How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Bedroom pods were not great quality and there was a lot of noise transfer between rooms and from the bathroom pod. Some staff were not particularly helpful when we arrived. Interior styling in the bedroom was a bit odd.
Styling of hotel lobby and good breakfast. Comfortable bed and clean rooms.

Space in room not utilized to full potential. Some hairs in the bed at check-in. Breakfast is low effort: cafeteria style pre-staged dry, over oily eggs, sausage, bacon, etc. Park located across the road populated with single adult men at all hours, not the hotels fault but it is part of location and worth mentioning to those who intend to be out late as we were.
For London, in this price range, it’s a decent hotel for a 1-2 night stay. A short ride to most sites of interest. Room was quiet. Staff were nice.

Could have done with better lighting and more sockets in the room. Hearing was by a/c only but warm once worked out how to use it. Could have done with some instructions
We wanted to be the tower bridge side of London so for us location was idea. But if you want shopping on Oxford street then this is not the place. The room was quirky but due to the nature of the pod design for the bed and bathroom and all the electrics being attached to that not enough sockets in the room or near the mirrors. But we loved the quirky bits of the room and the breakfast was amazing

The sliding door of the bathroom was pretty heavy, but this was only the case in our room. The other two rooms that we rented as a family did not have this small 'issue'.
Great breakfast with lots of choices. Friendly staff. Good location close to subway station. We really liked the beds as they were very friendly for our backs. Modern room.

Lack of window meant just using AC and the rooms / hallways aren’t the most quiet. Can hear a lot of moving neighbours / cleaners in morning which can bit a bit disturbing.
Nice hotel, very quirky decor but clean and comfortable, fantastic location and staff always on hand at reception.

No tea or coffee making facilities in the room, had to walk down a couple of corridors to make a cuppa. Not keen on the location but we only stayed 2 nights so it suited what we needed it for.
Quirky room made a good impression. Didn’t speak to the staff much but when we did they were very polite.

Snug room does not have a window (this is advertised as such, so not a criticism for the hotel), but it does feel a little stuffy in these rooms as a result. The AC was noisy.
Great vibe at the hotel. Easy check-in. Good facilities. Toiletries provided.
