How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Cleaning can be improved. The rooms are in several buildings and if several rooms are reserved there is a chance that they will not be in the same building.
Located 300 m from Sultanahmet Mosque. Quiet street, many restaurants and shops in the area, Perfect for a city break.

Breakfasts with limited choice. Important: if you pay at the hotel, the Booking price stands only if paid cash in TLY. They accept cards, but if you pay with the card, they add additional 15 or more precent to the booking.com agreed price.
Very good location, close to Sultanahmet. Nice, helpful staff. Nice, clean rooms. Working aircondition. Balcony with the limited wiew on Bosphorus. Kitchenette included. So the fridge. Shop around the corner. You get all you need :-)

The maintanance of the rooms/bathrooms. The hotel needs some renovations ASAP!! It doesn’t looks like in the pictures (except one room at the 3rd floor which is nice and it looks like it was renovated). We had to ask for a room change because of the bad condition of the bathroom and electricity pannel which was broken and covered with a paper. Not safe at all!
The location is ok, at only few minutes walking distance to Sultanahmet and Hagia Sofia Mosque. There are restaurants and shops and supermarkets nearby. The staff is kind and they are willing to help anytime. The breakfast location is nice, on their rooftop terrace.

The room we had (just above the entrance, looking in the street) prevented us to rest well the night of arrival due loudly conversations and music in the neighboring restaurants until late 2-3 AM. Friday night may have been an explanation? No particular complains for the coming nights! Maybe tired after long daily walks?🙂
Very friendly and helpful receptionist the evening we arrived (2.09.2022). He found an excelent parking place in the street, not far from hotel's entry. Not much interfere with the staff during our stay (we were leaving hotel early morning and returned evening late but nothing to complain. Security system with cameras surveillance installed to discourage thieves. Exceptional location, few steps only to the historic city centre.

We stayed there just for one night, but everything was well settled. We were helped also with ordering taxis.
