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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 Kingdomshower. The shower head is too high, isn't adjustable & direction misses you completely.
Great stay as always! This time we had a bigger room which was great. We've stayed here many times & have had no issues so it was nice to have a slightly bigger room. Staff are super friendly & helpful which is why we try & stay here everytime we visit. Perfect location next to Paddington, Tube, bars & restaurants. Nice clean room. Coffee & tea facilities. Hairdryer. Fan. Plenty of wardrobe space. No lift, wasn't an issue for us & they do offer to carry your bags should you require help, so that's good.

United StatesNoise. can hear underground but stayed here before so came handy to have earplugs. I was on ground floor nearest to front door so was a little noiser from hotel guests standing and speaking load outside door and doorbell ringing . Maybe post signs about being courteous when coming in late to not talk loud in hallways and being quiet. Tv minimal channels . That being said i would stay here again. Met my needs
Convenience to paddington station. Compared to other highpriced hotels for 1 night . Rooms updated since last time which was nice . So many eatery to choose from. Room service was an addition as well from last time which was good if you didnt want to leave room.

Great location , close to Paddington Station and Heathrow express. Beds were comfortable. Staff was very pleasant and help full. Especially Buddha who worked the 7PM-7 AM shifts. Buddha took the time to answer our questions and showed a genuine interest in making sure we enjoyed our time while staying at the Hotel.

Costa RicaRooms are small. In some rooms the bathroom is bit uncomfortable. However that's pretty common in London.
Location is excellent, right next to the Paddington station. Restaurants and souvenir shops right next to the hotel. You can leave your bags at any time if you arrive before your check in. Room was clean and nice and staff was very nice, friendly and eager to help.
