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 evening staff really let the service down, we were going to a concert and a button to hold my dress up had come off, I called room service asking if they had a spare sewing kit. I was told it was on it's way. 25 mins later I had to end up going to the desk with the back of my dress open asking for the sewing kit no one seemed to know what I was talking about. No apology they just said someone had to go downstairs to find a kit. I had to sew this on in the car because we were now running late for the show. Not great.
Really friendly day staff on arrival, amazing man in the bar made us cocktails, We had a tasty lunch in the hotel. Spa was so nice and they fit us in for some fantastic treatments. Hotel room was lovely and clean. Picture booth and the pictures was a treat! Left my watch in my spa robe, it was found and I was able to collect the next day! Brilliant.

IrelandLoved the hotel - only minor mention, the pool is VERY shallow, nicely decorated though. Can get very busy, I don't think there are children's hours. Nice space all the same
An eclectic decor, fabulous!!! Only a few mins walk to Holborn underground station, so easy access all over London. Plenty of restaurants close by, some shops too. Visually great fun, pop-art cushions adorn the spacious seating in the bar/lounge, mood lighting as evening closes in...a couple of retro gaming machines and plenty to stimulate the visual senses Plenty of choice at breakfast. Lunch was adjusted to suit gluten free request - which I did well in advance of arrival I booked the afternoon tea (with a Mexican twist), which I requested gluten free, I was not disappointed! It was fabulous, absolutely loads, some of which I got boxed-up and brought up to my room - highly recommend... I had spa treatments, with Ishga (Scottish seaweed spa products) good therapist Sonas? (sorry mislaid her name). All the staff I conversed with friendly and helpful...

IrelandIt was noisy, not the hotel itself, we didn't hear noise from the bars but as it is on a busy road we were woken by passing traffic and sirens during the night, it is the only negative about the hotel.
Excellent location, so close to Holborn tube station which is on the Picadilly and Central lines. Hotel is very 'cool,' lovely atmosphere. Room was spacious and very clean, couldn't fault it.

United StatesI chose what I recall was labeled the "supreme" king bed room. But the room was a bit smaller than I anticipated. Not bad but given the label they set my expectations higher. Also I would say the staff kinda made me feel invisible. They never seemed to smile or acknowledge you in passing. Service was fine when I asked for assistance. Just a bit weird that they seemed to not to smile or make eye contact unless prompted.
Great location
