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 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.).

IrelandOur twin room more than met our expectations and was big enough for us. We were on the 6th floor and it was nice and quiet. The breakfast was great, lots of choice which set us up for the day. Great location close to the old town and a 10 min walk from the bus station.

SloveniaThe problem of parking - but we knew that in advance. Very small and slow elevators - it can be a problem for those with a lot of luggage. Perhaps the cleaning could be improved a little, especially the floor, but in general we were very satisfied. .
Big comfortable beds, big room, good location. The breakfast is also good and plentiful considering the size of the dining room, freshly prepared juices, good coffee, we only missed a little more fresh vegetables. Very friendly staff at the reception and in the dining room.

SpainParking was a bit tricky as there were no spaces in the closer parking garage, so we had to go to the one around the corner and even with some discount as hotel guests, it was 24 euros for 1.5 days which was more expensive than other Spanish cities we stayed in. There was a loading bay right in front of the hotel though, which was great for loading and unloading suitcases!
It was great to have a family room option as we have 2 young children and not every hotel offers this. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable with good air conditioning. Staff were friendly and helpful. There is a retro games room which our kids absolutely loved. The hotel is not right in the central tourist area, but all the major sights were only about a 15-20 minute walk away and we didn't mind at all.

United KingdomI guess the immediate surroundings of the hotel is less 'pretty', the view from some of the windows is either the street or back yards to other flats. However this doesn't take away from the quality of the stay and access to the cities attractions.
The air-conditioning in summer worked perfectly and kept the room temperature nice and cool. The staff were extremely welcoming and very professional. The room was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. The breakfast buffet was fantastic and had more than enough choices.

SpainNo complaints, we were happy with our stay at Sercotel Carlos III and would be glad to stay there again.
The hotel was absolutely perfect for our short stay in Cartagena with family. The location is convenient and just a short walk from all the popular tourist areas in the city centre. The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating with check-in requirements and were helpful. The room was spacious, well equipped, clean, comfortable beds and had all the amenities you would need. Overall, excellent value and a great option for a family of 4 visiting Cartagena.
