Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomParking is VERY expensive! We were lucky to be there over a bank holiday so no charges but £12 for the morning was exceptionally expensive
Walking in to the enterance you can already tell the rooms will be nice by the double height ceilings but to be walking into the largest hotel room I’ve ever stayed in I was not expecting! STUNNING room for the price paid and dog friendly too

Czech RepublicThe room was a bit noisy in the morning - we were in the second floor and you could hear when they started to prepare breakfast; beds were softer than I would appreciate but I guess that is a problem almost in the whole UK :)
Good location within a walking distance from the city center; quite fancy looking older hotel with great value for money; tasty breakfast - you can choose from the bufet or menu or both. We appreciated the possibility to leave our luggae in the hotel after the check out.

United KingdomHeating, would be our only gripe.
Family run business working hard as a team to deliver a good experience for guests. Nice bar area and comfortable bed. The room was cold and the radiator didn't seem to come on. However once the team provided a small heater we were nice and warm. Thanks for a nice stay. This hotel is in a great location to discover Edinburgh. The tram runs from outside the property right into town, also there is a train station in the same location right outside if you prefer.

United KingdomBuffet style breakfast was nice but maybe sightly bigger pick-up space would be easier.
Staff are very friendly and they have great hospitality. Location is superb so I understand the price...Really convenient! Breakfast was nice. If you have a big or heavy suitcase, be prepared for stairs! Also, the bathroom floor can be extremely slippy when using shower so be careful! (at least the room I stayed)

United KingdomThe stairs were tricky as our room was on the top floor in the building next door (hotel is made of 6 separate buildings) Walls are thin, it was fairly noisy when other guests came in late at night.
Fabulous location, easy access to the centre via tram/bus which are literally round the corner. Staff very friendly and attentive. Breakfast was good, a lot of choice.

As soon as you walk in, the team are super welcoming and helpful! Location is fanatstic - just 10-15 min walk to the city centre, and just minutes from Haymarket Station. Beds were comfy, rooms clean and tastefully decorated. Great little bar with local drinks too.
