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.).

IrelandToo many staff I found that annoying at least 4 separate guys at check in to just handle our passport was overkill. The property is very tired.Our bathroom had a waste issue problem & the smell was strong. Told reception and they did say they would sort it but we’re surprised either so I reckon it’s a reoccurring problem! The Dinner menu was poor in my opinion as not everyone wants an overpriced buffet.
I wouldn’t come back unfortunately.Nice chill out area if you were travelling with a group tour this hotel would be perfect as it’s a pit stop but overall I didn’t enjoy the vibe.Wifi was strong to work from & the shower was good. The piano was playing and loads kids just running up and down the halls for hours it wasn’t a very zen spot and the views were poor from our room too.Loads of stairs to carry your bags up and down too & no lift. It’s a one night MAX stopover hub but even at that I just wouldn’t be able to recommend.

IndiaDuring my booking I asked for a higher floor good mountain view room. I think I checked around 4 pm and I was allotted a room. When I went to the room I immediately pointed to the reception lady that this room is not what I requested for. The lady informed me that they are completely sold and all rooms are occupied and this is the only room left. She tell me that they have upgraded my room and I refused to stay in that room. She said she can't do any thing as this is the only one left. It was the bottom most room and please refer to the 2 photos I have enclosed where in you will be able to understand the views. After 2-3 hrs of my checking new multiple guests checked in, in-front of me and they were given rooms for which I requested for. I immediately questioned the reception lady and she kept silent. I pointed this to the Man in charge in the reception but he only smiled. I feel and I am sure tat because I am an Indian and not white skin, this was done with me. Rest things and the other staffs were good.

NetherlandsFar more amateuristic than our previous stay 7 years back. No working WiFi in the rooms at 3rd floor forced us to use the phones on the corridor and the laptop in the restaurant, and that is not holidaying but suffering. Another major issue is the stairs from 1st to 2nd floor - due to the typical old building setup, one of the stairs is 3-4 cm higher than the rest making me to fall twice and hurt my knee. A clear warning notice on the wall is the least they can do. Breakfast and dinner good in setup but lousy in execution; dishes brought in 5-10 mins later than for the rest of the party, half cold, in wrong sequence etc. No amount of good hospitality, and they do their utmost swarming you with offers to help, can compensate this. Send good maintenance staff for e.g. the WiFi design and re-train restaurant staff!
Rooms good and spacious, nice shower, and on request a free heater.

United Kingdomother than the manager all the staff could talk English but could not understand it. it seems they have got used to eastern European and Indian accents that when they hear proper English spoken by english they cannot understand a big problem. i do not have a heavy regional accent. we had two major problems one we were not given the room we booked when i confronted the staff at reception they just run away and hide it was not sorted until i forcefully confronted the manager. security, another guest by mistake walked into our room whilst my wife was in bed. on informing reception it was just denial that it could happen, IT DID. APPALING. and they will do nothing about it. our fish on the evening meal was undercooked and inedible. the service at breakfast was so slow we had to leave half our breakfast as the train wouldn't wait, we allowed an hour for breakfast and were first in but obviously not enough
great for one night stopover the hotel was beautiful and well maintained
