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.).

SpainWe had paid for breakfast yet, it was rather lacking. I understand a continental breakfast is something that is offered any many places now yet, a cooked breakfast really should have been offered. On our final day, there were no boiled eggs as the chief had called in ill, does it really take a qualified person to boil an egg?
Well furnished and decorated and exceptionally clean

ColombiaThe lack of elevator even though the stairs are pretty and only three stories for the top floor. The hotel is divided into two or three adjacent buildings, which make you touch the street to get to the bar or have breakfast
The building is beuatiful and shows a good maintenance job. We got a wonderful view from our room on top of the city to the north side. Good location in new town, nonetheless it was a few blocks away from the hot spot of Queen o Princess streets

AustriaWe were 3 people in the room two double beds prepared, not much space left to move around. The breakfast was OK continental...but every day the same, not the smallest variation. Maybe other fruits, of other joghurt...after 4 days the same was a little bit too long.
The room size would be perfekt for two people, the bathroom was very nice big and clean. The bed was very comfortable.

United KingdomThere is not lift in the property (not much they can do as it is a listed building). The staff were great, carried our bags up, but just worth noting.
Great location in the city centre, really close to Stockbridge - there is a lovely farmers market on Sunday's. The room was a good size and very comfortable.

United StatesParking is on the street and the kiosk where you pay wasn’t working so I had some fear of getting a ticket. I would suggest the hotel invest in some parking permits so guests don’t have to worry.
Nira Caledonia has a bed and breakfast feel while behaving as a full service hotel. It’s on a quiet street and a bit of an uphill walk to where the pubs and shops are but it’s also easy to get a taxi. We had 2 rooms for our family and each one had its own personality and was beautifully decorated. Breakfast in the restaurant was excellent and everyone on the staff was very welcoming and accommodating.

United KingdomThe location of my room (6/11) meant it was very noisy inside the hotel at night and morning. I could hear the reception the whole time and there was alot of through traffic. Combine that with a hard mattress (I know that's personal preference) and flat, hard pillows (inexcusable!). I slept pretty badly.
Lovely hotel. Gorgeous breakfast. Small room, but what I expected for "wee single". Lovely sized bathroom and shower. Staff were excellent.
