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 StatesWe were disappointed there was no refrigerator. There was clearly a cabinet for it but nothing there. We always eat great food and have left overs and were unable to keep them cool.
Walkable to Michigan Ave, the River, and the L. The staff always greeted us when we came back.

United StatesWe had one day that one of the housekeepers can into our room saying that they didn’t have us down for anymore days when we were still there for another three but the front desk attendants remedied this for us. Also, as we drove in but parked for the whole week it would’ve been nice to have a discounted extended stay valet service. It would’ve cost us almost 4 times as much to utilize this just to park as what we paid for a parking garage the whole trip less than a block away.
Great staff and for the most part everyone was very helpful and friendly! Great location as it was fairly central for what we wanted to do in our first trip to Chicago.

United StatesParking is available in the structure 1 block over and needed overnight which was $60. My TV in my room had lines going through it but I wasn’t watching it anyways. The jacuzzi tub was really loud when the water was draining. I think slippers could be added to the room. The ability to access the terrace from the hall versus going through the pool was odd.
I had reservations for 2 rooms and 1 room was ready early. The staff was wonderful and helpful. I appreciated that they fulfilled my special request of being on the highest floor, which was the too floor but there’s apartments above the hotel. The bed was comfortable, microwave, safe, iron/iron board, refrigerator, desk, robes, and living area was all nice.

United StatesI have no complaints about the facilities. The only bonus would have been a refrigerator in the room as we had left-overs from dining out an no place to store them.
Great location - near many excellent restaurants and bars. Walking distance to many attractions. Easy access to Red line. Despite crowds, no issues with noise or sleeping.

United KingdomNothing we didn’t particularly dislike, however, the decor was a bit tired.
The location was fantastic. The rooms were large and comfortable. You were given a choice between daily cleaning and a discount in the restaurant. The cleaner went out of their way to put our water on ice, which was much appreciated. They had bikes you could borrow for free. It had a rooftop terrace.

CanadaThe knowledge of the front desk staff. As there is no Concierge, it would benefit the hotel to make sure that the front desk staff be more knowledgeable with surrounding attractions, restaurants and directions. I asked the best way to walk to Navy Pier and the person I spoke at the front desk had no idea because they don't really go there, and weren't sure how to walk there (I found out on my own, it was pretty straight forward). I asked about bus/train directions, and another answer I got was "I drive, I don't take the train".
If you like to walk, I felt the location pretty good, it felt central enough where I could walk to Navy Pier, walk to the Mag Mile, and even to the Riverwalk; all within 10-20 minutes. Beds were pretty comfortable as well.
