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.).

CanadaIf on a budget, I wouldn’t recommend this as a base place to stay while visiting Edinburgh as the cost of the tram rides would take up any savings.
The room is very compact but well laid out and clean. A good place to stay before flying out from Edinburgh airport the following morning. Especially for the reasonable price. It was easily accessed by tram from downtown Edinburgh and to the airport. The hotel is just a few minutes walk from the tram stop.

United KingdomThe room is tiny, so wouldn’t recommend for long stays or with person who you dont know very well as toilet isn’t very private and there is no separate bathroom, just shower in the room, so my partner was a bit struggling to take a shower when our 8year old daughter was in a room, you literally go out from the shower to a room, sink is also in the room. Not much space for clothes and no place to hang wet towels after showering.
When I choose the property I knew it was located far from the city, which I dont mind, as the transport links (Tram) it is just by hotel, £5 daily ticket for trams and busses or £10.50 for daily family ticket. The property was well maintained and continental breakfast was included in a price. Actually very nice hotel with comfy beds, great for price comparing to other hotels. The staff was friendly and rooms were clean.

United KingdomLots of rubbish in the corridor as we arrived at 3.30 - 30 mins after checking in time on our email. I would have thought all the tidying up would have been completed way before our arrival? Glass bottles and smashed glasses on the grass outside, potentially dangerous to animals/ children arriving at the front of the hotel. None of that was cleaned up in the two days of our stay. Staff chatting at front desk could have easily cleaned this up. Some one had been sick in the bin on our arrival in the men’s toilets. We told reception about that straight away.

FranceThe room looked like a hospital bedroom with mdf furniture and greeny-grey colours; for the price, it was quite unappealing. The breakfast was better across the road as well.
The location and staff were great, I used to live in Edinburgh, so I am not exactly a tourist: I know how to get around the city; for my money, this hotel was very convenient, next to a tram stop and across a supermarket/ shopping center for cafés and take away snacks; it gave me a chance to be with local people rather than hordes of tourists.

United KingdomWe booked a specific time for breakfast. There were no sausages or bacon and very little else cooked for over half an hour! We were told it was because of a rush. BUT there were specific time slots so they must have known how many were coming at that time. Was VERY DISAPPOINTED with the service at breakfast on our first morning and didn’t book the next day. Not worth nearly £12 each for NO COOKED food and nobody around to speak to as to why.
The location was fantastic. Also loved the decor. The view and atmosphere in the bar was lovely and the lifts worked well 😀
