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.).

AustraliaThe daily chargers to my Credit Card for incidentals .I certainly understand the need to take my Credit Card details to cover any potential incidentals but I have never come across daily charges being applied that don't have any real relationship the the actual charges I had,I made an enquiry to the reception counter on day 2 to find out how they work and the response was a blunt-it is just to cover incidentals -I knew that and I am a well travelled person. My very big complaint is that upon checking out I paid balance of my Bill on a different Card and asked for the pending charges to be cleared which I was told would happen .This has not happened after 2 days.Not good enough.
Vey warm and efficient greeting upon arrival by the check in person.

United KingdomThe room definitely needed more storage facilities. The fixed suitcases under units whilst artistic wasted valuable potential storage.
The Reception at the hotel was very good ,The Concierge services were very friendly and helpful. The Breakfast was very good and set in a magnificent dining room. The location close to the Modern Art Museum was very good for our limited time. The recommended Hop on Hop off bus tour was excellent.

United StatesHow hard it was to pull in and find parking. Granted this is not the Hotels fault. The streets are all one ways so be mindful of surroundings.
I love the ambiance you get from the beautifully old building. You feel like you've walked into a time capsule of the 50s.

AustraliaStaff were a bit unorganised and couldn’t work out the booking arrangements we had made. Ended up ok and was a bit all over the place to start with. There were not enough staff at the front desk. We always had to wait for at least 15 minutes to be served. With a line and only 2 staff taking customers checking in or out.
Rooms were comfy and clean

United StatesThe per fee was stiff @$150. The morning buffet was underwhelming on quality of food. It was cold and dry on many of the hot dishes. The price of $44 per person was outrageous, it should have been $19 for the quality of food. I expected better for the level of quality expected for staying here at the Palace. It left a bad taste leaving what was an enjoyable stay.
Very friendly staff and clean facility.

The staff are exceptional, so warm they feel like family. The breakfast was delicious. It's an old hotel (by US standards!) and very American in feel and style so the decor tends towards "worn corporate", but it's comfortable and of course the architecture is spectacular, the location perfect.
