Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

MexicoVery few Lifts for the # of rooms, we were on the 2nd floor and used the stairs. One particular lady at the Lounge was a bit rude, but other members were awesome and helpful.
In general, a nice & clean hotel at a great location. We had access to the Executive Lounge and Breakfast and snacks thereafter were tasty. Tea-Coffee machines & Minibar were refilled daily. Wifi was great in the room too.

IrelandThe entrance and reception.
The location was excellent, I will stay again for this reason, however the entrance and reception were not great, certainly did not feel like a 4 star hotel, more like a hostel. I could not fault the room, staff or location though which is more important. I did however not get a good first impression from the entrance and reception.

United KingdomThere are 2 lifts which in my opinion is ridiculous for the size of the hotel. And there is the use of an escalator to reach the 1st floor where you check in yet only stairs to use in coming down the stairs so ideally not suitable for people who have trouble with steps
Location was great for shops and transport links

United KingdomLift were being refurbished. On arrival the hotel had notices explaining this & apologising for any inconvenience. Fair enough. However only 2 small lifts, waits were long and you had to travel ‘up’ to go back down to lobby, the lifts were packed from other floors on decent. We decided to take the stairs, we were on the 4th floor, got to 2nd floor there was a gate blocking stairs access any further? We exited on 2nd, sign said this way for stairs to lobby & were led on a labyrinth around the 2nd floor. Found stairwell, only to go 1 flight down & met with gates again? Another tour of the 1st floor to find stairwell that finally led to lobby. It would have been quicker to wait the 10 mins for a chance a the lifts! Appreciate hotel refurbishing, but lifts & stairs were chaos. Finally breakfast was very disappointing, no non diary option, croissants stale, queue for hot drinks machine. Food area was too small for number of people staying.
All staff were friendly and helpful. The cleaners all said good morning & with a smile that felt genuine. The restaurant staff were all very helpful. Location is fantastic, Bond St, Regent Street, Marble etc all within walking distance.

KuwaitWe found a white hair in one of the glasses for water in the cabinet with the kettle. And the elevators were a bit inconvenient (only two in service) but that's expected with the renovations going in. But I don't think I saw this mentioned on the thistle website or booking.
The location of the hotel andthat the staff changed our room because it was noisy really fast and with no fuss. Both our rooms, the noisy one and the quiet one were huge as well, which was one of the reasons I chose the thistle other than the location.

United KingdomRoom was a really long way from the lifts, anyone with mobility issues would struggle. The lift situation is unacceptable, only 2 small lifts and we were on the 7th floor so walking wasn’t an option with luggage. We waited 10 mins to squeeze into a lift on check out. Room was noisy with window open.
Room was clean, small but ok. Location was good.

FinlandI would rate the hotel only 3 stars. Rooms were nice but the breakfast was too crowded and honestly the coffee served in the tables wasn’t good. When we stayed in March 2024, there was a problem with elevators. We had to wait and wait as there was not enough elevators to serve the nbr of guests. The staff could have marked the stairs better, it was not easy to find the stairways and to navigate from lobby to room using stairs.
Breakfast was quite crowded. Coffee was really bad. One had to request vegan milk separately, it was not offered in the buffet. The rooms were spacious, quiet and nice, bathroom clean, hot water in the shower. Bed had a bit hard mattress. Location was excellent! We walked through Hyde Park to Buckingham Palace and on. Easy connection to Elizabeth line (Heathrow). Many buses and subway close. Shopping at Oxford Street. Location 9/10.
