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.).

AustraliaCould hear noisier guests arriving back to the hotel during the night, but mostly very quiet and slept well.
The room was very spacious, cosy, clean and comfortable. It was nice to have a small table and a chair in the room too. The Hotel Breakfast was really good and well priced. Free parking was also a bonus. Hotel staff were lovely and extremely helpful. Enjoyed the very pleasant walk into town from the hotel.

United StatesThe place is too far from downtown to walk; however, it is a good value for the area. If you are given a room on a higher floor, be sure to ask them to send your bags up in the lift. We weren’t offered this when checking in, but we learned of it when we were leaving the next morning.

CanadaDark hallways - we asked twice to get more light to see the keyhole, and both times, the desk person said someone had turned the hall light off. A charmless neighborhood beside a hospital and dog track. We put the bathroom fan on to try to dry things out and could hear it all the way down the stairs! We stayed in nicer places for less money.
Excellent bar and very good breakfast, large room, comfortable bed.

IrelandEverything was perfect. Radiator wasn’t working in the room and was a bit of a cold, night reception worker went out of his way to bring an electric heater to our room within 5 minutes excellent customer service. No elevator lift which wasn’t a big problem as wasn’t a lot of stairs.
Staff at reception are very good at their job so welcoming when we stepped inside such a calm friendly tone of voice.

United KingdomAn iron in the room would have been handy. The hairdryer was very old and so not very powerful.
We had a great stay here, the car park was really useful for us and the rooms were lovely and a good size. We walked into the centre of Kilkenny which took about 25 minutes and got a taxi home so the location was no bother for us. Nice big showers and comfy bed.
