) Nice to have room service daily

Friendly staff, great location, easy access to the hotel 24h, nice building from outside (loads of character in a nice area), clean bedding, bed was comfortable too; kettle, hair dryer & tv all in working condition, good for 1 night, met my expectations.

United StatesOne of our three beds was severely in need of replacing. There’s also a nightclub operating in the back garden, which is really loud every night. Then in the morning, there’s a construction crew working on the façade, including jackhammers, starting at 8 AM. We had a white noise app that let us sleep through it but it’s definitely worth noting. We went to the supermarket for supplies but it would’ve been nice to have a mini fridge or an option to purchase breakfast at a discounted rate for the week otherwise it’s $10 per person per day which is unreasonable for a family of four.
Location was amazing. It was really clean. The room was completely as advertised and it was a safe and easy community to be in with the supermarket around the corner.

CanadaThe hotel is very very shabby. Moldy carpets, walls badly need painting and patched. No luggage rack or bench for suitcase, no closet or dresser to put things up off the filthy carpet.
Good location. When we complained about the shabby condition of our room we were moved to two rooms that had been partly updated.

IrelandUsed cups were replaced on the tea tray but not the tea bags so on the last night only one of us could have tea. The shower was tricky to get the temperature right. There was no suitcase stand for unpacking.
The bed was comfortable and the room/bathroom were a good size. The property was very quiet. For what we paid it was what we expected - basic - but all the same it was a good place to stay the night. We had been sent instructions to use a self service check-in system but in the end someone was there and the desk was always staffed when we walked by.
