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.).

GermanyLittle space in the bathroom, we missed shelves for toiletteries. Very thin walls to the other rooms.
Nice location, a typical English house. The underground and also a railway station are nearby. Breakfast at Lola's Bakery was delicious and you get 25 % off. Pleasant neighborhood with lots of supermarkets, pubs and shops. Small but superb bathroom with excellent shower. The bed was comfortable and the room decoration was very nice.

FinlandThe room was different than shown in the pictures when booking. The room is small and the beds are not very comfortable. It's manageable though. Check-in is around 3PM which is quite late. The breakfast offer at Lola bakery is until 9:30 and only weekdays, nobody mentions that. Though it is printed small on the booklets.
Goog location, quiet neighborhood. Underground and overground stations nearby. Stores nearby. Very quiet and peaceful place to stay.

IrelandThe check-in experience could have been smoother. I appreciate that not having a 24-hour reception can make paying upon arrival tricky, but the whole pre-check in messaging and files exchange on Whatsapp and payment link outside the official communication from Booking is a bit off-putting. Not to mention check-in is at 3 but the reception closes at 4, so a short window otherwise you need to grab keys elsewhere etc Frankly I would have cancelled had it not been a last-minute booking because the check-in process sounded a bit sketchy to me. But it was all good in the end, and the room was quite good so no regrets.
The room was spacious, clean, comfortable and looked recently renovated, with a good private bathroom. The shower was excellent with plenty of hot water and strong pressure – all of the above being a rarity in London budget accommodation in my experience. The area is safe with good amenities and transport links.

NorwayIt is an older house so you could hear everything the people staying above us were doing at all times. No problem as long as your neighbours aren't night owls.

ItalyThe floor is covered in moquette, that i dont like very much and the room, for three persons is really small, but we used it only for sleeping and so this has not been a big problem. Mattresses are excessively soft for my tastes. The absence of shutters at the windows means that at 5 AM the room is already fully illuminated
The room was very comfy, with nice furnitures and very clean. I apreciated the shower size and the number of electrical outlets. Great position, close to jubilee line under and over ground stop, lot of stores, good for every sudden need. I apreciated a lot the brecakfast convention with Lola Bakery.

CanadaThe front door is really hard to open, we struggled with it every time. The room smelled like some strong cleaner agent even after we left the window open for a few days. They only give you one towel - no face or hand towel. Hot water is hard to regulate. The bed is too soft. The TV didn't work
It's located by London underground and Overground, so it's convenient to travel to various locations. There is even a direct bus to Stansted airport. There are various restaurants in the area and even a breakfast spot that provides a discount to the guests of Charlotte House.
