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.).

Lovely hotel - very friendly and helpful staff. We were leaving early for a flight so they even prepared sandwiches for us with us missing breakfast. Great location, very accessible to everything. Quiet rooms, we couldn’t hear the call to prayer even though the mosques were really close by.

PolandRoom window faced another window. The balcony was not cleaned.
Cozy hotel in the heart of Istanbul. Only 1 minute away from the tram station, thus, it is easy to get to any part of the city from the property. Nevertheless, it is quite quiet in the night in the area even though it is a historical center. The room is small, though, comfortable. Every day cleaning did a good job. The breakfast was nice, the view of the breakfast terrace never disappointed. Below the property there is a restaurant that provides 20% discount for the hotel guests. The staff is friendly, you always feel welcomed. We ordered a transfer from IST airport to the property and everything was very well communicated and performed.

AustraliaHospitality is FIRST CLASS here. The staff are all so sweet and want you to have a great time. I booked the deluxe room and it was so comfortable. The king size bed was a delight. There is a restaurant right next to the hotel and they are a family business. You can get their meals sent up to your room. Reception only recommended tours that they know and trust and the taxi to and from the hotel made me feel like I was VIP. It's no taxi, it's your own lux van. Very nice stay and special thanks to Dogan at reception. He was honestly the best!!

AustriaThere was nothing that was not absolutely perfect!
Excellent service and comfort!!! Every single person working there has been exceptionally helpful and nice to us from arrival to leave! Sinan, the breakfast Manager was ever so concerned all is well :) And also the people at reception were always giving advice, taking time to talk to us over tea or just a happy chat. They even offered to have our postcards taken to the post office to help us out :) The location of the hotel could not be more central: 2min walk to Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosc and cistern, only 9min to the basar! And the tram stops 1min from the hotel! For a short stay this is the place you want to book!!! :) did I mention the views from the breakfast terrace give you goose bumps? ;)

United KingdomThe bathroom had some bad smell from the canalisations in the morning. It wasn’t ideal, we had to leave the light on to keep the vent ON to reduce the smell.
The hotel was well located. It was easy to walk to different places and access the tram that could lead anywhere. The breakfast was incredible. And the staff really nice and answered all our questions and needs The view from the breakfast room is incredible!!
