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.).

Situated very close to main station (Koeln Hbf) and the cathedral. Comfortable bed. Keybox entry details provided - which we needed because we were an hour later arriving than planned due to a delayed train (reception closes at 18:00) Tea and coffee making facilities. moderate sized room, pleasantly decorated with african (saharan artefacts)

AustraliaIt was very noisy due to the street outside being busy all night. We should have guessed when there were earplugs provided in the room. We would have liked access to a fridge but we are finding that rare in Europe economy hotels.
It was conveniently located to the tourist sites I wanted to visit like the Cologne Cathedral. The bed was comfortable and the room warm. There were windows for fresh air. Close by were several eateries and basic food shops. The decor was cute with a desert theme.

Spain- My bathroom was too tiny - Not enough towels, and very small ones - No lift
- Friendly staff - Very comfortable bed - Noise-blocking windows. Street noise didn't bother me at all! - Excellent location, just two minutes walking to the Dom - Plenty of services around

United KingdomWe were expecting a fairly basic room but it had been recently refurbished and was tastefully decorated to a good standard with good quality linen and towels. It was spotlessly clean. We just stopped for one night to break the train journey from Copenhagen to London and it was very convenient for the station, cathedral and restaurants.

United StatesI should have checked ahead of time about air conditioning. There was a fan in the room which helped, and the windows opened. This meant we could hear the drivers at the cab stand talking well into the night. In the US the “first floor” is the ground floor. In Europe it’s often one flight of stairs up. Thankfully this hotel had an elevator.
First the staff were amazing! Then the very short distance to the Cathedral, train station, rhine river, restaurants etc. great location!

UruguayPerfect location for visiting Cologne, two blocks from the main train station and the cathedral. The bedroom was comfortable for one person and well laid out. The windows are well insulated, so when you close them you hardly hear any noise from the street, which is not as crowded as some people say in other commentaries. Nicely decorated and with all the essentials. I highly recommend it!

GreeceWe had a really great experience! The stuff of the hotel were really nice and accommodating, they even offered us a map of the city. The room was great and really cozy and very very clean! The hotel was in a superb location, behind the Cologne cathedral and Central station which was great for easy and fast access to the trains and metro.
