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.).

Great location, amazing staff, quiet, charming rooms very well equipped and comfortable. The rooftop has the best views over the city. Breakfast is really nice and fresh and really nice in the courtyard under the orange tree. An oasis.

SwitzerlandNot a deal breaker, and we would stay here again, but I wish we had known that our room was 'folded' inside the hotel and had no outside windows. We did have windows - one onto a stairwell and one onto a corridor with a bench where people could (and did!) sit. All rather strange and although a charming room (a suite I think) do perhaps ask about this. It would have been good to have been fore-warned as I would have chosen a different room.
From entering the gates into a magical and almost secret little courtyard, Balcon de Cordoba was everything we had hoped for. Absolutely charming and the location is unbeatable - 30 seconds from the mesquita which meant at night and early morning we could enjoy the historic centre without the crowds. The orange tree in the courtyard was just coming into bloom and although we did not eat at the hotel, the food did look lovely. Charming staff on the front desk and the hotel was immaculately clean. Had a lovely hour up on the roof terrace which is small but has stunning views.

United StatesIt was difficult to manage the steps leading into the hotel from outside. Just 3 and then 3 more, but by the time we had walked all over, we were tired. However, the staff carried the luggage for us.
The location was wonderful. So close to restaurants and scenic areas. Right by the Mezquita. The hustle and bustle of the city was nearby but by the time you went down the alley to the hotel it was peaceful and quiet. The staff was lovely and the gardens and terraces within the grounds were stunning.

Balcón de cordoba was a truly wonderful hotel. From the moment you stepped through the wrought iron gates into the beautiful courtyard you relaxed. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the room was wonderful. To cap it all off the upstairs Balcón/terrace was the ultimate place to watch the sunset over the rooftops of Cordoba. We will be back!!

United KingdomThe staff were very kind and helpful but one of the restaurants they suggested us to go for dinner, was really disappointing both from service and quality of food - i guess could be personal taste
Location is superb, just a few metres from the Cathedral; property is very cute - representing a typical Spanish old home, but all refurbished and modernised, lovely inner courtyard and little terrace

United KingdomIt rained whilst we were there so we could have done with another comfy chair in the bedroom so we could both relax without one of us having to sit on the bed (although not sure it would have fitted!). There are communal spaces to sit but they're either on in the restaurant, in the courtyard or terrace (both open to elements) or in the foyer opposite the reception.
Decor is beautiful. Feel like you're in a very special place. Welcome was warm with complimentary drink and they took our bags to the room which was a nice touch. Breakfast was delicious. Lots of choice. Loved the poached eggs and tomatoes. Terrace is real treat with great views across to the cathedral. Despite booking a standard we were pleasantly surprised by the size of the room and bathroom. Toiletries were lovely nice touch with fruit and carnation on arrival. Unbelievably central which was great for all the attractions. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
