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.).

IrelandMy main issue was the mattress. It was uncomfortable - very lumpy. But other than that I can't complain.
I really liked the hotel; it was new, clean and I really liked the design. The water station on each floor was extremely helpful. The room we had was spotless and although it was small, we didn't feel cramped. We stayed on the 3rd floor. It's also nice to have an a/c in the room. The location of the hotel is ideal and it was very quiet at night.

GermanyI was told breakfast was included, nobody was receiving me in the morning and I still do not know how it should have worked and then I ordered a Cafe Latte at the bar which they wanted to charge extra what I declined. I actually had to leave the hotel as it all took too long and I was little bit in a hurry
Overall a nice and quiet hotel in a nice location

United StatesThe bathroom could have been a tiny bit bigger. The shower itself was wonderful and spacious. However, the sink was too small to wash my face, and too close to the toilet. Despite this, I would stay here again. The service is too good, and the hotel amenities are just fantastic, including yoga, sauna, and massage.
Our room was incredibly spacious. There were two of us, and we could move around in it without feeling claustrophobic. The beds were incredibly comfortable too. I never had an issue with falling asleep. Also, the service was outstanding. Everyone we encountered was super attentive and very friendly. Plus, the hotel was a only short walk to Paddington Station and the Pride of Paddington, which was very convenient.

South AfricaI asked for a quiet room, which I got and was very grateful for it. The second night I could hear other guests arriving at 2 am and could hear them talking (which carried on for an hour), so the soundproofing between rooms are not great. The beds are great, but a bit too firm for my liking and pillows are very firm. I don’t like that. Lastly, I feel spoons in the room would be more sustainable than wooden stirrers which I feel is a lot more taxing on the environment. But very well done on all other efforts!
The location is wonderful! I booked it as it was close to Paddington station (and the Heathrow express) but really did not expect the area to be so gorgeous and lush. The room was lovely with ample, very cleverly designed storage spaces. I loved all of the environmentally sustainable efforts. Whilst others might complain about it, the fact that you can book and have the sauna and fitness room to your disposal without sharing with anyone, for me, was bliss! And this is included free of charge! Loved the free water (and tea and coffee stations) all over, this made a huge difference for me! The staff were all very friendly, courteous, efficient and lovely! Service scores very high. They all made me feel seen & important and always offered to help. Overall, a great hotel!

AustriaEven though I had already paid in advance, the reception asked me for a deposit of 50 or 60 GPB, the purpose of which was never explained (I did get it back in a week or so). Even though the booking was under my name - and this was corroborated by the passport I presented, the receptionist kept addressing my companion when we checked in about all the administrative matters. Access to the lower ground floor was only by elevator, which there was a bit of a wait for. The room was on the lower ground floor - it was bloody cold, so we left the heating turned up during the evening.
Location, location, location! Good value for money. I loved the complimentary toiletries brand and the sustainability vibe. The bed was comfy and the room had efficient storage use. I did not opt for breakfast, but did enjoy some of the breakfast items on my last day and found it very nutritious and healthy. The area is really posh and feels safe. It was super easy to get around to central attractions.

SwitzerlandWe had a room facing the back(yard); the view wasn't the prettiest, but the room was quiet. Overall, the hotel is not that fancy as it looks. Teabags and coffees weren't refilled, although we only had one room service once during our 4-night stay. We had to ask the front desk. At least they have a water station with teabags; which was convenient. 2, 3 underground stations nearby (although not that close).

United KingdomNo fridge in the room so if you wanted to store anything cold was an issue. The air freshener they use in the rooms gave me a terrible headache, I asked the staff in the morning to please remove it but when I came back to the room about 8 hours later it was still there and the fake pine smell was overpowering! The rooms could do with some soundproofing!
The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and the filtered water available both in the room and on the corridor was a nice touch. The wooden floors and Scandì-decor feels clean and fresh. The location was good and, as a single female traveller, I felt safe in the area. Easy walking distance to public transportation.

Iceland1 member of staff was not trained to be able to serve customers for breakfast. Took a long time to take my breakfast order and therefore ended up waiting for longer than necessary to eat. I was there for work and usually I need to eat quickly and get to work without delays, however luckily this time, work didn't start until later so I could take my time. The slow service due to someone not being trained just felt very unprofessional - especially because I had already pre-ordered and paid for the set meal so that I could just eat quickly and go. Was a stark contrast to the rest of the stay. However, I would like to highlight that this member of staff was extremely polite and welcoming, just like the rest of your staff. 1 final thing: the coffee was really bad. Good quality coffee is so important for me personally. Just these 2 tweaks and I would have given it a perfect score.
Good decor, clean, not noisy, nice spec e.g. good quality linen, furniture and items.
