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.).

SwitzerlandStaircase could need more light (falling hazard). Only very dim reading light and bathroom light in the room. Be aware that the bathroom is only separated by a glass wall with shutters and there are gaps. Might be an issue for not so close friends or people who want bathroom privacy. Prices for breakfast are in the upper range but acceptable regarding the professionalism of the staff.
Extremely well trained, helpful, very professional and polite staff. Nicely designed interior. Best rooftop terrace for sunset drinks.

QatarTo be honest, as a Muslim, I couldn't eat in the place, so it was a bit bad for me, but what I learned is that the hotel is very French in feel, so halal food is not available and this was not the case. A problem for me because there are many restaurants on site, so staying at this hotel was much better than this very small problem.
The manager of the place was very nice to me, her name is Floy, and Yassin was very nice, friendly, helpful and very respectful. It's not my first time, but it certainly won't be my last ❤️

United StatesThe rooftop restaurant is of wonderful French cuisine. I just wish they had a varied menu - we stayed for 9 nights, and we just had no variety to choose from since the menu never changes. But at least there are so many restaurants only a block or two away.
The location is amazing. Right off the Galata tower in a quiet street. this is a small boutique hotel, it has a beautiful terrace restaurant overlooking the entire bay. The rooms have a spacious terrace overlooking a garden. the metro stations are some six blocks away - but be aware you will have steep walks to either metro station, so be prepared to do some strenuous walking.

United KingdomNot much TBH. The cloths hanging arrangement is a bit odd… a rail over the tea and coffee making table… and we made the error of thinking that the tea and coffee in the room were complimentary only to be handed a bill when we were leaving… we must have misunderstood, but I thought it a bit mean
Lovely property in an excellent location. Wonderful staff, especially Yasin who helped with restaurant recommendations and was very supportive, though fair to say all the staff were lovely. Bed extremely comfortable, we had a quiet room with a balcony overlooking the garden which was very nice. Fixtures and furnishings very tasteful and a very powerful shower.

United KingdomNeighbourhood nice but there was loud music every night from an outdoor bar (a long way from the hotel but still extremely loud) which spoilt the use of the otherwise lovely balcony
Great location, near lots of great restaurants and 45 minutes walk from the Palace and Mosques.

New ZealandDespite outstanding views and the premium to see the Bosphorus which is above the 3rd floor of hotel, we didn't think it was value for money compared with other boutique hotels we have stayed at in major European cities.
Outstanding views over the Bosphorus. Just off the main street at Galata so quiet. A location where it would work better if you enjoy walking and are happy to walk up and down hills as Galata the highest part of Istanbul
