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.).

JapanNothing really. The price is high but understandable considering the location.
The location was very accesible from any sightseeing location nearby. All the places were walkable distance. We arrived in the midnight due to the delay of our flight, even though the reservation was canceled by the property, the staff tried to act accordingly for us stay the night.

LatviaThe value for the offered service was too high. Bed was narrow for 2 people to sleep 3 nights. In the pictures it was showed wider. In the description it was not mentioned the size of the bed. Elevator worked only one. VW you need to flash 3x to get everything away. Shower was weak.
Located close to the Trafalgar Square. Easy to reach from airport till Victoria station. Personell was helpful. Clean. Breakfast was classical UK, but there were also some other choices.

PortugalOne of the guests was lactose intolerant, and the breakfast did not have many lactose free products. Upon request was possible to have scrambled eggs lactose free, but the breakfast staff was not the most friendly in providing alternatives.
Thristle Trafalgar is very well located, very close to Trafalgar square and restaurants. The rooms are very big, perfect for the stay. The staff was very friendly, allowing us to have a later checkout without additional costs.

United KingdomBreakfast was ok but the orange juice was poor and the fried eggs had been standing around for a long time and were hard. The worst bit was that the floor was covered in crumbs. The tables were clean but we saw that when the customers left all the crumbs were swept on to the floor and not cleared up.
Location was brilliant and quiet. Room, bed and en suite very good. Staff were excellent, bright, cheery and helpful.

SwitzerlandI expected a bit more from the Standard Twin Room. It was dark, stuffy and cold many times in the room. There was hair in the bathtub upon arrival and hair on the mugs in the room - not cool. For a four star hotel and the price paid, I expected much more.
No doubt the location is the main plus here. Just betweeen Trafalgar Square and Soho and Covent Garden and near Picadilly Circus, yet not a loud street. Good breakfast, comfortable beds, reasonable stay.
