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.).

CanadaWe did look at the breakfast available for a fee but felt it wasn't worth the price.
Room was clean and varily large. Location was awesome and relative to everything. Staff were super friendly and accommodating. We arrived early and left after check out and both times our luggage was put away in a locked room at no charge. Lots of UK hotels and pubs have gone to a cashless system but we were able to pay by cash here for our room.

United KingdomRoom decor was and feel was stripped down to a basic budget hotel room. I was not expecting to pay £162 per night for a room with nothing in it, and a disabled toilet that made it feel like a Hospital room. Simply not good enough. Breakfast was below expectations, definitely not in line with other hotels with similar prices. £14 for the breakfast you offer is simply not good enough.
Location is great, right next to St Andrews Square, minute away from George Street and Waverley Train Station. Bed was very comfortable, water in the shower had good pressure.

United KingdomThe room could have been cleaner. I could see dust marks where the hoover hadn't gone all the way into the corners near the bed, for example, which was a little disappointing as otherwise it was a good place to stay.
The room was comfortable and had all of the facilities I required for my stay. The TV offers a good range of channels and there was a desk to work on in the evenings. Plenty of hanging and storage space too.

KenyaThere was no bottled water available to drink and was informed I should drink the tap water. The location for uber to reach was tricky, as the taxi's drivers didn't come up to the front of the hotel, making it difficult to get to the corner with all my luggage. Nobody available to assist with luggage. Didn't like the carpets in the room.
The hotel and room were clean and comfortable.

United KingdomThere was no lock on the bathroom door and it didn’t close properly. Although the main door is locked at 10pm we returned just before 10pm and there were youths in the entrance hall. Although they didn’t cause us any problems and were polite, I could see some guests being unsettled by this.
Location was excellent. Staff were friendly and polite. Room was clean.
