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 KingdomThe noise outside. Unfortunately not the hotels fault, road works all day and on a busy junction. Windows had to be opened as it was 26° registering on the room thermostat even with the windows open, fan provided which helped a bit thank you. Would stay again but maybe when it cools down.
Loved the location, staff were fantastic, very welcoming and helpful. Very comfy bed.

TurkeyAs my room was on the first floor, I could sometimes hear the voices of the people passing in front of the hotel on the late hours :(
The rooms are exactly like the photos, they are newly decorated and so clean. The staff was very helpful and kind. The location is very convenient. The breakfast was perfect.

United StatesA very minor thing: Bathroom light has no light switch. It turns on/off by movement sensor and it takes to long too long to turn off.
Great location, good breakfast, friendly staff. Room is above pub, but noise is minimal and closes at 11:00 promptly.

United KingdomOnly thing we didn’t like was the noise from the bar (Very loud quiz competing with the music that was on). It did stop at 11pm, but as we were tired we retired to our room at about 8.30 so it did spoil our relaxation. Would definitely go again but would ask for a higher floor.
Price was lower than I thought it should have been given the room and facilities that we had. Excellent staff and excellent accommodation and breakfast!

United KingdomThe check-out detailed on booking was 11am, but upon arrival was informed it is now 10.30am, which was disappointing. The breakfast is small - 1 of everything wouldn't be filling for an average person. You have to pay an extra £3 if you want another key card so have to share between the two of you and the electricity is tied to the key card. This seems very unreasonable - all parties should be able to gain access to the room they have paid for. It's very dusty under the bed (discovered after dropping a hair bobble) which was a bit off putting. The doors have to be slammed to shut which means you hear most movement of other guests - at whatever time they come back or move around!
The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was generally clean, spacious, and comfortable. The food was good and had big portions. There was a fan and air conditioning in the rooms which were much appreciated. Plenty of tea and coffee in the room.
