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.).

Saudi ArabiaIt advertises itself as a hotel but it isn't. It's a kitchen-bar with rooms. The doors also don't have any lock. The chain lock was broken in my room and they offered me another room but that one didn't have a lock at all. The location was only an issue because I didn't own a car and the buses are never on time, though that's no fault of the hotel. Overall, I think I was mainly shocked because I didn't expect to be sleeping in a bar kitchen type of building.
Breakfast was great and so were the lunch/dinner options. Staff was really friendly and understanding. The room's were clean and comfy.

United KingdomOur room was at the top of the inn so wat too many steps to climb with suit cases. The fact that we were so high up also meant that the shower took too long to reach an acceptable temerature.
The staff were extremely accomodating and friendly.

United KingdomA bit of a struggle getting luggage to room through narrow and twisting corridors with many short flights of steps - only to be expected in a charming old inn of this kind. But I didn't ask for help, and I feel sure the staff would have helped if I had done so...
Ambience - very helpful staff - good food served with perfect timing, prompt but not hurried - lots of power points to plug in chargers etc. in the room.

United KingdomThe rooms were quite small. The bed was quite small for 2 people. The room had an upstairs which was cool when you first come in to discover it. But when you get to the top of the stairs the toilet is directly at the top. There is no door to the toilet so if your with your partner they can hear you going to the loo which for some people can also make it hard to go to the loo knowing your partner is just downstairs and can hear you.
It most certainly quirky. It had a really lovely wonky cottage kind of vibe which I found really fun. The staff were friendly and the breakfast in the morning was really well done.

United KingdomThe door to our room (Room 11) made a knock knock knocking noise when guests upstairs moved around. (I recorded it as it was so odd and disturbing!) We thought at first that someone was actually knocking on our door! I informed Kirsty the next morning and she was going to look into it with housekeeping.
The staff were particularly friendly - Katy, Charlie, Georgie and Kirsty.
