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.).

United KingdomOnly 1 lift working so had to wait ages. Floorboards uneven under the carpet, not only in the room but in corridors too. Coffee really awful, both in room and at breakfast.
Good breakfast, buffet style but very good.

TaiwanWe're being put in a wired-shaped room, and the window was so far away that we couldn't really close it; therefore, quite a lot of bugs fly into our room. The toilet was really hard to flush because of the old infrastructure.
The room was pretty big with beautiful interior of the building, and location is close to the station by walking.

GibraltarWhen getting back at night, it was not sufficient with showing our keys to the 2 door guardians. They claim this is for security purposes, however they go into as deep as asking first and last names, and once verified, they go on to also request the same from my wife whilst we are holding hands! This element of who can get through, whilst they look at the list, is poor. The door card also keeps disconnecting with the usual questions that date back to the 90s... don't put this next to a mobile or wallet/card.....none applied, yet when we had to get into the room we had to get all our way back to reception for reactivation to our key for room number ... It was as simple as giving them the room number we wanted to activate with less questions asked than when trying to enter the hotel at night!
The location of this hotel is great. its a stone throw away from the shopping area, and busy social hotspots.

United KingdomPaying for WiFi in the room is ridiculous, room was extra space, but not for a double, but for 4 people to stay, with only the double bed was on the lower floor two single beds on the upper floor where the TV was situated, room were out-dated, so was the shower room. View was poor, office building opposite the hotel room.
It’s good situated in the centre, the breakfast was good value for the money. staff was friendly and helpful.
