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.).

CanadaThe Wifi was a bit slow at times, but we used Rent n connect so, it wasn't a big problem.
Very close to the major attractions - Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Basilica Cistern, grand bazaar, spice bazaar, etc. A 20mn walk to all the places, since some of it is uphill, it may take longer depending on the individual. The proximity to the Tram station was also an advantage to get to Taksim Square or Galatta Tower. Most importantly, the staff was very friendly - Armaan was very accommodating and helpful. He gave us tips for Bosphorous Cruise, restaurants and getting around the city. The breakfast was also amazing!

ChileThey had run out of clean towels, so we had to use one towel for the xamily.
Excellent location, in the old city, near the blue mosque, with the lowest price I could find in booking.com on that area. The rooms and clean, the consierge was extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was probably the best one we had in Turkey.

United KingdomThe double bed in the room was slightly broken so a part of the mattress was sloppy which was uncomfortable to sleep on. Wasn’t a big issue but the Walls are thin so you can hear people walking up stairs.
Location was perfect. Short walk to The 2 famous mosques. The location is also in a quiet place. The room gets cleaned and the towels changed everyday which was great and they smell amazing too. The breakfast changes slightly everyday but always delicious and enough to get your day started.

PolandUnfortunately we arrived at 7 in the morning, check in is from 14:00. Before I asked if I can leave baggage at the reception and I send message that we will be there early . When taxi brought us from airport to hotel -doors were closed , ring didnt work , we were standing under the hotel 15minutes angry didnt know what to do. Finally one woman saw us from window and asked somebody to open for us.
Bed was so comfortable, location was great !:) Breakfast was also very tasty . We get an appartment instead of room and earlier than check in time ,that was so important for me after travel whole night without sleep.

New ZealandAll together we had a very pleasant stay. Thanks to the three hotel staff present in May 2023! One thing, which was not bothering for us: the last flight of metal stairs to our floor and the breakfast room on the same floor seemed a bit challenging for some guests and would not have been an option for some of my own family members if they had traveled with us. It would be helpful to be mentioned in the hotel description. As many small hotels I have stayed in overseas, if you are worried about a fire breaking out - book in at a bigger hotel and ask for evacuation plans Before you book! Don't expect EXIT signs or smoke alarms in small places. At least I did not see any - and as member of our local volunteer fire brigade, that always plays on my mind.
The location was great for exploring the places we wanted to see. The hotel felt safe with having a key pad at the main entrance. Staff was always friendly and helpful. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful. The "room with seaview" was as per photo on booking.com. it was nice being able to open the windows. Sometimes we were able to see across to the other shores.

United KingdomI would like to have slightly better coffee.
Location was good, nearby the main attractions in the city, however hotel is located down hill so you have to walk up quite steep hill to get to the city and it may cause some problems for older or less fit people. Breakfast was good and the lady serving the food was very friendly however I was expecting a little bit better coffee being in Turkey. Room was good enough to stay few days there. Clean.
