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.).

We had some issues in the room and reported them but so far they remained unsolved until we left. Although we have announced the age of our toddler but we didn't have a proper Cot for him, instead they gave us an extra bed which was very uncomfortable.
Staff were friendly, Room was clean and Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was fine but it will be better if they add some fresh Fruits to the menu. A coffee machine instead of instant coffee will improve the guest's morning mood.

This place is in a great location, About 10 min walk to the beach and to the restaurants. Plenty of stores nearby as well. The building looks quite new and the interior is new as well. Rooms are spacious and beds are comfy. Bathrooms fully stacked up. Breakfast very tasty and with nice selection, I consider this place as a good value for money with a great location and plenty of parking around

The view outside was terrible and the wardrobe wouldn’t open/shut very well at all. There was very limited food selection and very little familiar food varieties for my European friend so he was hungry.
I liked the food, the room and the staff. The staff were excellent. They were very welcoming and even offered help with travel, activities and anything logistics-wise which we might’ve needed help for. This was very helpful in the end and even saved us some morning. The staff were also very hospitable and gave us a room upgrade due to us being unable to stay the first night. The room (suite) was very spacious and had an excellent bathroom. The fridge was also a terrific, underrated edition to the kitchen. Overall, we were very impressed.

One of our doors's lock didn't function well.
Everything was suitable for us. Location was excelent, a few steps from the historical places. Rooms were large and cleen. Breakfast was enough for us. The receptionist was etraordinary, was very kind and helpful in every little thing we needed, e.g. practical of advise how we can reach certain points in the city the easiest way and where we can find the best money exchange rate. We enjoyed our stay in this hotel the first day we arrived in Amman so much that it was no question which hotel we should book for the last day of our round trip.
