Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

IrelandThere were no sponges or dishwashing liquid to wash the dishes properly.
The hotel was able to accommodate us with a late check-in. The small kitchenette is very convenient to prepare food - for us we arrived late and grabbed a few items from the grocer nearby to prepare at home before we went to bed. We also used the kitchenette to prepare breakfast. The location is great. We really enjoyed our stay.

GermanyThe hotel could have been better signposted. We had trouble finding it. It looks like a normal residential building.
The receptionist was very nice, helpful and laid back. The room was clean, well equipped and had a good size. The hotel is located in a quiet side street. There are some small restaurants nearby. Hyde Park, Paddington Station and Lancaster Gate are within walking distance. It‘s convenient to travel from/to Heathrow Airport.

GermanyHaving a separate hand towels in the room would have been great - as we had to use our bath towel for other purposes - which we were not used to it before.
Nice location, easy access to public transport! It was really clean, and we had a comfortable stay.

United KingdomOnly 2 towels for 2ppl staying 3 nights and no towel rack, when was to have second shower the towel was still wet. Expected them to be replaced since clearly staff had entered the room. Small room, kept banging foot on the edge of the bed, no possibility of dimming the lights. Woke up with the guests of room next to us opening and closing the drawers. Not very soundproof.
Clean and smelt nice, shower cabin was of good size and water gets warm almost instantly, had all facilities to even cook there and conveniently located. Staff was friendly.

United KingdomThe pillows were lumpy. I couldn’t pull the duvet up far enough. The window did not stay up so had to wedge it open. There was no side light just a strong main light in the bedroom. I didn’t use the coffee machine as there were not enough milks.
It was well laid out. Exceptionally clean ( very rare). In a very quiet location. No noise at night outside or in the hotel. ( also very rare). The bathroom had good lighting. Great location .

AustriaOnly point of criticism is that it can get a bit noisy as you hear every step from people in the room above and next door, but this was a minor inconvenience.
Great location, pretty room with kitchenette, bathroom with walk-in shower, bed very comfy (hard mattress), hair dryer, iron, safe, doors that lock really well, bus stop & underground station close-by.

IrelandThe only negative thing about my stay was the sofa bed. It was awful. My back was sore for the day.
Great location, just 10 minutes walk from Paddington underground. Clean room. Everything you need is provided- delph, cutlery, cooking utensils, kettle. Staff wash the delph. Easy check in, friendly staff. Nice location, felt safe.

United KingdomWould have liked a mat in the shower as quite slippery and to have been given a bath mat. We asked and did get an extra towel to stand on. Room was smaller than we thought that it would be. As stated on another review beware of the shop at the end of the road - the one on the right of the two - we were massively overcharged.
Ideal location. Near to Kensington Gardens and a short walk to Paddington Station. Having a fridge was very useful. Area was quiet. Room was very clean.

United KingdomNothing we didn't like, but just some observations. Sound proofing not so great, and room was very small, but that should not be an issue unless you are intending on staying indoors all day. Beware of the shop at the end of the road - the one on the right of the two - they will massively overcharge you and steal your money.
Location was great, in a quiet street, but very close to Hyde Park and the nearest Tube station just a ten minute walk. Room was small but impeccably clean and modern, and was a perfect two-night stay for our day trips and museum visits. Staff were discreet and helpful and the cleaning team were super friendly. Since other places in London are so expensive, for what you get this place is an excellent choice. Would stay again.
