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.).

CanadaRoom was spacious and had all the amenities, the dressing/closet area was my favorite part since it had ample room. The Hotel policies were explained clearly and they are environment friendly in their approach. Will recommend this place for families, easy access to nearby attractions and safety. Special mention for Diana who checked us in, Manager Dinesh who coordinated reservations on booking.com and Food Manager Murugan.

United KingdomStaff were good on arrival but they were not so helpful when it came to suggestions on tourism or travel. Also a bit slow. Breakfast was not ready in the morning at the said time, super slow service which is not ideal when you have somewhere to be.
Amazing location, right in the heart of the french quarters. Room size was really good, nice, clean, and well kept. I would stay here again.

SingaporeCould have more hooks in the bathroom and room to hang clothes and towels. There were mosquitoes in the room (even though we kept doors and windows closed) perhaps because it was raining when we were there.
Excellent location. Room was spacious and clean. Good bed and extra pillows. Slept very well there because there is option to use the ceiling fan instead of AC, which is a huge plus for me. Bathroom also spacious though a little dark. Good shower and good toiletries. Netflix available in the room tv (need your own account). Breakfast was good. Love the strong cardamom chai! Staff are friendly and helpful.

IndiaWI-FI is very patchy. Toiletries are not replaced without request. They need to do something about mosquitoes - just 1-2 but they do disturb sleep. Plus the ceiling fan is not above the bed. Cost on par with five star but not all facilities like a five star mainly 24 hour room service or a large swimming pool.
Nice and clean rooms. Great Location and a very good restaurant. Loved the breakfast spread. Helpful staff - exceptional service from Rajesh and others. My 2 kids were down with indigestion and the chef accommodated a request for curd rice for lunch. The chef seems to do a great job - every food item is up to the mark.

United KingdomNothing, really. Provides a very similar standard to similar (but much more expense) hotels nearby.
Central location, close to lots of restaurants; rooms are quite spacious, clean. Breakfast is fine, quality of food is good but selection is not hugely elaborate (this is not a huge five star hotel, so I wouldn’t expect that). Diana on Front Office was very helpful and ensured we had any assistance we needed, including car hire for the day.

IndiaNo wardrobe in room. I personally prefer rooms which have access to natural light. The room we stayed in had window facing the lobby which was quite narrow. So had to keep the window closed. But this was just a minor inconvenience. Overall an extremely pleasant stay!

IndiaFor a rather expensive hotel, rooms do not have a proper cupboard. TV is distant and too small.
Well located in the heart of White town. Generously large rooms. Friendly staff, good breakfast. The restaurant serves a delicious menu. The swimming pool though small, very relaxing.

GermanyA few things could be improved: Wifi was patchy and sometimes not working at all. Breakfast options, especially continental breakfast, were limited and the same every day. Given the price and four star rating, one would expect more.
Staying at Grand Hotel D‘Europe was overall a nice and comfortable experience. The rooms are spacious and with modern, well maintained equipment. Everything, especially the bathroom, was meticulously clean. Staff was very welcoming, helpful and friendly.

FranceI could have put a note up to 10/10 but unfortunately a staff of this hotel was not friendly and was unpleasant which lowers the note. Indeed, we had the right to have breakfast in our room and this one wanted to refuse for an unknown reason. Once the complaint was made to the manager, he no longer said hello during our visits, I find it unacceptable for an employee to react in this way! He does not realize the image that this can send back. Apart from this problem, the other members of staff were very welcoming and caring.
The hotel was very clean and functional.
