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.).

IrelandThe building/ room decor is nice but the window situation in rooms needs attention not only are the not sufficient for a hotel they are dangerous. Metal window frames that don’t work right there is little sealing on the windows. The amount of energy consumed to keep rooms warm must be a disgrace in this climate. We folded the curtains up into window ledge and used towels along the window to try block out the cold during the night as the long curtains were in front of the rad which made the room freezing.
This is my second time staying in this hotel the staff are amazingly lovely. I am sure their jobs can be challenging dealing with difficult situations arising from the building itself but they do their jobs professionally. I like the Art Deco vibe in the hotel.

United KingdomThe hotel messed up our booking, on arrival the booking was the opposite of what we requested. The receptionist tried to correct but at the time could not give us rooms on close together or even on the same floor. |Room door locks are operated by cards which became demagnetized frequently. We had to run run to the reception, queue if busy, to have them recoded 2 t o3 times a day.
Very conveniently located hotel in central Rotterdam, about 15 mins walk from the central train station. Shops, cafes, restaurants, public transport within short walk's reach. The rooms are clean and spacious with equally spacious bathrooms, the beds were very comfortable, but the hotel is old, showing it's age. However, there was a very well equipped gym. Breakfast was fabulous; spoilt for choice. Staff very very friendly and helpful, particularly breakfast room staff.

When we raised our request they hadn’t anything in their system, but luckily they were able and happy to oblige and gave us a perfect room on the 1st floor.

The location of the hotel is good, close to the city center. The rooms are overall fine. The breakfast was complete and worth the value paid.

GermanyIt was so cold in the room despite fully turned on heaters. They were only two and it wasn’t enough for such a big apartment.
Very nice location, close to city center. Big room with 2 comfortable beds, chairs and sofa. Staff were very friendly and helpful despite that it was only one hotel of 6 where they asked IDs of all of us. We were pleasantly surprised by the Halloween decorations and sweets in the hotel lobby

United KingdomCan't think of anything really. Be aware if staying here that the Coolsingel can be busy so if you are on that side of the building and want to let some fresh air in, there will be traffic noise if you open the window
The staff were very friendly and when I arrived early and asked if I could store my luggage until my check in time, I was informed that my room was ready and allowed me to check in early at no extra charge. The room was clean, comfortable and quiet. The staff in the breakfast room were friendly and helpful, and the food was great. The location is perfect for central Rotterdam, especially when arriving by train. It was my second stay at NH Rotterdam. I didn't know quite what to expect because for my previous stay I was given a free room upgrade for an unknown reason, but I was very happy and I will definitely stay again

AustraliaHard to get to the breakfast as there is no direct lift leading to the restaurant. I understand it is an old building with many big stair cases. The housekeeping for room cleaning is at 4pm. We normally back to the room around 3:30pm after a day out. So it is no good that we have to go out and sit at the corridor while the room is being cleaned.
The location is excellent and within walking distance to most attractions. Room is big.

LuxembourgThe hotel is extremely pet friendly (they also give you a toy and a treat for your dog) but the fact that dogs can’t enter the breakfast room is inconvenient. We had to leave her in the room as the other option (to eat outside the room and carry our plates back and forth form the breakfast room) wasn’t ideal.
Great location (right in the city centre) and easy parking right next to the hotel. The reception lady that checked us in was super friendly and helpful(don’t know the name). She also got us a plate and a cup for our little dog as we forgot ours. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom spacious and clean. The view from the 7th floor was also nice
