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 KingdomPhysical location of hotel is in a very seedy street, sometimes quite noisy and frequented by unpleasant characters. But hotel itself is well maintained. Was disappointed at lack of bar.
Excellent breakfast for size of hotel. Reception manned 24/7, staff very helpful. Good for access to old town, once you get past the initial low-end surroundings. Secret garden and small pool are bonuses.

CanadaQuirky hotel with unique decor. Room was small but comfortable with everything I needed for a night. There was no soundproofing to the neighbouring rooms but my neighbours were quiet and I had earplugs for emergencies. Breakfast buffet is great and varied with fresh food.

LatviaDespite the option chosen to pay upon the arrival, the money was taken before than, in two installments. Taking into account the many cyber-attacks I almost blocked my credit card, because of not being sure on what is going on. It would be much better to state concrete dates on when the money will be taken from the card. The room was quite dark, there were no classical windows, but very thick coloured glasses.
Clean, big room, kind staff, good breakfast. Good swimming pool area.

Buffet breakfast is served at the hotel (16€) worth it. Quirky hotel rooms and plenty of space too. Shower great power. Staff at reception very courteous and friendly. 16 min walk to brussels central station for train to airport. Plenty of areas around hotel to chat and relax with small outdoor garden sunbeds n small pool

Czech RepublicExcept for one lady at the reception, the staff was rather unmotivated, not friendly, at least that was my experience. One guy was straight out snappy. I was charged for breakfast though I did not have one, was promptly refunded though. I wish I had been given the choice of a room with a window and a view rather than a room looking out into a wall (Blanche).
The bathtub is a treat, so is the swimming pool int the yard.

United KingdomThe exact street where the hotel wasn't great. The room itself wasn't like what I saw on Booking, but maybe that was my mistake. The room wasn't small, but felt small, but the toilet was weirdly small, to a point where it was uncomfortable to seat. The bed was a bit too low for my taste, but not a huge problem.
The staff was always very nice and kind with us and the breakfast was also quite good, very good value for money. There's a good connection to the subway system. The bathtub was nice.

The hotel met my expectations and was in a good location, which was a short walk from the centre of Brussels. I didn't use public transport but it did seem as though there were good connections around the area and a train station a few minutes away. I pretty much just used my room on this trip (not the pool sadly) but the facilities were good and the staff amazingly helpful.

Czech RepublicNo negative experience at all.
Old hotel in a small side street in a richer part of the Brussels. Definitely a place with a character that has been around for a long time, where they treat guests with dignity, unlike "sterile" chain hotels. Nicely decorated. Each room has a name. Cozy, comfortable, high ceilings, perfectly clean, well maintained. Friendly and helpful staff.

United KingdomThe near location next to the metro and right next to shops is perfect, only 20mn from the square, but the small side street location of the hotel itself doesn't feel super safe at night for a woman on her own, especially if coming back from a meeting with a suit... Since it's quite a small street of a main shopping avenue, it's easy to just wait and check that noone dodgy is around when going, but I would not like to do this after midnight.
The hotel's best features aside location are the large relaxing lobby, great for meetings, and very friendly/professional staff. The room was small but comfortable, very quiet. the pool looked nice and seemed warm, didn't get a chance to try it. I loved the super hot old style shower and querky deco.
