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.).

IrelandThe staff was amazing except a waiter in my first breakfast at the hotel. I took a seat on a table by myself as it was my first time there and there was no one to welcome me at the entrance and he was so rude to ask me to stand up and wait outside the restaurant till someone could check my room number. It was not nice at all and I was so ashamed.
The location is perfect, next to all the attractions, you can do it all on foot if you like it. The hotel is clean, pleasant and the room is very nice.

United KingdomWe've been staying at Malmaison for many years. It's always been our favourite place in Birmingham. Unfortunately, every time we go more amenities have been removed from the rooms. It sounds like a petty list, but we've been used to better at this hotel and it seems they now charge more but provide less... No complimentary biscuits any more. No more robes or slippers. All the lovely bathroom products have been removed. No drawers (that's a strange one!). And NO FRIDGE! Just a big hole where it used to be. What is that about? Why remove the fridge? Disappointing. We will probably try somewhere else next time.
Lovely big rooms. Super comfy bed. Great breakfasts. Wonderful staff. Nice bar area.

United Kingdomair con was not great and requested a fan but night staff were unable to locate one no bluetooth link to the tele to play music. had 2 members of staff and 2 managers come in and all did exactly the same thing when i had explained it wasnt working. not the end of the world but wernt able to change the TV or provide music doc as the maintenance team had finished for the day. spa is closed on a tuesday which was hidden away in the description. its there but not prominent so was very disappointed when i was told this when checking in. I was asked by the night duty manager to go to the reception when checking out to either offer a refund or complimentary stay at a later date to find this hadnt been passed on to the day shift and was informed by the checkin staff member that no issues had been reported regading my room so couldnbt do anything about it.
superb room with fantastic views of the city centre. really comfy bed that was big enough for a family of 5 to sleep in. lounge area is a great space for entertaining and seems silly but the black out blinds / curtains were spot on.

United KingdomThe view- this room was situated at the side of the building. I could see directly into another apartment building, therefore, not an inspiring view.
The rooms with all its amenities exceeded expectations- I was impressed by the robes, shower cap and dry cleaning provisions. You literally can turn up at this hotel with your clothes and some moisturiser and you are good to go. The bed was large and comfortable. We did not have breakfast to be able to comment, however, the Strarbuck's situated in reception is a nice touch.
