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.).

AustraliaNot a single thing!
Kitapevi was the most charming boutique hotel we had ever stayed in Turkey. As soon as we stepped in, we got dragged into the magic of this historical Ottoman house. Mr Harun welcomed us in such a warm way and accommodated my mother’s knee problem in the most generous way of offering a suite on the entrance floor free of charge. A beautiful man indeed. Mr Kılıç gave us a great help with all the luggage and finally Mr Murat made us feel like we were visiting an old friend with a genuine kind heart who we had reunited after a long time. And the breakfast, you need to experience it! Thanks to Ms Mizgin and Mr Furkan :) Kitapevi will be our home in Bursa.

AustraliaThe service at the restaurant was hit and miss. The wait staff seemed either preoccupied with others or not aware to ask if you’d been served or what you may like.
A lovely 200 year old property with antiques and interiors that fit the era. A large room with a comfortable bed. It was in a very convenient location to all the main sites.

United StatesWe didn’t mind all the stairs but if you have trouble with stairs you may not want to stay here. Parking is very difficult but available- need to be a patient parker since parking has a very tight fit. Hotel staff is will and available to park vehicle if you need assistance.
Location, breakfasts and breakfast team! We’re walkers so everything we wanted to experience was within walking distance. The historical value of this property is well preserved. We liked the daily water availability and comfy slippers. And wow, they prepared a To Go breakfast since we had a very early flight out from IST. Thank U!!

United StatesWifi needs a security upgrade, and Internet was completely down for lengthy periods. Digital TV was devoid of signals and not worth fiddling with. Pricey relative to Istanbul comps.
Historic building is set high on a city rampart with great views and easy access to the main sights. Breakfast is beyond complete, and dinner options are a notch above anything in the area, drawing many reservations for rose petal-covered special nights out. Good wine selection, which is almost non-existent in Bursa.

Everything. The location is near to the historical and commercial center of the city and Zafer Plaza Mall,. The architecture is old, but the building is very well maintained. The rooms are large, clean, stylishly furnished and equipped with everything you could need, the interior design it's romantic, the view is fabulous. Rich breakfast. 100 point for the hotel and restaurant staff.

United StatesTheir location is unique and historic, but that also presents a challenge if you are arriving by car and the steep hillside can even be a challenge walking after a full day of sightseeing. If arriving by car, I recommend that you call them in advance and request assistance because the roads getting to the hotel entrance are very narrow and it was virtually impossible for us to simply pull up and request valet assistance. However, when we called and asked for help the hotel staff were most helpful and they met us where we were and took over the car parking from there. It was very helpful and made all the difference in being able to check in with ease. The bathroom was nice and accommodating, but the lighting is a bit dim and could be improved. It also has one of those hairdryers attached to the wall and it is difficult to pull out far enough to use it with ease. The tv did not have any English language channels, and this is more likely to be the case at any hotel in this town.
Our room was spacious and included a balcony with a fantastic view. It provided a nice way to end and begin the day. Little touches like the nice towels, slippers and bathrobe were all nice as was the little “gift” of candies and a mini soap and loofah bag. There was a separate vanity desk from the bathroom, which I always appreciate so that I can get ready while my partner is using the bathroom mirror. The hotel features a lovely courtyard and an enormous Turkish breakfast. The furnishings and wooden floors are quite lovely and add to the overall charm of the building. Overall, this place has lovely staff and a charming atmosphere. We had stayed here before and were happy to have done so again.
