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.).

PolandEven though I booked a triple room and was charged for three people, the room was ready only for the two and we had to wait in the lounge until it was made ready. We actually came late in the evening, so the hotel did have enough time to make our room ready before we came. The reception staff wasn't very helpful either. The carpeting both in the corridors leading to the rooms and in our room was so old shabby and stained that it was difficult to decide whether it was clean or dirty. The room and the bathroom were very dark due to very poor lighting. The lighting in the room was so poor that it made reading impossible.
The restaurant and bar staff were very professional nice and helpful. The breakfast was good with a variety of food to choose from in general, but the choice of vegetables was very limited indeed, basically tomatoes and cucumbers, no salads. The restaurant was clean and spacious. The hotel also has a private car park at a very reasonable price.

PortugalWhen we checked in , they gave us a room that was occupied with someone else. It was very uncomfortable to enter into your room and see someone else there. Then we paid for the tourist fees when doing the check-in, and after on checkout they add more fees as it was not correct before. These are errors I didn’t expect for a 4* hotel
Good location surrounded by nature

United StatesThe room to room sound damping is inadequate if there are noisy neighbours. The reception area is really nice, but super noisy, like a loud bar. Can’t have a conversation there. Takes away from the otherwise excellent setting.
We are returning visitors for decades and select Novotel over it’s near competitors: predictable quality of service, friendly helpful staff. Clean room, bathroom. Good room layout. Could use a couple more outlets for chargers ect.

Germany- Check in took quite long, the gentleman responsible was not yet fully trained apparently?* Having to wait that long with 2 tired minors, after over 6 hours travelling isn't great. - The sleeping couch has some nasty gaps and metal rails right at the side - which one could easily get stuck in, whilst getting in or out of bed. I "fixed" it by stuffing a pillow into the gap, so both the metal rails were covered and most of the gap was filled. - The sheet on the sleeping couch must have been there for ages, wrinkled as it was. I suppose there is a decent cover over it, when in use as a couch, but I do not want to think too deeply about people having sat on this couch and passing gas (to put it nicely). I'd like to propose using clean sheets, when it will be used as a bed, instead of leaving the old sheet on. - The hair dryer might need some thorough cleaning - some unpleasant looking grey stuff around the connection - Hotel surroundings (Next to the entrance, bushes around the parking lots) might need some regular cleaning / inspection, apparantly some guests are unable to use a waste bin or ashtray correctly, leaving a bit of an untidy impression. * The night after I saw the same happening again: a rather long queue of people (partially with small kids) waiting to check in.
State and quality of the rooms is well up to par. The hotel as such is near the highway and not too far from the city center (roughly 2km). There is a tiny "shop" right next to the reception, with drinks and snacks, with quite a variety too.

United KingdomInternally, as we approached our room on the second floor, getting out of the lift, you could smell the carpet. It was heavily stained in places, and several trays lay outside people's doors. When we got to our room, a very poor repair had been done....there were about 10 screws around the lock area indicating that entry had been gained forcibly at some point..
Facilities were great with the outside pool and modern gym equipment. Can't fault the breakfast as a massive choice and catering staff were very hard working at busy oeriod.
