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 KingdomNothing everything was better than expected.
My Exec Premium Room was spacious, bright and clean. The bed was pretty comfortable, there was plenty of work desk space and a seating area to work from as well, plenty of sockets for business use and charging. The complementary mini bar was well stocked and the bathroom was spotless. Underground car park with 1.8m height restriction at very reasonable rates. Restaurant served quality, tasteful food and the service was good throughout my short stay.

A fantastic price for a fantastic location with the underground only a 5 minute walk away. Lots of food and drink options within walking distance and free breakfast for kids at the hotel if you choose that option.

United Kingdomwas only staying for one night and checkout was at 12pm, wasn't expecting to be woken up around 8am by the cleaner knocking loudly on the door and coming into the room wanting to clean, then to return twice more, even despite putting the do not disturb sign on the door, it's like they were trying to make us leave. I understand if we were there for multiple nights we may not be in the room in the morning, but for just one night, we wanted to use the room until the check out time - maybe worth seeing who has checked out before waking them up trying to go into their rooms. we booked the hotel for use after a work party, so didn't get back until around 2am and was hoping to have a nice sleep before checking out, but was not to be.
room was nice, lots of space, very clean, staff were friendly and helpful upon arrival, beds were comfortable and had nice cushioned pillows, big mirror in the bathroom, sweets and juice in the lobby area.

CanadaRooms need to be updated. The bathroom is not in good condition Moodle. and water everywhere when taking a shower poor design. On my last day, I came down at 9:55 am for breakfast the host would not let us in and said we were late while there were people inside still eating and moving around. He was rude not about it so our 22-pound a person for breakfast was a total loss. Not impressed with the Novotel standards.
The location was great close to the train station and within walking distance of most local shops and restaurants .

GreeceAs far as room cleaningness is concerned, i ‘d expect a bit higher level of it. We had booked 2 rooms. The sheets & towels were clean. The first day upon arrival there was a dirty spot at the toilet seat in one of our rooms.
Friendly & polite staff, very customer centric. Nice reception & bar/restaurant place with plenty of space for having a drink or/& dinner while the children amuse themselves as well in the spacious place. Nice location, close to Hammersmith metro station. Offered Free mini water bottles complementary for us every day in the room. Value for money
