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.).

The court yard view was nice, overall nice experience. A water view would have been better.

United StatesThere are only 4 really slow elevators that practically stop working when a lot of people are trying to use them. It took forever to find the stairs to get to the TWELFTH floor. Because of the building's shape, it's just one long staircase to the top so I was basically climbing a mountain to get to my room. This was only an issue when I arrived and I was able to use the elevators after that, but they could definitely be faster.
Convenient location, friendly staff, clean room and an incredible view of the Charles River. In theory the design of the hotel is very cool but...

Wonderful view of the Charles River, especially rowing on the river, from the 2nd floor restaurant and some hotel rooms. In fact we've booked for Head of the Charles Regatta for October 2024! The walk along the river is terrific!

AustraliaMain drawback is the location - its a bit out of the way if you don't have a car - but I have stayed here many times so it doesn't bother me. lots of places to walk from here. I even walked to and from TD Gardens and Boston Common (each 5 km one way), although T is easy to get at Main/MassAve or over the bridge at BU.
Gautam in the front desk was amazing. I had a problem downloading to my phone concert tickets I had bought on line. He worked with me for half an hour trying to find a way forward. All this in between serving guests - I couldn't ask anything more - he was Outstanding !!!! I also liked the bottles of water. I really liked Trader Joe's not being far away to get things not available at the hotel.

The building even if probably not so new is interesting with four elevators visible from the internal open space. The room was with view at Charles river, beautiful. The parking is very good, large, self parking. A cafeteria în a Starbucks style is available în the hotel which is useful for a coffee or eating fast.
