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.).

HungaryThe room I stayed in, is really at a “weird” corner of the rooftop-floor… I had not much baggage but it was still not that easy to access it, using a separate stairway. Another problem was with the heating: although the air-conditioner made my room very warm (what I liked), the machine was quite noisy. But once I stopped it, the room suddenly became cold… So, I had to turn it on again - I had not much sleep!
I liked that this place to stay is in the middle of the city centre, but it was not noisy at all. Loved the short distance between its location and the airport, too - with a bus stop closeby, just in front of the hotel! The breakfast was nice and I’m happy that they let me to take some with myself, as I had a early check-out. My room was also nice and comfy.

AlbaniaThe wifi is very bad, the connection is very poor or it does not work at all. The facilities are generally quite old and need renovation. The shower head was broken. The room was quite spacious, but it would not get very warm making it slightly uncomfortable during cold weather.
The location is excellent, the staff were very kind and helpful and speak good english. Breakfast was acceptable, however it could have more variety. The room was quite spacious..

GreeceThe room and the breakfast room were not clean in some places (exaple: toilet seat, table cloth and chairs in breakfast) Hackers used the hotel's profile in Booking app and requested by card number etc. I believed them, since it was sent through Booking app, and now I need to cancel my card.
Good location. Friendly and helpful staff.

LithuaniaThe hotel looks with poor maintainance, not everything is working or looking how it should. Even hard to find working socket to charge the phone. Room card usually not working from the first time.
The staff was nice and helpful. The hotel is in good location, close to the park and 900m from the main square. I like the lobby with old furniture and wall paintings. The most beautiful thing is view from balcony to volcano. For short stay is ok, it's not expensive.

Pillows where too high so we slept without them which wasn't ideal as well. The biggest plus was breakfast with fresh red orange juice and tasty coffee. Hosts were very friendly.

NetherlandsThe place was really loud. I could hear every door slamming and there were some ladies there that were talking extremely loud from 7 AM. The breakfast was included in the room price, but, unfortunately it was a bit poor in choices.
The place was nice, decorated in an Italian way. The hotel is in the Centre, very easy to go everywhere. The receptionists were very helpful and nice.
