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.).

TurkeyUnfortunately, on the second day when we woke up, there was a large black leech in the bathroom :( and there were bugs in the room. Since it was our check-out day, we left. The room's window faced a dark void with trash, and the view was bad. There was no mirror inside the room, and although there was a small mirror in the bathroom, the bathroom was small and lacked any shelves or places to put our belongings.
The staff were friendly and gave us a room before the check-in time. The gentleman at the reception assigned us a room on the first floor because we had luggage and there was no elevator. The room was large and spacious. The location was excellent, just a 5-minute walk from the train station and also a 5-minute walk from the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.

CanadaWorst part was no elevators - you had to carry your luggage up the stairs. We came in around 3 and there was only a lady at the front desk - support staff gone for the day. So no help.
The property is located in a great place. Only a 7 minute walk from the train station and within 10 minute walk to any where.

United KingdomBeds were rock solid, really not comfortable at all. There was one stick thin pillow, again, not comfortable at all. No lift so if you travel with a big suitcase, expect to drag it up stairs
Helpful staff, showed us a map and good sites to see on arrival. Great location for all sites, good walking distance. Decent sized bathroom with room to shower. Could leave luggage on checkout day.

United StatesThe shower was the tiniest shower I've ever used, and I'm even including showering in RV campers. Additionally, the addition of the rain shower feature would be nice in a normal-sized shower, but the apparatus protruded from the shower wall in an already cramped shower, so that when trying to bathe, a person keeps accidentally bumping into the lever and changing the water temperature! It was a horrible design and we are small people, so I can't imagine how a larger person would cope. One other complaint I have is the mattress. It was not as hard as other mattresses I unfortunately experienced in Italy, but it had a pretty extreme depression in the mattress that made my back ache after sleeping in it. The mattress really needs to be replaced.
This hotel was super convenient to the train station and an easy walk from many of the main attractions in Florence. We also loved the restaurant adjacent to the hotel. The staff was very friendly and accommodating--we were able to check in early and leave our bags after we checked out. We also felt very secure with the monitored door and the code required after hours. Our room was large and the bathroom was also large, especially compared to other hotels in Italy.

GreeceI wish there was a second mirror in the room for saving time. One person could make use of the mirror in the toilet, and the other one could make use of the mirror in the room for time-saving reasons.
I loved the staff. The young girl with the eyeglasses at the reception had a heartwarming welcome for us and was more than willing to give us any information needed. She was really hospitable and made us feel at home. The hotel was perfectly located at the center of Florence. It was a 5 minute walk from the central train station and 5-6 minutes from the Duomo Cathedral on foot. Everything was around. It was clean and neat.
