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.).

ItalySecluded location in a residential neighborhood up on a hill and a very limited list of breakfast options for room service. Getting to the hotel required uphill hike and it’s away from all the main tourist attractions. The hotel was very quiet and we didn’t see even one fellow traveler. One almost felt like a recluse on retreat. For breakfast, we got croissants, rusks, cookies, jam and butter, coffees, milks, water and juices on a tray delivered at the specified time. We were rather surprised by such unusual practice at a four-star hotel.
The spacious apartment comes with a living room and a full kitchen. Very clean. Cheerful and responsive staff.

IrelandWe are very grateful for our stay at this apartment. The kitchen was fully equipped, the air conditioning was perfect and relaxing, and the balcony had an amazing view of the city. Its convenient proximity to the city centre was an added bonus. This experience exceeded my expectations.

United Arab EmiratesIf you are relying on public transport, not the best location. It's a 20-30 minute walk from the ferry and train station, with a portion of it being uphill, which was miserable in the September heat.
The art theme of the hotel was a welcomed novelty, and for the price, was great. We liked the art chosen, and it made for a fun overnight experience

ItalyThe distance from town is a bit far and up a hill - but depends on the walk. Take the longer path and its easier.
Clean room, attentive caring staff and adequate amenities. No room service, but a kitchen in the room.

NetherlandsLocation wasn't as great as we thought, as it's quite a climb to get back to the room after visiting the center, so travel by car if you have trouble with stairs and hills. There's only a sheer curtain, and although the room is not easy to see into, there are some rooftop terraces that may be able to with some effort. It also means the room got very light in the morning and we had clear flashes from a thunder storm in our bed. Bed is also very hard and pillows very flat, although I believe that's a thing throughout Sicily because we haven't had any fluffy pillows so far (in 4 different hotels).
Very nice, large and clean room with key entrance to both the outside door and inside. Reception is open from 7.30am until around 9pm The rain shower has good water pressure and the bathroom is very hygienic. Balcony is nice and private and airconditioning works great without being too loud. Breakfast in the room is also a nice feature which felt like a bit of a luxury. There's also a pool table and coffee machine and drink dispenser (paid) on the second floor, and a public terrace.

United StatesIt was a bit far to get food, but probably because many (almost all) restaurants were closed because of the catholic holiday. Because of the holiday, there was a big parade going on at night, so many cars racing in the street next to the hotel, so it was a bit loud, but it died down fast enough for us to fall asleep.
The location should be on the quieter side of the city, that probably needs a taxi to arrive there. Hotel can help arrange the taxi (the fare to train station should be around 15 euros with some pieces of luggages). There is a nice sitting room on level 2, with a pool table and a piano inside, a balcony outside. Because we arrived on a catholic holiday, we ended up spending most of the day in the sitting room. There are many art pieces in the hotel, which is quite aesthetic. The room has a proper kitchen with cooking amenities and bowls available, but we didn't cook haha.
