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.).

New ZealandThe only thing is the slippery bathrooms. I recommend getting an extra towel and using as a bathmat. once wet, the bathroom floors are treacherous. I did wonder if it was very full if we'd sleep as well. We were opposite the bathrooms and could hear the doors opening and shutting...so I'd that went all night it could be hard.
We arrived hot and bothered after walking from the Viking Line terminal.( It's a short walk and fine for able bodied people (we are 50+ and not fit) but we'd already had a long day and it was 27⁰Celsius). The concierge was lovely and kind. The rooms have high ceilings, kind of old-fashioned but very clean. we had twin beds which we didn't mind. they were very comfortable and I slept the best I have since we've been in Europe. There is a small shared kitchenette and balcony. There are beautiful views and it's cool (we are here in early September when the days were 26 degrees celsius). We were fortunate because hardly anyone seemed to be there. I was worried because a very loud wedding party had started their reception nearby and I thought I wouldn't sleep. But the soundproofing was excellent and we could hardly hear them once we shut the window. The breakfast is fabulous and we loved our stay. I read other reviews criticising this hostel, but it is shared facilities/a hostel so I think their expectations were too high.

United KingdomSingle bed is smaller than average size but enough.
As I was taking Viking line to Helsinki, the hotel is very close to the terminal. Very good city view from the hotel. It's a bit distance away from the old town and city centre. But it makes quiet and cozy in the area. Public transportation to the city centre is convenient. Breakfast is very good.

AustraliaThe hotel has a number of buildings, built at different times. I found the levels a bit confusing to navigate.
It was different - it has an interesting history and the staff were delightfully caring. It’s also well located for the Viking Ferry Terminal.

United KingdomThe hotel is a former hospital, and the hotel rooms and corridors haven't been able to shake that sterile ambience. If you enter via reception, the building is a confusing maze of staircases and corridors. Once you've been there a day, you'll realise that it's so much easier to enter the building via the side entrance by the restaurant where breakfast is served.
Let's start with the most important thing: that breakfast! This was quite simply the best breakfast that I had during my time in Sweden and Finland and will set you up so well for the day that you won't need to eat again until the evening. The buffet's variety would cater for virtually all tastes and dietary limitations/preferences and the quality of the ingredients was outstanding. Mini meatballs (this is, after all, Sweden, but the meatballs are clearly not from IKEA)!!! Smoked salmon, excellent quality cold meats and cheese, fruit (including delicious local strawberries, ripened in over 18 hours of midsummer daylight), yoghurts, eggs, salad and pickled vegetables, plenty of choice in terms of bread and crispbread, as well as a selection of pastries. BRAVO!!! The hotel's location is also excellent, on a cliff overlooking the water, the Viking line terminal and the Gröna Lund amusement park on Djurgården island. It's an easy ride on the 53 bus from Stockholm Central railway station, from where it's less than a 5 minute walk (albeit up a rather unwelcome sharp incline). From the hotel it's an easy walk into neighbouring suburbs, including fashionable Södermalm. You can also take a 20 minute scenic stroll down to Slussen, which is a transport hub for Metro, buses and ferries (but probably worth taking the bus back unless you're fit as it's a bit of an uphill hike). By Stockholm standards, the hotel is well priced, and absolutely fabulous value for money when you factor in the breakfast. The unusually polygonal Ersta Kyrka (church) on the same site is an absolutely lovely, peaceful spot that's well worth a visit. The rooms are spotless and spacious - if soulless - and the black out curtains are so effective that you'll get a good night's sleep even in midsummer when the sun barely sets (a major consideration in the Scandinavian summer if you're light sensitive).

United KingdomThe room was basic, like a dorm, breakfast was quite frankly odd. Prinsesstårta anyone? Also super confusing as there were conferences on at the same time, it was quite unclear where to go and very little seating as the delegates arrived. Very much an event spot I think, but we rolled with it and it was the perfect location for the area we wanted. Not entirely sure I would stay again, if you're looking for a hotel experience, this isn't it. But it was fun.
Great views, lovely location, gorgeous building. Super helpful staff, who stored our bags etc. Shared shower rooms and toilets which to be fair, were immaculately clean.
