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.).

GermanyThe rooms could feel a little "tight" for some guests. I myself (1.8m and 110kg) was pretty uncomfortable going to the bathroom or toilet, the space is very small.
Very good location, the Botel is just a stones throw away to the center of the city, reachable on foot. Nicely decorated, marine motives everywhere. Bed was small, but comfortable. Breakfast options were basic, but good, fresh fruit and juices everyday, good coffee. Nice lounge in the main area. Very calm surroundings.

DenmarkWell since it is a boatel there was no good ventilation to the room. Nothing suffocating but still something to think about. The breakfast was a little disappointing. Most of the food was burnt or not enough for everyone.
Close to central station. And it was an experience to stay in a boatel. The staff was nice.

SingaporeThe room was slightly smaller than expected. I would have wished I had gotten the room opposite the platform so I could have my window open.
I like the hospitality of the host and we had great chat. The room was really clean. Bed was comfy and the heater and shower works fine.

United KingdomThe only thing I didn't like was the size of the towels were very small but it was ok.
I loved the stay on the boat! The host, Guillermo, was so welcoming and accommodating. He made sure I had everything I needed. I loved that you could get small snacks, water, coffee and tea whenever you wanted and thought that was a great touch. The value for money was the best you can find in Amsterdam - private room and bathroom for a great price. The location was also very central. I would highly recommend this place.

DenmarkThe beds are a bit small and a bit too hard. It would have been nice to have the possibility to open a window to let some fresh air in, but the again, as it's on a boat, that often isn't a possibility.
Really nice and cozy environment. Not big rooms, but it was expected as it's on a boat. Nice sitting area were we could sit in the evening and relax, free coffee/the/water. Alex, our host was nice and always around. You had all you needed in the small rooms including fine toilet and bathroom facilities. Breakfast was good.
