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.).

IndiaThe Craftsmen Hotel in Amsterdam is an absolute gem that perfectly blends charm, comfort, and artistic elegance. From the moment you step in, the warm and friendly staff make you feel right at home, providing exceptional service with a personal touch that elevates the entire experience. The rooms are a masterpiece in themselves, each designed with a unique craftsman’s theme, exuding creativity and attention to detail. Every corner of the hotel reflects the city’s artistic soul, making it more than just a place to stay – it’s an experience. Breakfast at The Craftsmen is simply delightful. The selection is fresh, hearty, and satisfying, with both local and international options. The cozy breakfast area with its large windows adds to the charm, offering lovely views while you indulge in a morning feast. The location is unbeatable – situated right by the canal and just a short walk from major attractions like Dam Square. You’ll find yourself immersed in the beauty of Amsterdam’s historic center, yet the hotel manages to remain a peaceful retreat amidst the hustle and bustle. Overall, The Craftsmen Hotel is an enchanting stay that combines outstanding service, beautiful design, and a prime location – a true reflection of Amsterdam’s timeless allure.

United StatesI loved the bed but it gave my wife back pain. To be fair she sleeps on a 3 inch foam mattress topper. The bed was not excessively firm but not the cloud like essence she prefers.
The location is perfect, 10 minutes from Amsterdam Centraal, close to Jordaan, close to red light district and away from crowds. Lots of food options nearby and a little corner market.

GermanyJust worth to mention: it is a typical Amsterdam house, stairs and elevator provide space for one person at a time.
One of the nicest hotels I have seen recently. Wonderful room with a lot of character, perfectly clean and a lot of special details. Delicious breakfast that was served to the room in my case, but a breakfast room is available for those who prefer. Very nice contact previous to arrival and during check in / check out.

United StatesWe were in the Brewer room which was located in the basement right off the street level. While the room was quaint, it was very dark and we had some unwanted lurkers flash lights through the door window at night. I would stay here again if we could have an upper room.
It was close to the city center, the breakfast as well as cafe next door was very good! They even had gluten free rolls!! It was an easy walk to many different sites and was situated on a beautiful canal.

CanadaRooms are very small. Housekeeping did not come in until after 2 pm the first day - too late since we were up and about since 8 am. The stairway is steep and difficult to maneuver.
The breakfast was excellent with fabulous croissants and freshly squeezed OJ. The Clockmaker's room faced the canal.

United Arab EmiratesThe location was fantastic, walkable to most places. The room itself was full of charm, the bed was comfortable. The kids were excited to sleep in the nook! It’s a quirky layout which we loved. The breakfast was available to have in the room or in the gallery. We had it in our room, it was delivered on time and was fabulous. Fresh pastries and bread were a highlight but there was something for everyone. The staff were friendly and helpful, the sandwich next door made delicious food and they delivered to the hotel. Overall a fantastic stay, would definitely recommend.

United KingdomAll photographs (very good quality) are a bit misleading making impression of a larger space. The Brewer room has a low ceiling (less than 2 m) and in fact is without windows (small window was expected as it is in the basement but it was not possible to open it). The problem is that it was not ventilated well - we had to open doors to the street that was uncomfortable. There is no breakfast buffet ("to reduce the waste") but the need to ask for every single pice of butter or additional portion of food may be embarrassing for some people.
Excellent location and absolutely perfect staff and the service. A very elegant, nicely refurbished building with a creative theme - pleasant from aesthetic point of view. Very comfortable bathroom, good pressure of water, good quality cosmetics. The food for breakfast was of a very good quality but a limited variety (just eggs, ham, cheese and sweets). The choice of bread was limited (no wholemeal "heavy" bread). Coffee was very good.
