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 KingdomThe room was large and clean with ample cupboards for clothes etc. Bed was comfortable and the location was easy access to the city by taxi (say USD15 by Uber to airport or City centre). 10 mins walk to the beach and supermarket. Hire of an E-Bike or Scooter made visit to the beach fun! A small shop across the road.

AustriaLocation is directly opposite of a mosque which means service at 5.30 a.m. Anyways, there are mosques all around - no escape if you want to sleep in.
Spacious room, generous, calm, pool, nice and relaxing garden.

Germanythe bathroom had a crack in the bathtub and stuff was coming out. The ceiling had mold and during the night there was loud music and partying someone with a light sleep could probablynot endure that.
i slept well, the room was very nice. The fact that I had a fridge and an AC was good. Even though the AC was really loud, I turned it down over night. And there were two adorable cats to pet.

SwitzerlandSuperb stay in one of the best areas in Dubai. If you like something different than the normal hotel stays, you should definitely go to DARÏ. It's like coming home. Free parking just in front of the house, cooking possibilities, a pool in the beautiful house garden. The available rooms are all different, with different sizes and comforts. Something for everyone. The area is very calm with walking distance to the Kite Beach and the fish market where you can buy your own seafood and let it be prepared by a nearby restaurant. The people who run DARÏ are are very friendly and helpful.

AzerbaijanNo signs or boards with the name of the hotel, so if receptionist did't send me the exact location by whatsapp, I don't think I would have found it. No formal reception can be seen as a negative and as a positive too! If you want some privacy, no reception could be seen as advantage.
Nice and cozy hotel, felt like you are a guest in somebody's villa with some additional privacy. Free parking and walking distance to Kite beach make it a good value for money. They also have a lovely lobby where, if you are visiting as a group, you can get together and play cards, table games and just chat.

PakistanThis Guesthouse is incredibly charming. It’s a truly special place in Dubai. The staff there were very welcoming and made my stay so pleasant. The room was so neat and spotlessly clean. The area has very easy access to get around Dubai, with a very short walk to Kite beach. Overall I couldn’t found a better stay in Dubai.
