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.).

OmanRoom was very very basic and many mosquitoes. Many people staying there seem to be local "live in" guests. Not comfortable at breakfast- very crowded in a cramped room. No tourist information or other tourists- even the receptionist, Aurilene, very rudly and aggressively said to us as we tried to check in - I dont speak English. It is a hotel,right? Unbelievable- not a nice way to start a holiday. Receptionist Marcio quickly spoke to us and was friendly.
Beautiful historical building and central location. We got the balcony room- nice to have view of the street.

BelgiumIt's a bit of an old building but comfortable
Very nice hotel. Good breakfast. There could have been a toaster available, but it is nice. Nice staff. Best rooms are 321 and 322, with balcony. Hot water in the shower. Fridge in the room, ac and ceiling fan as well. Coffee available all day in the lobby. The metro entrance is right in front of the building, largo de Machado with restaurants and bars is 100 meters away. I loved it and would come back.

South KoreaValue for money. Close to metro. Has on-premise FOC parking space - but would be great to receive prior instructions on how to enter (going up the pavement, requesting for parking gate to be opened, missing the entrance would result in a huge tour of Rio haha etc) A simple breakfast included was a bonus. A bit dated, but it comes with the price. Location was just the best.

United StatesRoom was in the back. It was not easy to turn on the AC. I had to jump on the bed to be able to reach the power button.
Location is good. Staff watch you eat your breakfast from the kitchen. One lady approached me to let me know the buffet is "all-you-can-eat"; however, coffee should be limited to one cup only... I didn't like to hear that, and I thought it was embarrassing.

United StatesThere is nothing I like about the hotel . I booked for double room and they gave me a triple family room with no room for movement . Their sheet was dirty . Their bathroom is narrow and cranky . On the reception there was a woman with big eye glasses . She was grampy and almost hostile . I would never recommend anyone to stay here . Their breakfast was also basic with no many options .
Location is kind of central .

BrazilMy first dislike was the lack of a decent separation of the shower area and the rest of the bathroom where there was only a plastic curtain to prevent the water from the shower from invading the rest of the bathroom.............and every shower wet the entire bathroom. Breakfast is the second item I did not like. There two juices, one appeared to be orange juice but I am not sure.The other looked like cashew juice made from a concentrate. Here in Brazil people shop for bread rolls daily but those that were available did not seem to be very fresh. The options for breakfast were limited and ,for me, not a breakfast to enjoy but simply to fill one's belly.
The positive point for this hotel is that it is right opposite the Republic Museum where one can safely rest and stroll around during the day. The staff of the hotel were friendly always.

ArgentinaOnly one person spoke English. Breakfast was ok but it was the same every day. There was no decent table either in the room or in the lobby, not recommended if you work from your laptop. I had to call the front reception every time I wanted to turn off the air conditioning. There was no elevator. The worst thing was that the room and breakfast room had ants (or termites) everywhere. I checked my bed dozens of times to avoid being bitten.
Even though they did not speak English, they were patient with me and tried to understand what I needed. Cleanliness was good. The location is great and the subway is 10 meters from the entrance. There are food stores open until late, supermarkets and pharmacies on the sides.

DenmarkI think the room was not cozy or pleasant at all. It had much more a hostel vibe. I think the beautiful name of the hotel and the location had given me the impression, that it was more cozy and pleasant.
I found the breakfast rather simple and not too exciting. But I much appreciated the cleanliness. It seemed very clean and safe to eat. The location of the hotel is the biggest reason to chose it. An excellent location.
