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 no sink situation wasn't ideal but we managed it, a couple of the devices to open the windows are really squeaky. If you don't like steps then this won't be good for you especially as a top floor apartment but again it didn't really affect us.
Location was perfect right in the middle of the main area. Also a 2 mins walk from the river. Good views of the city especially with the small patio area outside. Plenty of space in the apartment.

Location was good in that you are in the city center. The staff let us check-in early, and were helpful and responsive - good communication. Spacious.

NetherlandsThe shower is horrible. There is only 2 settings on it for the water. Extremely hot or ice cold. The shower head keeps falling from the wall too! Impossible to shower like that especially with a large group.
Rooms and space were great. Also the location is perfect! Right in the city, with all bars and restaurants around the corner. We traveled as a group of 6 people.

United KingdomNo air condition, could be a problem during the summer.
Booked the room for the football, euro 2024, to see Scotland play and on arrival I discovered that the hotel was a 60 second walk from the fan zone 😀 The room was expensive, but I put that down to supply and demand for the football being on. Bonus point was that room 4 overlooked the Rhine

UkraineI had a very good room on the river side with look to Rhine. Nicely furniture and convenient. The hotel is relatively close to historical centrum, but, as it is just a several hundred meters from restaurants, it was not noisy there. If you have time - visit Brüh castle. There are S-Bahn station in 5 minutes from the hotel and with one change you can reach the castle in circa 40 minutes and enjoy its rooms and park. P.S. No breakfast in the hotel, but a lot of restaurants nearby. And WIFI in my room was good, I had no problem with it.

IcelandLights in bathroom and so called "kitchen" did not work. The "kitchen" is ancient and tiny with extremely poor facilities. No table or chairs. The toilet had no lid. The shower was cold. There was no soap or shampoo in the shower. The sofa had large stains on it. WiFi was slow and unreliable. The stairway was smelly. The "landlord" sent us a message through booking.com after confirmation of our stay, basically saying the description on booking was unreliable and denying any responsibility for that. I would say that is a large red flag. In my opinion the "dwelling" is absolutely substandard and should not be listed on booking.
The location is great, if you don't mind the outside noise. Also the large bed in the living room was rather comfortable. Those are the only positive things.

United StatesThe location for this penthouse apartment was on a very loud and noisy street. Don't expect to sleep before 4:00am on a Saturday night. There were several flights of stairs to climb which is difficult with luggage. The key just spun around in the lock and door was very difficult to open. No one in reception to help.
The good stuff..., the apartment had a nice layout.

United KingdomThe property was in clear need of renovation and updating. The shower was extremely difficult to ‘pull’ on, the mice could be heard clawing at night and the heating did not work. The staff were friendly and helpful when around but they were not on reception 24hrs and there was no housekeeping for the duration of our stay.
The location was ideal for the time of year as we were there for the Christmas markets and they were literally across the road.

United KingdomNo problems at all
The hotel is a very old building facing the river in the old town area of Cologne. Close to station (15mins) and other public transport. Its an old building however with no lifts but you are aware of this at the time of booking and was no problem for me. The bathroom was modern, good hot water with excellent water pressure - even for the top floor. For me, the price was perfect - I didnt need a £200 room in another location.
