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.).

CanadaIt was a bit longer walk from the train station than we realized.
Lovely large room and best bathroom of our trip. Beds were comfortable, everything was clean and we were right next door to a sunny dining room. We enjoyed relaxing in the bow window. Nice to have fridge, microwave and a great coffee maker.

United KingdomShower curtain held up using extending rail rather than one attached to the wall - had a tendency to fall down. Plug missing from sink.
Generous buffet breakfast. A little way out of the city centre but walkable in less than 10 mins from Haymarket station, 15-20 mins to Princes Street.

IrelandThe bedroom was quite noisy with some sort of heating device beside it that seemed to ramp up at night so they might need to look at this for light sleepers. But when I voiced this we were moved so they were quite helpful.
Check in system with the keys was great for easy access. Initially was in a bedroom that was quite noisy at night but when I voiced my concerns. They moved us to a different room that was much better. Andreas and Rachel the staff member was great in this department.

United KingdomI was freezing for one of the nights as the bedding isn't very good to say it was Edinburgh in the winter. Didn't see any staff at all while we were there. The room backed on to a patio but we couldn't get the doors to open.
Price was great for 4 of us staying, and we were a group of friends so didn't mind staying in the same room. Lots of room between us, and the bathroom was fine.

Cool place. Near tourist zones by bus and even walking. There's a grosery store nearby. Check in and out are contactless which was good because I arrived 2am because airplane delay.

UkraineThe only negative for me was that the furniture was a little old. I could not open the window, because it turned out to be very old and inconvenient to use. Various sounds were also very audible, so I advise you to work on noise insulation.
In general, I really liked staying at the hotel. Convenient location, easy to get keys and good communication with me as a guest on the app. I liked the room, it is big enough, the bathroom and bed are comfortable. Thanks for the coffee and sweets.

Malaysia1- I checked in twice and on the first day of each stay the housekeeping missed to tidy up my room and had to remind the receptionst. 2- There were road constructions and therefore blockage, which caused me massive inconvenience regarding the taxi booking; I had to carry my heavy suitcases with me in the street until I find a good place for taxi pickup location. 3- They sent me a discount code, which did not work for rebooking and I did not receive their on time support to solve this issue (only when I finished rebooking!).
I thank them for the support I received from the cleaning staff and the digital receptionist during my stay and for helping my luggage for extra hours when I checked out/before checking in.
