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.).

United KingdomA very spacious and comfortable apartment in a quiet and peaceful location. It is furnished and equipped to a really high standard. Access using the keypad and PIN is easy, and the luggage store was an added bonus.

United Kingdom- n/a
- check in/out was easy and seamless - all digital, though hosts were quickly reachable through the booking app - location is fantastic - central and quick to get to the tram / walk to royal mile, yet also tucked near the embassies so felt safe and quiet - flat itself was the perfect size and clean, exactly as pics suggested - we preferred the highest flat and it was well communicated beforehand that there is no lift so we had no issues with stairs - amenities within the flat were also a nice touch - a clear manual with instructions and food recommendations, a couple biscuits, clean cutlery (no scratched up pans!), coffee pods and biscuits - building has luggage storage

I loved the space and the high ceilings. The decor was minimalist and clean bathroom and bathtub were beautiful and functioned well. Hosts were lovely and very helpful with local tips. Heating system was great and access to and from Building added to feeling safe in an unfamiliar area.

The apartment was absolutely beautiful. Bright and airy with lovely decor. The bath is amazing and the showers were great too. It was spotlessly clean, genuinely couldn't have been any cleaner. I appreciated the little touches like coffee and biscuits.

United KingdomNot a thing I can think of regarding the property.
Location is perfect, apartment is amazing with lots of original features which adds to the character, a quirky layout which adds to the appeal. It's a hidden gem of a place to stay, which should keep to myself 🤣 Steady 10 mins to the main street for shopping with lots of nice cafes and food places within a short walk, a 25 mins walk from the property along the Royal Mile to the castle.

United Kingdom1. The TV remote is quite unresponsive in quite a few buttons. It was truly inconvenient. 2. The blind operation was flimsy. The blind rope was getting detached very frequently. We could easily attach it and use again but quite an annoying thing. 3. The oven needs a thorough cleaning. Trays had food grease from previous uses and it was smelly. 4. While booking through booking.com website it was impossible to know which floor the flat is in. It’s a crucial information they should provide before booking. We were lucky to get the 1st floor flat. The building has no lift and dragon suites manage quite a few similar flats in the same building.
Location was convenient - 3 min walk from west end tram station, lots of options for cafe/eateries/grocery/pharmacy, peaceful neighbourhood. Both dean village and princess street is walkable. The flat was spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. There was a manual to describe each and every thing about the flat facilities which was handy. The kitchen was well stocked with necessary kitchen supplies.

IcelandWe had two apartments and the bigger one was very good, but in the smaller one you had to go through the bedroom to go to the toilette. We were 3 adults there and it was inconvenient. We didn't notice that arrangement when we ordered. We tried to contact the host but they didn´t answer. Everything else was excellent.
We liked to stay there and the apartment was mostly as we expected.

United KingdomNothing negative to say about the apartment we were in. Apartment 4, which is a two double bed apartment. Plenty of space, each bedroom had separate bath/shower room and there was an additional toilet off the lounge, excellent accommodation.
Key code was advised the day before arrival. While you can't access the apartment until arrival time the code allowed entry to the building and access to a secure left luggage area in advance of entry time to the apartment. As the apartment is in a great location for a coffee/walk/shopping this was greatly appreciated.

It was very spacious, central heating, very well-equipped with a fully functional modern kitchen, laundry room, 3 spacious bedrooms with 2 ensuites and the 3rd room had it's access to their own bathroom. We had a lovely time with the family playing games and it was lovely to come back home to nice comfortable beds after a long day of exploring. 15 mins from the city and we loved it because we enjoy walking.

Beautifully decorated apartments which are a short stroll to the centre of Edinburgh. Fully equipped with everything you could need for a luxurious stay in Edinburgh. 1st class service from the team who resolved a small issue within 30 minutes of me contacting them (and it was late at night). Would not hesitate to stay again or recommend to others. 5 minute walk to the tram stop for the airport. Luggage storage facilities at the apartments. Cannot fault these apartments.
