Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThe parking is an issue. Too expensive and it's £12.50 for 24 hours meaning I spent £25 for a 2 night stay. The staff didn't know that the price advertised on the website was different to the price on the app. The secondary parking area was not mentioned until I prompted them and when I tried the code it wouldn't work. The only reason I chose this hotel was the price and when you are in the parking charge I could've stayed elsewhere. The location is awful, it's like a scene from downtown LA or zombie apocalypse when you walk towards the centre, drug taking, gangs hanging about and obvious crack heads on each corner. On top of that there is an obvious sewer issue in that area that can't be mistaken.
Really modern and lovely rooms with professional staff.

United KingdomThe lift was broken and we were on the 6th floor, absolutely spoilt our stay, was a nightmare to climb that amount of stairs especially with a small child. We're also informed by another guest that the lift issue has been ongoing for a good few weeks.
Friendly staff, lovely young guy on checkout polite and gave us ice to take to our room and sorted someone to help us with our luggage. Good variety at breakfast and friendly happy staff

AustraliaMy husband has one leg and on crutches and lifts have been out for over a month. Crutching up to the second floor several times was a health hazard. If we had of been told before hand I would have gone elsewhere. Kettle didn’t work but were given another one. Staff were extremely helpful. Dinner in restaurant was ok. Our room stunk of cigarettes and staff shrugged it off
Breakfast was ample. Bacon. Eggs. Toast. Cereals. Yogurt. Coffee was good too. Had the best nights sleep. Pillows are great and comfy bed. Bar and restaurant onsite

MalaysiaThe lift doesn’t work, and hasn’t been since April 2024(according to the staff). Our room was 208, and we had to carry our baggage up 8 flights of stairs and down again for check-out. There was no help altho we requested for it. Darriel helped with one bag only during check in. The kettle was not working, they replaced with one full of scales and later changed to a working one no scales after we complained. The fact that the lift doesn’t work and will not be fully in use during our stay should have been told to us before we paid in full (we paid b4 our arrival). We would have stayed at a different place. We are 63 & 64 years old. To carry our luggage up and down 8 flights of steps was really inconvenient.
Darriel at the front desk was friendly and helpful. I like that breakfast is on ‘grab & go’ for early travellers like us. The hotel allowed us to pack even before 6.30am(that’s when their breakfast service officially starts). The train station is walking distance and so is the high street.

United KingdomIt would have been nice to have been pre informed that the lifts were out of action and have been for a while according to some of the staff. In addition although the hotel says it has parking it is very small, not just the number of spaces but also the size of the spaces so if you have a larger vehicle you are really going to struggle to park. Saying that there is a public car bark not far away.
Very friendly staff who really made you feel welcome. Nice drop off area in front of the hotel. Rooms where clean, neat and tidy.

Romania-
We highly appreciate the properties in this hotel chain. Unfortunately, the location of this hotel is not a very touristic one and it does not seem very safe either. The hotel is under renovation, you go up the service stairs, not very fancy. The rooms, however, as we are used to: clean and decent. If you come by car, you should know that they do not have their own parking lot, but it is a closed parking lot, it costs 12 pounds for 24 hours and you must have an account on the ring go application. Unfortunately, this app only supports UK phone numbers. If you come from another country, you cannot register with the phone number from your country. We lost a few hours until we managed to pay for the parking lot, because we happened to be during Easter, with days off.

Two flights of stairs with luggage late at night with an injured ankle wasnt fun. At Departure time I had to extend time due lift being out of use and walk to station difficult.
Hotel good value. Breakfast good. Clean and tidy. Bathroom too. Good bright and airy room.
