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.).

BrazilJust be aware that the closest train/subway station is around 25 min walking, but we only needed public transportation to go to airport, so no big deal for us :)
The location is great, near to the most important sites of Istambul. You can get to them by minutes walking. The room is confy and clean, even though a bit small. The staff is super nice, they gave us tips and also let us leave the bags after check out to enjoy more the city. Totally recommended :)

HungaryWould have been nice to have a warmer blanket in the room, there was only a small bedsheet to use as a blanket, and sometimes it was a bit cold. Also they could have refilled the toilet paper and shower gel more often because we ran out of those multiple times, there was not much of it. Maybe that’s my fault but when booking the rooms I chose this particular room because there was a terrace listed, but just to make it clear, there’s no terrace or balcony, only a shared one upstairs. But at least that one is really nice, like I said.
Great location, close to the main touristic sights. The roof terrace is really cool, nice place to have breakfast and there’s free coffee and tea. The staff is super nice and helpful.

PeruAll it was okay
The hotel service exceeded my expectations, especially because I arrived in the early morning (after missing a flight) well outside reception hours and the manager received me and recognized me from the airport. I am convinced that the service makes the difference between one. and another place and this place did it. The hotel is Very well located, close to the main attractions, close to the tram and bus parking lots, the place is very safe. The rooms are as shown in the photos, everything clean and working. I was able to sleep well, there was no noise from the street. The staff is always willing to help.

Perueverything was wonderful!
Based on my first experience, I booked again for the second time and it was really a right decision! The hotel is very well located in the center of everything and above all very easy to get there with public transport or taxi. The staff is super attentive, I had problems with the airline and they helped me communicate with my airline even to see my flight 🫣, I really appreciate it since I don't speak Turkish!!!

SerbiaNothing negative to say, only the rooms were a bit small, which shouldn’t be the problem at all for people who tend to explore the city during the day.
The location is great, 5 minutes walk from sultanahmet square (hagia sophia, blue mosque and topikapi palace) and just 15 minutes walk from capali (spice and grand bazar). The room was super clean, they changed our sheets and brought new towels daily. Host is amazing and super-kind, he recommended us what to visit and where to eat and every advice was worth listening to. We would definitely come back. Great expirience.
