How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Never brought up extra pillows. Also for the price there's should be more beverages and snacks for free in the room.
Looks amazing, staff are pleasant. The check in was simple and the complimentary drinks we hear!

I believed having booked 6 months ago that the rate was much lower than I was charged. I wish too that there was a shuttle bus.
The rooms are big, comfy and modern. The only hotel out of 4 I have stayed at in Omaha of this quality. I wish I could have stayed longer. Unfortunately the price tag meant I had to move for the rest of my trip

Nothing. We thought it was perfect.
It started with the valet: nice, friendly, quick to help. Then the front desk staff made us feel like we were old friends. The property itself is top notch with a smart, modern but comfortable feel. The rooms were quiet, clean, and well appointed. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom spacious (we had a corner suite). There were USB ports everywhere. You also can’t beat the location: Old Market one way, CHI Center, Schwab Field and the Holland Center the other way. It’s all walkable. It’s also right across the street from the newly redesigned and fabulous Gene Leahy Mall.

Prices in the restaurant and lounge could be more competitive with off-site options. They would probably make more money through higher traffic.
The people that work there truly wanted to make sure you have everything you need. The went over the top to make sure we were as comfortable as possible and were very helpful with recommendations for restaurants and entertainment. We would come back to Omaha just to stay here.

The only thing I didn't like was the pillow, but I'm partial to memory foam so I don't get headaches. Not the hotel's fault.
The hotel is beautiful and smells great (funny I know, but wait until you walk into the lobby!). Staff super friendly. Our valet guy, Derek, really stood out for us - he was fantastic! Very enthusiastic to help and gave us a great recommendation for eating dinner in the city. The room was gorgeous and clean. Shower amazing. Bed super comfy. Highly recommend!

Having a shuttle for transportation to and from the hotel
Stunning hotel. Beautiful and spacious room. Unbelievable shower and bed. Loved the ambiance and decor. Beds were very comfortable and soft sheets. Spectacular view from our room. Catalyst bar was the prefect place for a before dinner drink. It has a wonderful vibe and atmosphere. The Dynamite restaurant had delicious food, attentive service, and decor was amazing We will definitely be back!

This is definitely the place to book for your special occasion! Beautiful, clean, upscale hotel with staff that go above and beyond to ensure you'll enjoy your stay. Also it's just steps from Old Market and minutes from the zoo. Everything was easy and convenient. Valet parking was great.
