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 StatesIt was difficult for my aging mother with disabilities to climb the stairs to our room, as there was no lift. She did make it up, and the staff was kind about helping us with luggage. But I wasn't expecting to be on the third floor with only stairs!
Quirky hotel with a nice selection of whisk(e)ys and decent free light breakfast. Room was tiny but exactly what we needed and were expecting.

United KingdomOnly downside was the boiler which would come on during the night with a humming then tapping noise, I didn't get much sleep, and wake up totally exhausted. We had rooms on different floors, but it was the same on both. The boiler needs fixing immediately.
What a beautiful hotel. The interior was first class, with lots of extra unique designs. Staff are very helpful and the free tea and coffee in the lounge, an added bonus. .

United KingdomThe shower and toilet is always a little cramped, but at least the water is always hot. I would not say that there is anything else that I did not like, as this is my usual "go to" hotel when staying in London.
Staff were friendly and helpful. They now offer free bar snacks! As well as the usual tea and coffee. The balcony that accompanied with this room was also really good. Always good wifi too :)

United KingdomOur room was up some very tight/steep stairs. Not an issue if you are mobile, however may be difficult for some. Air conditioning in the room kept resetting to 25 degrees for some reason so was quite warm.
Nicely decorated hotel. Great location 2 minute walk from Kings Cross Station. Our room had nice little outdoor area. Although we didn't use it, downstairs was a very nice looking bar area with plenty of room to sit.

BelgiumOur room was located in the basement, which was unexpected for a rate of 300€ pee night. In addition, because of some works nearby, there was intense noise from early in the morning, even on Saturday morning. That upset our sleep.
The staff was super friendly 🙏

LuxembourgOur room (5) was just under the restaurant so lots of steps above. Area was not the best with loads of junkies in the park in front. Breakfast was pretty poor and not very fresh.
The size of the room was really good and the room was clean and nice.

AustraliaOur room was directly underneath the hall way and even though it was sound proofed very well in general, the footsteps (weight of walking) did come through and it could be a little unsettling during the night for some. It was a very pleasant stay nonetheless.
The hotel is within minutes of walk from King’s Cross station, which was why we chose it in the first place. The atmosphere was cosy and the room was very clean and spacious. The bed was very comfortable. Tea and coffee was even offered on site when we check in/out. Shame we didn’t have time to sit down and enjoy a cuppa! Next time then ;-)

United KingdomUnfortunate incident when the lights all went out as we were going to bed. The man on reception tried his best to solve the problem and got one light going. Then, after he had gone we found we couldn’t switch that light off and had to sleep with it on as it was getting too late to wait for further efforts to sort the problem out. Mysteriously at some point during the night that light went out of its own accord but as a result I had to get up for my early train in the dark and in the gloom didn’t notice I had left my reading-specs behind so went off to Europe without them. I understand the problem was fixed promptly next morning after I had left.
Potentially a pleasant stay and a useful base if using Eurostar.

United KingdomThe only negative was where our room was located, which was in the basement underneath the bar/breakfast area. It was therefore noisy, we could hear people walking above and chairs scraping and not just during the day. It was a walk through so could hear people return in the early hours and the staff started getting ready for breakfast at around 5am! For that reason I wouldn't stay in that twin room again but i'm sure other rooms would be fine.
We were 2 friends and had twin room. It was large and comfortable with chairs and table too. Beds were comfy and shower etc were good, had everything we needed. Quirky interior which I thought was fab. Ideal location, few mins walk from King's Cross Station.

Saudi ArabiaThere was a cobweb on the bathroom's door.. otherwise the rest of the room was clean. The bed was smaller than anticipated and might be uncomfortable for people who prefer a lot of space when sleeping. Do note that there are no elevators and you might have to carry your bags up and down the stairs.
The location was great, 5 minutes walking from King's cross station. Many restaurants in the area. The room was cozy and good for a short stay in London. The shower was good. The lighting distribution and control was good.
