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.).

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms are pretty clean. Breakfast was worth it.

United KingdomNoise, I could hear lots of activity outside and in the corridor late at night. I was also kept awake from the snoring of the person in the room next to us, on the far side of where the beds were, so walls aren't great sound wise.
The receptionist was so welcoming and friendly. Our room was a good size and was clean and comfortable..... Fantastic pillows 🙂

IrelandThis was a last-minute booking so we cannot complain too much, but our room was just above where a Christmas party was taking place, so the noise was extremely loud and we had great difficulty getting to sleep. The other thing is the poor internet connection, which always seems to be a problem at the Balmoral.
We have stayed at the Balmoral many times. The room was, as always, very clean. The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast was good. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

United KingdomWe could hear people talking clearly in the hallway aswell as next door neighbours pulling their curtains. Most hotels have king size beds, I forgot how small a double is for 2 people. The extractor fan in the bathroom didn’t work therefore had to keep window open in bedroom to help with steam. In saying all of this, I would recommend the hotel & it wouldn’t put me off returning. The hotel bar & restaurant's are clean, modern & friendly. All staff pleasant & the cost of our stay was extremely reasonable.
Staff at breakfast were very welcoming. Food selection was fantastic, could not fault it at all. The bedroom was lovely & warm also equipped with a portable fan if you got too warm. The bedroom window was able to be opened (has a safety catch too). The hairdryer was modern & in good working order. Plenty of great storage space within the room is always a bonus. We got a taxi into the centre of Belfast £15 each way, a little expensive for a 10 min journey but maybe that’s just the prices these days.

United KingdomIf I had to use the shower in the ground floor room, there would not be a seat for the shower despite the bathroom being big enough to facilitate such a thing. With two wheelchairs you could just about get around the room
Loved the interior of the venue & the room was clean. Staff were lovely and helpful in rephrasing sentences (from a deaf person perspective)
