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.).

United StatesPerhaps due to the age of the building, we found the sink in the bathroom somewhat clogged. Contacted the front desk for repair but it didn't get addressed throughout our 3-day stay.
Location is great and the primary reason why we chose this hotel. It is within walking distance to the Galata Tower district, Galataport Promenade, as well as the old city (across the Golden Horn). The location also makes it easy to experience the local life -- there is a local supermarket as well as plenty of eateries right next to the hotel. We had a chance to taste the real Turkish breakfast instead of eating European/westernized food inside the hotel. The hotel is an old building with decent remodeling and decoration. Rooms feel spacious and quiet.

United KingdomNothing, it was a superb stay!
The welcome on arrival was just perfect, the front of house team are so helpful and nothing is too much trouble for them, a real asset to the hotel! Bedroom was beautiful if slightly small, however we had a great view of the Bosphorus. The bed was exceptionally comfortable and the room felt very luxurious. Breakfast, again very tasty and plentiful, good produce and lovley staff too. The roof top bar is superb, now the team up here were amazing, funny, friendly and always made an effort. The views are simply stunning so it's well worth booking a table and watching the sunset. The location is great, very central with the old town just across the bridge. I would definitely book again.

United StatesThe electrical system in the room took some getting used to. It was so small and some of the controls were in hard to see locations.
First and foremost, the staff at the front desk was terrific! By the time we left, we felt like they were old friends. They were extremely helpful and attentive, and very professional. That said, each of them had a great (and appropriate) sense of humor, which made us feel very much at home. Hope they get a bonus or raises! Other staff were good as well, with only one or two exceptions. And the room was beautiful and comfortable. We also enjoyed the breakfast buffett and especially the rooftop bar and restaurant.
