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.).

Portugalall is very tight, even the bedrooms. It would work for a solo traveler, not so much for a couple with their luggage. It is not well insulated as you can hear everything from the room next door..
It is a very original idea and a bucket list kind of experience. Mostly it is a convenient and cheap solution if you’re arriving late or if you have an early flight. The shared bathrooms were clean and we couldn’t hear the planes though, despite being in the airport.

HungaryI couldn’t get any fresh air in the room as the windows can’t be opened and it didn’t seem to have any kind of aircon. It can be a problem on hotter days.
Staying in a Jumbo is a special experience fir everyone who is interesred in planes. It’s also close to Terminal 4 with frequent shuttle buses at a nearby stop. The 3-bed room itself was big enough and the bed was also good (not too soft). The shared bathroom is small, but completely adequate and there are several. The breakfast is very simple, but enough to get your day started.

GreeceIt's easy to just take care of you! Nothing else to think about. Basic breakfast but it's ok. 😊
I like that it's simple and that you are pretty much selfgoing there. Good enough for one night. The transfer connection to Arland works great! I will stay there again. This was my second time.

SwitzerlandAfter a few years, some fixtures are worn out. They need to be fixed, repaired, or cleaned. The carpet in our room stinks and the shower's curtain is missing pieces. The terrace (wings of the plane) is nice to sit and enjoy the view or a cup of coffee, yet the rubber floor and other things need maintenance.
The location is perfect, and yes, the idea of transforming a Jumbo into a hotel is brillant. The staff are kind and professional. The breakfast is almost perfect. And the transportation between the hotel and terminals was the best and practical.

United KingdomNothing not to like. Though take an eye mask as the sun comes through the cockpit window from sunrise.
We just loved it - we booked the cockpit. Only downside was we couldn’t get out on the terrace for the cockpit area as the door was locked.

United KingdomThe aircraft is falling to bits and is very neglected with paint falling off, broken benches on the wing and most of the rubber anti-slipface on the wing has come away and looks very grubby and untidy. Poor aircraft needs a really good scrub and repaint as its in very poor condition in parts and its so sad to see it in such a state.
The beds were super comfortable. Everything was basic but clean. Really close to Arlanda airport and the free Alfa buses are very frequent which was brilliant. It was wonderful to be able to stay on an aircraft of this size. Its so very special to see it put to good use not just scrapped and thrown away.

ItalyRooms have not an efficient air-recycling system: bad smell was stagnant in my room at check-in (I was alone in it, hence no shoes present in the room at that moment). Of course, windows cannot be opened, being it a plane. Wifi not working (really important to me, since my personal data was not working, hence I was stuck with no internet available). Renovation needed.
Best idea ever! An hostel inside of a plane, just 2-4 mins by a (free) bus from terminals 2&3 and 4&5. Really clean, easy check-in. The bathrooms include everything, so you do not have to go to WC and then shower, because you have a private single-bathroom all for yourself! Comfortable beds (already prepared), free towels.

AustraliaGreat location at the airport, with free shuttle bus to and from the terminal. The jumbo plane was awesome, really enjoyed the novelty. It was cold outside when I was there but warm enough inside the plane. There are a few tables outside that would be nice in warmer weather. There was a staff person at reception when I arrived to check in.

United KingdomNo complaints
Close to the airport, with the added bonus that this is actually a plane. I'd wanted to stay here for a long time and while I didn't get to see the cockpit this was a bucket list item come true. The room was nice, had a tv and towels and the bathrooms in the hall were clean and lovely. there is a shared living room/cafeteria with a vending machine, free water and a free breakfast in the morning.

SwedenNothing to complain about. Booked the cheapest 4-bed female dorm room. Got what I asked for with added bonus of making a cool new acquaintance for a day. If I were to make suggestions for improvement, a sensor light system in the far end bathroom that didn't switch off after 20 seconds while showering (little tricky re-activating the light with movement when tucked inside the shower curtain). But no big drama since the shower was hot & good pressure so outweighed that small negative. And for the love of the integrity of the airplane & visitor appeal - an fresh exterior coat of paint for a spruce up. Looked a bit sadder on the outside upon approach since my first 2020 stay yet deserves a wow factor as it's such a memorable treat to stay in an airplane!
The location, the ease & frequency to catch the bus, the fact it was a walkable distance to the airport, train to Stockholm & car rental, the super helpful friendly staff, the fact you get what you asked for plus a cool quirk factor (handy clean comfortable accommodation that served basic needs for a low price in a memorable real life plane). I really enjoyed my repeat visit. Thank you.
