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 StatesIt was a surprise for our anniversary to my wife but the room was canceled before we arrived unbeknownst to me and we had to stay elsewhere our first night. The inconvenience of having to locate another room at 11 p.m. was a bad start to a great weekend.
I was pleased with the accommodations as well as the amenities despite not getting to use them all. I also like the fact that after a rocky start to our stay the hotel staff was able to rebound and go above and beyond to help make our stay memorable.

I like that it offers a different experience as a boutique hotel.

South AfricaNo laundry service. I queried with the staff who had no idea, the receptionist was new and asked the person from the restaurant who said they would find out. No-one got back to me, so when I got back that evening, I went to follow up and new people were there who also didn't know the answer. Very noisy airconditioner

United StatesI booked through Hotel Ella's website which directs you to Booking.com. Per my booking.com reservation, I received an email with the quoted prices including pricing of $25 per night for valet parking. It noted the total price did not include 17% tax or a resort fee of 6%. When I got my receipt via email long after we had left the hotel, I noticed I was overcharged for both parking and resort fees. It took 3 phone call and 2 emails to finally get someone to refund the overcharge and I only noticed the credit on my credit card account as no one from the hotel ever responded via email or phone. They also didn't refund the entire overcharge, and offered no explanation or apology.
We stayed here when my daughter was at UT Orientation. It is a great location walking distance from campus with very nice decor, comfy bed and clean room. We enjoyed the historic aspect of the main hotel and had tasty drinks and appetizers in the bar one night. I swam in the pool one afternoon and there was bar service available poolside if you like. The pool is tiny but nice to cool off in and has nice fountains and in Austin it is so hot so it was a welcome amenity.

United StatesThe room we stayed in had large square footage, which was used weirdly inefficiently - a tiny bathroom with a huge empty anteroom, for example. A table and a couple of chairs would also fit nicely in this room but there was no table.
Great location, the building is historic and very interesting, the rooms are large. The beds and comforters were very good. The staff was very pleasant and helpful every time I spoke to them.
