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.).

PortugalThe room was a little bit small for 6 people. Even worse when people are messy and occupied the space with their belongings. The private toilets should have been cleaned every day.
The breakfast is amazing - it has a lot of options. The staff was really sweet and always ready to help. The location is perfect - near to everything (supermarkets, underground, restaurants, etc).

New ZealandThe staff were generally unhelpful. We had an issue with our water for two days . They offered us another room but we decided to stay put and wait for maintenance - as substitute room was smaller. They offered us the use of adjoining room to shower in until 9.00 following morning. We went to have a shower early the next day we were denied access. The person on reception said it was under managers instructions. Our toiletries were in the other room and it just got to be a stalemate . It was a very distressing and unnecessary situation for this to have happened.
The location and cleanliness of the property. We had a room with our own bathroom. A basic but adequate breakfast was offered.

FranceOne of the inconvienient is that you can't sit on the bed because it's too small. The other thing is the noise from the others room, because a group of young teenager didn't really respect the others people.
Hostel is in great location, near to Hyde Park and groceries at 5 min by walking. It's confortable for few nights. The bathroom is in the room and not in the hallway, which is perfect.

Czech RepublicThough the hotel has a quite-hours-policy at night, there was a lot of noise from the next room from a group of young sportsmen who spent the night there as well. Plus at times you could hear a creaking noise of the beds when someone close to you turned from one side to another. That being sad, this would be the only setback of this place, I guess. Overall, I really liked my stay in the hostel and will certainly consider it again when booking my next stay in London now I know how comfortable I felt in this place.
I was really surprised how nice and clean this hostel in London was (it is something you shouldn't take for granted here in the UK:). Thanks to the kind receptionist, I was placed into a 6-bed--female-dorm on the first floor and so had an easy access to both outside and a kitchen located downstairs. The room itself was not very spacious, but clean enough, with big bunk beds with curtains and electric outlets for charging mobiles. There was also a private bathroom with a bath that I found clean and nice. The kitchen in the basement was well equipped although quite busy during the mornings and evenings. However, you could kill some time by going for a little walk into nearby Hyde park, haha.

PortugalThe hot water in the bathroom had no pressure and it was very hard to take a quick and proper bath.
The location is fantastic, close to Hyde park, and there's bus stops and underground very near. It's also a quiet area with restaurants and supermarkets. The hostel is very cozy and the staff is very welcoming. The room was a private room with private bathroom in the top floor and it was very quiet and nice little place for the four of us with plenty of space.

United KingdomHad to make my bed which was at level 3, right at the ceiling, pretty challenging I would say, while standing on a poor, tiny thin-metal ladder which does not feel safe at all. And I'm 77 kg, can't imagine somebody who's 100+ using it without breaking it. 1 toilet per room seems enough, but some person took it for 1 HOUR in the morning so I couldn't use it...
10 min walk from Paddington train station. Clean.
