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 StatesFarther from waterfront than I would have preferred. Bathroom was ridiculously small, especially compared to size of entire room. No room to move at all. Side step to the right for shower, left for toilet and that was it.
Breakfast was great. Room was cleaned well. Service was great.

FranceThe hotel was perfectly located between the waterfront (15mins by foot) and the city center (10 mins walk). Everything else is easy reach by a 10 min Uber or taxi drive. The breakfast was great, plentiful and the coffee and food were really tasty! we could also have an early breakfast at 6:30 AM before a day trip which was handy. We could also have a late breakfast after a sunrise hiking trek which was perfect! The pool is also nice for a dip after a long day. For business travelers, it is right next to the convention center. I would definitly recommend

United StatesThe room was spacious, comfortable, clean, and had great temperature control. I thought having a kitchenette was really nice. I was pretty jetlagged so I was never hungry at mealtimes but very hungry in the middle of the night so it was convenient to be able to make myself a snack whenever I wanted to. The bed was big and comfortable, the staff was very friendly and helpful, and the hotel was very close to the convention center. Really could not have asked for a better place to stay during this conference.

United KingdomBreakfast was slow going probably because it was busy at the time. A couple of the male staff not quick enough example black coffee taking half an hour please. If you like a hearty breakfast all you can eat similar to Spanish hotels. This is not for you. Middle of the Central business district trendy sunglasses eating leaves and sniffing green juices.
The property is in a good location away from the madness. If you want some kind of deviance this isn’t for you. Ideal for clean business and families. Large rooms decent staff especially Patterson and Smiles. Thank you. 24 hr security, concierge and carpark. Close to all attractions motorways and walking distance to the Waterfront.

MauritiusWhat could be improved is the design of the bathroom door. It was a bit heavy to open and close the sliding door. The bathroom is a bit small. There could be more electric sockets near the bed. Otherwise the hotel is just amazing.
Central location. The CTICC bus stops for the hop on hop off sightseeing bus (red route and blue route) are just behind the hotel and a few minutes walk. The staff are amazing and provide great customer service by going out of the way to help out. Had a cancelled flight which meant that had to stay one additional night. Bronwyn, Randall and André were extremely helpful. The studio apartment room which you get is fitted with all that you can dream and think of using. The kitchen with cooking facilities (hot plates, toaster, oven, microwave and all cooking utensils, cutlery, plates and cups) is just amazing. The room design has been very well thought of. The breakfast at the MRKT restaurant was great. A lot of choices at the buffet and also à la carte. Staff can customise the menu depending on food restrictions. The Yu restaurant is just amazing.
