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 KingdomThere are a lot of stairs to climb. But we’re young and able so it’s a minor concern.

AustraliaI wish it was clearer on the booking app that there was no lift - travelling with international luggage is hard when there's multiple flights of steps and a colleague with bad knees

United KingdomThe kitchen was somewhat underequiped - larger range of bowls/plates etc needed. Would have struggled to cook a full meal. A coffee maker would have been nice in a luxury property like this. Limited entertainment facilities - just one TV - no books, games, dvds etc.
Great balcony with superb view. Convenient Location. Stylishly decorated throughout. Comfortable furnishings. Nice toiletries provided.

United KingdomMattresses were a bit soft for our liking but that's personal preference and being really pernickety the towels were very small!
Convenient location, neighbouring road is very busy so it was quite noisy sitting out on the terrace but it did quieten down. It was only 7-8 min drive from the Quays and Docks which were lovely. Apartment was very clean and plenty of plates etc The apartment is presented very well , it's not quite as generous size wise as it looks but was still very comfortable for the 6 of us and we would look to stay again when we return to visit family

United KingdomThe lighting in the bedrooms were a little on the dark side, a little problematic when doing your makeup. However the lighting in the bathrooms were good. The vacuum cleaner was damaged and I would suggest replacing it.
The terrace was lovely to sit out in. The apartment felt spacious, the interior design was nice and the apartment was nice and clean.

United KingdomUnfortunately we did find the rooms quite hot and at night with the windows open, it was fairly noisy with the traffic nearby. The parking space is quite tight also. In saying that it would not put us off and we'd happily stay here again.
The decor was lovely and the rooftop terrace was a nice touch. Well equipped apartment with everything that you need and the biscuits were well received, a lovely gesture! Check in/out was so easy and straight forward.
