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.).

New ZealandThis place was in an awesome location close to bars and restaurants, nightlife etc. Formerly the old Bristol police station a long time ago, it's fairly new as a hostel and has been very nicely renovated with very cool decor that reflects the unique personality of Bristol including some custom wall artwork in the stairwells. My single room was of excellent standard for a very reasonable price and the shared bathroom was clean and modern. Very comfy bed which is hard to find in hostels. Great location.

EstoniaI didn’t like that the old doors make so much sound while opening and closing, it disturbs everyone in the room. The lift is very old, and operating that is quite some work.
I liked the bedsheet on the bunk beds, the toilets were always clean. The ground floor is the common room and it’s very cosy. The location is excellent - close to the city centre.

United KingdomA very lovely and clean environment. The bedroom was perfect for a one night stay and we had had no issues whatsoever with the shared bathrooms. We felt comfortable throughout our visit, with a beautiful kitchen and living room area, and very friendly staff. Would definitely stay here again.

The hostel provides everything that is needed. Nice and relaxed atmosphere. Public kitchen and breakfast for free. Beds with all around curtains for some privacy and lockers for the luggage.

The whole place was clean and operational. Rooms were big, bunks were decent, staff were lovely and for the price it was exceptional. No real complaints.

United KingdomBedroom and corridor doors are noisy, so if you are a light sleeper you might want to use earplugs.
This is easily the nicest hostel I ever stayed in! I had a nice, spacious and bright single room. Shared bathrooms were clean and have powerful showers. Received a complimentary sleep kit with an eye mask and ear plugs. The kitchen is well equipped and clean. Free breakfast cereals and a selection of teas and coffees. There is a 24 hour reception desk, all staff were very helpful. Central location, easy to walk everywhere. Would definitely book again the next time I visit Bristol.

United KingdomCan be noisy but like mentioned, plugs help and after a certain time city becomes quieter so no real issue.
Good location. Little extras like eye mask, ear plugs were a bonus as it can be quite noisy in the city. Very comfortable bed. Large, clean and spacious room. Tea and coffee and cereal offered too. Very pleasant staff. Looking to book again imminently.
