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.).

The location of the hotel is perfect. It is located right between the two main palaces. Perfect for a first time in Seoul. The staff is very welcoming and helpful. There is free laundry available

SingaporeLaundry room was hot and stuffy. Lift landing area air-conditioning was available but turned off after sometime, making the area hot and stuffy. No shower screen causing water to splash everywhere after showering. No place to hang towel or clothes in the WC cubicle.
Location was good. Next to Insadong street and near to Anguk Station. Short taxi ride to Myeongdong shopping street. Room was spacious and clean.

Room was huge for the price we paid, so considering it was Seoul and we planned to do a ton of shopping - super worth it! Location was excellent and most places were within 30mins by either bus or train.

Location, location, location! Great room, very large and with everything you might need as travelers. A super comfy bed, exceptionally clean and amazing staff! Leif and Stephen were so friendly and helpful as were all the staff members. If you are going to stay in Seoul - this is the place - 5 minutes to the nearest subway, convenience stores, grocery stores, restaurants and all the best of Insadong, but tucked away in a very quiet corner. Just a fabulous stay.

MalaysiaThe housekeeping missed out to refill mineral waters and tissue in our room. But i was solved quickly once we requested.
The location is very good. Very centrally located if you are planning to go Myeongdong area, Gyeobukgong Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village, Dongdaemun area. All these area are within 10-15 mins subway or taxi ride. A lot of eateries nearby. The room is spacious for 2 adults & 3 young kids (below 6 years old). The futon bed was huge enough to fit 3 little kids. Overall, the room is clean and spacious and we had a great stay.

United StatesCafe was closed while we were there so had to sort out every breakfast offsite. AC had a blue light that made it bright in the room overnight, but turning it off made the room very stuffy.
Well located between two palaces and very clean. Toiletries restocked daily as needed without ever asking me which was a nice touch.

Clean comfortable room with a very cosy feel. The bathroom was generous and comfortable. We found the washing/ drying facilities really handy and easy to use.
