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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 only downside we noticed was the beds were a bit soft for our liking but that is a personal thing.
The location was very good for the Byward Market area of town. The rooms were nice and clean. Breakfast was good. Not a huge selection but fresh and more than adequate. Staff and room service were very friendly and courteous.

United KingdomThe toilet roll was very rough.
Drinks were available in the breakfast area all day. Extras for breakfast such as heated plates, food constantly refilled in small increments so everything was fresh. Everything in the room and kitchenette was thought of and included. Nice to have a safe too. We reserved a parking space which was great - walked each day to locations, as we were so close to all the sites and eating places. Lots of eating places around.

CanadaCentral air conditioning would have been nicer but we were happy to have a nice cool room.
Great location in Ottawa. Easy to walk to restaurants in the Market. Nice quiet location. Comfortable beds. Happy it had air conditioning even if it was the portable kind. The white noise from it made it easy to sleep. Nice big rooms and nicely appointed with glasses and plateware, ironing board etc.

CanadaWe stayed for 3 nights and loved it! Breakfast was very good - lots of choices both hot and cold and the coffee was great. The Inn as a whole is very clean as are the rooms. I loved all the bright colourful paintings throughout the entire hotel. The location is perfect! Parked the car and walked everywhere. Underground parking is a little tight, so if you drive a big SUV or pickup truck, you'll need to find alternate parking. Overall, we will definitely stay here again on our next Ottawa trip.
