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.).

Canadaonly thing that could have been better was if the elevator worked. baggage was however scooped up and carried up and down from my room.
The people who work here are special. I felt at home, which is what I was told as I was greeted. Breakfast was very good. Location was excellent. when a taxi was not forthcoming to take me where I needed to go, My luggage was carried and I was walked to the tram, then to the hotel. As a solo older woman, I really appreciated my “bodyguard”

UkraineThis is a beautiful historical building, more than 150 years old, made with marble and wood, full of antique stuff inside, so basically it’s a museum. There was a beautiful onyx bathroom and the historical paintings of the street the hotel is located on. The location is the most perfect in Sultan Ahmet district you can imagine! The Aya Sophia and the Sultan Ahmet park is just in front of the hotel. Also it’s a very quiet place to sleep at night!

RomaniaThe location is really good, close to Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosk and the Palace. We managed to visit all three of them in one day and also do a cruise along the Bosphorus that had the starting point a chiosque right in from of Hagia Sophia. The staf is really friendly and the breakfast is taken on the roof that has a really nice view of Hagia Sophia and the sea. If you come by car, they will offer you free parking in front of the hotel.

United Arab EmiratesI landed around midnight and there was No Free Welcome Water. I needed warm water to take some meds and the Electric Kettle was missing. A Qibla Marking on the roof can help with prayers direction.
Overall a great experience however there is a scope for improvement. The Staff is very friendly and I will stay again at this location only because of these wonderful people who are employed here. Rooftop Breakfast prepared with love by RAMADAN will be missed.

United KingdomNo tea making faculties in the room. Would have loved a bath - however these were our only two beefs.
Bit of an Agatha Christie 1930s feel about it all which we adored. The view of Palace Sofia was a bonus. It was well placed to walk to everywhere. the room was clean and comfortable. Great shower but would have liked a separate faucet shower to complement the overhead drench.

CanadaInternet, tv set,the huge noise from the street,impossible to sleep with open windows,the poor breakfast menu,the bathroom barn style sliding door(no intimacy of the bathroom, there is a gap between the wall and the door, no big difference if opened or closed!!!), the tv system did not work - the remote control missing batteries cover. I asked for another one- didn't happen. There was no toilet brush! I have stayed before at this hotel.This time I asked for a room with a normal bathroom door, but I did not get it! The internet worked a few hours a day. I had to reset the router myself on the hallway, no luck. I had to work and send files over internet- no luck.
Location,the gentleman that prepairs and serves breakfast, the terrace,we had a parking spot, the personnel was kind but not very efficient.
