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 Arab EmiratesOverall it was a good experience with the family however I believe there is a good amount of improvement area in elevating the food standards specially the breakfast. There are very few elevators available which cause longer waiting time than usual specially during check in and check out times.
Location is amazing wherein anyone can reach out to London Eye and other attractions through 5 mins walk. Room sizes are quite moderate. Staff is very helpful and extends a helping hand as and when needed

United KingdomThe bar prices are very high and the sofa bed wasn’t that comfy for the children. It’s a bit of a walk from the tube station as well.
The room was excellent, the view from the balcony was amazing, and we had everything we needed. The pool was welcoming to children with plenty of availability and the staff were accommodating and kind. We got a complimentary early check-in when we arrived a bit early as well.

United KingdomThe AC wasn't cooling sufficiently, and the room felt warm instead of cold, even though the temperature was set to 18°.
I went there for one night with my wife to celebrate our 20th anniversary, and it was amazing by all means. We received a complimentary upgrade to a river-view smart room, which was spacious and included a Nespresso coffee machine and pods. We could control the lights, AC, and curtains all from the touch panels available next to the door and the bed. The view was great from the 8th floor. The staff were really helpful and professional. The checkout process was via the app and was as smooth as it should be.

United KingdomWeird layout made working out where things were difficult. Minor thing but I didn’t like having massive tvs on showing kids shows on at breakfast but to be fair we could have requested a table further away. Pool looked yellow due to the lighting weirdly and breakfast served in massive ballroom repurposed
Kid friendly touches like a goody bag upon arrival and kids section of buffet. About a 20 minute brisk walk from Westminster tube, large rooms, kids eat free when adult meals purchased in on site restaurant

We Staid for the second time, now, not selecting the ecological program, the staff was helpful, the breakfast was really good and give high value for money.

AustraliaWe paid a lot extra for a river view room and were placed on the 4th floor with a tree completely blocking our view. It took some persuasion to be allocated a room with the view we had paid for. There was no hot water to the bath and I reported this immediately. It was not resolved until two days later, having had to report the problem a second time.
Excellent location, very friendly staff with the exception of one surly female at reception.

United KingdomThis is the first time we had breakfast there and I was dissapointed. Lots of the food was running out, the paper labels on the jams/spreads had fallen over so didn't know what they were and very messy The breakfast tea bags/plates/batter for the pancake/ bread had run out and took ages to get it topped up., To have to go outside for a nice coffee seemed strange aswell. The whole thing seemed disorganised
