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 StatesThere was no elevator and the property was on the second floor. Outside of the building and the alley did not look good.
The room and the bathroom were clean. Bed and pillows were comfortable. The AC worked well. The location was great.

New ZealandThe entrance to this place is down a dirty and dark alley. The building is run down and it has NO LIFT. There was an old guy waiting for us who insisted on lifting our suitcase up the stairs, it did not look safe for him.
The location of this hotel is great to access Via Etnea. Communication with the person that runs the place was good.

Czech RepublicAccess to the house, but we counted on the fact that it is an old house. For us it had a charm, so we do not complain about anything.
A pleasant, spacious apartment in the heart of a bustling city, bustling until the morning. The charm of true Sicily.Plus - providing a taxi to the airport for a very early flight.

Georgiathe main entrance of the hotel was very bad, as it was placed on very dirty street. we hardly recognize that it was entrance and practically it was full of carbage. suggest hotel should take care of this area.
location in general was good but very noisy as we stay on weekend and too many people outside till late night and street cleaning cars also were working all the night. staff was friendly but breakfast was very bad as it include only one croissant and cup of coffee and we needed to go to some Cafe in the street. rooms were clean and quite big.

Totally Loved the breakfast at the patisserie/cafe just across the road the pastries couldn't be any fresher than that, especially the traditional Brioche which I has still warm and fragrant from the oven!!... and the Granita is one of the best I had!

ItalyWe booked a superior room with the expectation of a balcony facing the Main Street, but there was no balcony, only a very tall window but no possibility to go outside of the room. When a guest speaks in the corridor or another room, you can hear everything
The B&B is located at second floor of an old building facing on Via Etnea in Catania city center. There is no elevator and the entrance is from a side street, very narrow and dirty. When entering the palace the expectations drop due to the dirty and old stairs. When entering the B&B things get definitely better because of the renewed ambients. Rooms are fairly clean and wide. The solution was good for the price we spent (70€)
