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.).

United KingdomThere was only one lift, which was used by guests and cleaning staff alike, so the wait was often extremely long. When your room was on the 8th floor taking the stairs wasn’t really an option!

United KingdomRoom was lovely, but smaller than expected. It didn’t help that the bed base took up extra unnecessary floor space (as the mattress was much smaller), but it was at narrow end of building. L’Occitane bathroom products (lovely), but wrong products in bottles (not so lovely putting body lotion on hair instead of conditioner!).
Great location. Walkable to bars, restaurants, shops & tourist attractions. Nice hotel bar. Had breakfast one day, due to a $20 credit applied, which was nice. Staff very helpful. Quiet air con. Close to train station for travel to airport for a few dollars.

United KingdomUnfortunately the lift broke during our stay which was pretty inconvenient but the staff did their very best to assist in that period.
The staff were great. Really helpful, kind & just nice. It felt like quite a small hotel where you knew each other more than usually happens in hotels. Stayed here for the Marathon. Convenient for Boston Common, which was only walking distance.

AustraliaCons: a little pricey without discounted price and breakfast was a little disappointing, so went elsewhere for breakfast in the morning. Gym was pointless (1 bike and tiny set of weights). Be careful of your shins on edge of the bedz also in the dark 😆
Pros: staff were friendly and extremely comfy beds, nice l'occtaine shower gels and modern bathroom. Lovely hotel situated in fantastic location.
