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 social activities were often out of our budget, but we seemed to be in the minority with that as they were always well attended.
The room and facilities were clean. Staff were helpful. The whatsapp group was useful and it was great that staff updated it every day with activities.

AustriaThe only think that could use a repair is the pool table downstairs which was in bad shape.
The staff was fantastic and super helpful with every possible question. The free walking tours, free Spanish lessons, pub craws with Roman and other activities that were provided were a great offer. Also the location in the heart of San Telmo was outstanding and the block was super safe at night. Stayed in a private room and it was incredibly clean and with AC.

The staff was really kind! They helped me with some random issues and made me feel very welcome. They organized many activities (the walking tour was nice) and there are often people hanging out at the couch ready for a chat. It’s easy to socialize here at any time of day (or night). They have an active WhatsApp group for all people in the hostel. Also, the rooms were clean, nice curtains for the beds, big lockers. Good location.

United KingdomParts of the hostel could do with a bit of a refresh, but this is very minor.
The hostel was really sociable- the staff organised multiple events everyday which were easy to take part in. It was also really easy to do your own thing if you didn’t fancy it. People genuinely used the communal areas so you could easily meet other people. They also cleaned rooms everyday and provided towels and toiletries if you book a private room.

United KingdomKitchen equipment was well past its use-by date, definitely needs new pots and pans, as well as something to make our own coffee with (basic plastic coffee filter holder, cafetière or aeropress). Also the rooms were slightly dated and worn in but nothing really to stress about.
The ultimate staff team, and the one stop shop for all Buenos Aires needs. Really want to stress how great the team are and how they made our stay really enjoyable. This felt like a proper hostel with a great hostel spirit. I can see why it has had such past accolades. Their events are also fun and inventive. Also its location in San Telmo is great.

United KingdomNot so much the hostel but the tours included weren’t great. We paid a lot to go to a guided Boca game and there was no guidance so we ended up not able to see the game, a massive waste of money!
Probably one of the best hostels we’ve tried - clean, friendly staff, great facilities.
