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.).

CanadaThe SkyBar menu and food. Thus gave the hotel a 9 instead of a 10.
We were tired and still jetlagged when we arrived from Vienna (after a morning city tour before we left Vienna and a visit to a castle on the way to Budapest). Masi was at Reception and was really great at getting us settled in. We loved loved loved our room - perfect - with chocolates on the pillow to top it off. The room was spacious, the bed comfortable, the bathroom functional and the shower great. The hotel's theme is music and the choice of music and decor was really good. As for the restaurant SkyBar, we went for dinner upon our arrival. The view is fabulous. Unfortunately, our dinner not so much; my friend had a steak that was inedible as she told the waiter who apologized. My burger was fine but I was skeptical of the menu after my friend's experience so we didn't return. On the other hand, breakfast was really good with plenty of choice. The hotel's location is great with: a currency exchange across the street (you do need some forints in the city (it opens at 10 AM but you can use your card for the cash machine if it's not open), St Stephan's close by, the Jewish Quarter a short walk away and lots of restaurants in the area.

United StatesA small gripe about TIP : Remove the mention of TIP and "service charge" from your receipts. The price must include everything. A TIP once used to mean something but not anymore. Now it is an occasion for absurdity and awkwardness.
Excellent location, attentive staff.

United KingdomNothing apart from the Wifi in our room (poor signal) and the taxi company they arranged for our transit to the airport. We paid in HUFs to get rid of our cash and the driver gave me change (2000 HUFs I think). Found out when I tried to spend the note in the airport that it was no longer legal tender (withdrawn in 2017). I hope that this was an honest mistake by the driver but it left a sour taste in the mouth. Be careful when dealing with cash in Hungary.
Fantastic boutique hotel within 1 min walk to the Basilica and 10 mins to the Danube/ Chain Bridge. Staff could not have been nicer and more helpful. Got an upgrade to a suite when we arrived which was huge! This also meant that we had our own private lift (covered all the large suits at the front of the building). Breakfast options were fantastic and you could stay there for a week and not have to have the same thing twice. Great roof terrace for drinks or a meal.

United KingdomOur room was not cleaned properly - dirty cups, empty bottles, empty evening chocolate spoons were left, bins were not emptied or removed. We were not allowed to use the roof area during the morning and feel as residents this should have been allowed until it opened to others in The afternoon- we would have enjoyed a morning coffee up there and as a 5* hotel, you would expect this facility- as a small boutique hotel with relatively few guests, we also feel all residents should have access to drink at the roof bar without booking… we appreciate it is necessary to book to eat but again a 5* hotel perhaps should not limit its paying guests.
Lovely staff, good soap products, nice spa, great location and concierge helped book tickets. Breakfast was fantastic! Very comfortable beds and lovely linen.

For a 5 star experience in Budapest don't look anywhere else and just book The Aria! Everything is exceptional. The hotel, the location and the unassuming yet professional, courteous hotel staff made the stay such a pleasure. The pool area after a day site seeing was perfect. The afternoon complementary wine and cheese is a lovely touch and the rooftop bar in the evening is in a stunning setting.
