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.).

IsraelThe breakfast could be better. The eggs were cold, no choice of cheese or sausage. The hotel description says it's including transfer. This is misleading, the transfer doesn't work at night, we landed at 2AM - no transfer. And the worst thing is that the hotel staff doesn't answer Booking messages!
The beds are comfy and the room is really big, the shower is good and the wifi works well. The coffee and croissants were really good.

United StatesNo shuttle and no buses from airport to the hotel from midnight till 5 AM, and the one (!) mile ride from airport cost 20 euros by taxi! At the end of November the blanket was not part of the bed, and it was not accessible at all after midnight.
The check-in was open 24/7 and it was a major plus. We were able to use free shuttle to get to the airport in 5 (!) minutes. View of Etna was gorgeous from the balkony. Breakfast was much better than the "standard continental", but not Italian special.

FinlandWe waited the airport transport for 1h 30mins, so I do not recommend to use. They say that airport minibus (Citroen 8-seat van) runs every 30mins, but that is not true. We waited all the time at the correct pick-up location, but it came only after we had called the hotel multiple times. Airport transport from hotel to airport was ok. There are way better hotels further away from the airport with cheaper price.
Close to airport, but not close enough to walk there. Room was big and breakfast was good, but the breakfast room was pretty crowded.

RomaniaThey could have had more two person rooms on booking.com, because half the hotel was empty and we had to book a 4 person room for two people. If you do not book well in advance, you'll probably end up paying 400 euros per night or sleeping on the airport's floors. So book in advance . The restaurant is a bit dark and uninviting.
The pool, the nearby cafe Parisi, the Carabinieri parking lot, the cats, the landlady, the shuttle guy, the waiter's haircut. And as opposed to other reviews, the hotel's restaurant food was quite good, the wine by the glass was okay. Of course they have better more expensive wines.

United KingdomClean, pleasant and convenient. Staff were very efficient and helpful but as a typical airport hotel, there are lots of short stays and people coming and going so they are under more pressure. The rooms and public areas are very spacious and spotlessly clean. Nights are generally quiet and the breakfast is generous. The pool is surprisingly large and there are dramatic views of Etna from the north side of the hotel. Despite some difficulties, the staff went above and beyond to make sure that the airport shuttle got us to the airport in good time (whilst it is only a ten minute walk to the terminal, the lack of pavements makes it exciting!). Overall, excellent value for money.

CanadaThe view from the window. It tries to be a high end hotel but with its location. It is in a very industrial looking area. Also if you look closely, the place is a bit tired. If you don’t like firm beds, this is not the place for you The price was high for shoulder season in that location. I know you pay for the convenience of the airport but still.
The room was large but the lay out was odd. One king bed plus 3 singles. There was room for a massive bathroom but instead there was a large area with just a lone sink in it. There was a balcony but it looked over a derelict factory. The shuttle pick up was speedy. Check in was quick and they were very flexible with check out time Breakfast was good. The usual fair with delicious chocolate croissants

United KingdomSlow response to request for more pillows but they did arrive eventually. Food was passable in fact scrambled eggs were great! More typical of a conference hotel, more a canteen than a restaurant for both dinner and breakfast. Recommend booking airport shuttle as it runs every half hour and gets full easily. You can walk to the terminal in 15 minutes but on mainly central reservation so not easily with big luggage. Bar is expensive. No evident lounge service.
Wonderful large deluxe room with balcony overlooking Etna, spacious with plenty of hot water, good towels. Quiet. Handy restaurant is on site as only a couple of local 'bars' in walking distance. Free shuttle bus. Outdoor pool was quiet and clean. Cheery service in restaurant. Mini bar contains only water which is charged. Handy shop on site for gifts.
