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 rooms were very dated and floor boards creaking, you could hear the people above walking around. The cold tap on the bath didn't work so had to cool the bath down by filling the kettle from the sink several times.
The location was excellent with easy access to the main areas of London and taxi's passed by every few minutes to take you further afield. The breakfast was also very good, piping hot and plenty of good quality ingredients.

United KingdomBathroom fan worked continuously with no way to switch off usually fan starts when light on and goes off after light switched off decided by timer inbuilt to fan.
Adequate breakfast choice, the staff were friendly and helpful, our room was very tired with patchy area around air-con and windows also the bathroom shower fan was operating permanently and quite noisy with the door open not to annoying when door shut and as only there 2 nights couldn't be bothered to complain though mentioned it to reception when checking out seems it should have been timed shut-off. The location is excellent and a short walk from Tottenham Court Tube Station, easy to walk to Theatre-land and Coven Garden, also other city quarters.

United KingdomDecor is a little dated but it was not an issue with us as it matched with the style of the property and the location, price and breakfast more than made up for it.
The hotel is ideally located near Soho and Covent Garden. Although the decor is a bit dated, the rooms had everything needed and it was walking distance to most points of interest. Staff were helpful and we really enjoyed the breakfast. A full English breakfast with good coffee was a great start for a full day sightseeing. I would book again.

United KingdomThe property is a little dated in decor but everything was clean and tidy.
The location of this hotel is fantastic, only around three minutes walk from Tottenham Court Road and around 15/20 min walk from the theatres. My single room was lovely and spacious, and the bed was really comfy. Staff were friendly and the breakfast was great.

United KingdomThe Wi-Fi connection was very poor, didn’t like the fact the room was a distance away from the main hotel, and the greeting/welcome was very much ‘you’re on your own’, worth noting the bathroom was freezing during a particularly cold spell in early December. Quite expensive for what you get.
Great Location and breakfast was OK for London, produce could be of better quality.

We had a basement room with no real view. It was spacious for London with a good sized bed and other facilities. The room was larger than what you usually find in London. Staff were welcoming and helpful

United KingdomThe rooms are in need of updating they are clean but cramped. Price is too high and does not reflect the tiredness of the property. There are many other hotels with similar sized rooms that cost the same and are better inside. Location is good though beds are clean and breakfast was good
