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.).

HungaryDue to the renovation we sometimes heard drilling, but it wasn't terrible. We struggled a little bit with the shower head adjustment but finally we solved how to use it.
We had a beautiful, clean room with big and comfortable double bed and a terrace. The air conditioning was priceless. When we arrived, Santiago was sitting at the reception, he was super nice. Thank you Santiago! We enjoyed every minute that we spent at the hotel.

United KingdomWas downgraded at last minute from Apartment to normal room, but was given free breakfast and an adjusted rate for the trouble. There were works going on which started fairly early in the morning and the hotel looked a bit untidy because of it but not a big problem.
Huge room, very clean and comfortable. Effective aircon. Location great for boat tours and only a 15 min bus ride into Valletta. Staff very pleasant and helpful. 10% discount at the excellent Grana restaurant which is <3 mins away.

United KingdomRoom had a few faults. Broken patio door handle and loose tiles. However, staff fixed the problems immediately.
Stylish rooms, great facilities and helpful staff. Excellent value for money considering the free entry to aqualuna and use of the wellness centre at 115 The Strand hotel. Rooftop pool and patio area was always empty meaning I had it to myself the entire time. The location is perfect, close to the harbour front but set back down a side road so not actually on the busy front street. 10 min walk to the Sliema-Valletta ferry. Plenty of shops, bars and restaurants within walking distance.

ItalyThe spa was very small and not well-equipped and was located in another hotel across the street.
We had a wonderful time staying at Strand Suites by NEU Collective located between Gzira and Sliema. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the location was perfect for exploring the beautiful island.

UkraineThere was no reaction to the non-working safe
Very nice hotel near the promenade and bus stops (2 min walk) in the direction of Valletta and St. Juliana. Slima - 5 minutes walk. Many cafes/restaurants, shops that work late. The room has a comfortable wide bed, clean bedding, an electric kettle with a set of tea, coffee, cream, refrigerator, TV (did not look). A nice bonus was a daily half-liter bottle of water. A very comfortable bathroom with a large shower, a set of cosmetics (without a cap, toothbrush and cotton pads) and a separate toilet. There is also a hair dryer, iron and ironing board. The balcony is large with a table and chairs. Very nice staff who were interested in the day, helped call a taxi, left things before the settlement and after eviction.

United KingdomThe room did have a funny sort of sewage smell coming from the bathroom, it wasn't pleasant, but if you kept the bathroom door shut you couldn't smell it so much in the bedroom. There are building works going on outside which will wake you up at 8am, obviously there's not a lot the hotel can do about that, just good to know.
The room was amazing, one of the nicest hotels I have stayed in, in a long time. Very modern, clean (it was cleaned every day) and bright. Having a balcony was lovely, a great little sun trap. Location was perfect to get around, only a 10 minute walk to the ferry port to Valetta, there were Bolt taxis practically on the doorstep so didn't have to wait for a taxi. There was always someone at reception, friendly and available to help with any query i.e. luggage storage, access tickets for the Aqua Luna swimming facility.
