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 StatesI have zero complaints. It was perfect for our needs.
Bespoke accommodation in an historic building within easy walking distance to the rail station, shopping, dining, and most attractions in Edinburgh. Very friendly staff. The room was beautifully decorated with extra plush comfy beds, a Dyson hairdryer, tower fan provided for use on those warm/stuffy nights, and the most beautifully scented & locally made bathroom products.

AustraliaThe directions to the car park were confusing and made check in more challenging. There was a lot of street noise through the night as the hotel is close to trams and the bus depot, however, ear plugs and a sleep mask were provided.
Excellent location, an easy walk to both the old and new town. The room was clean and had all required amenities. The grab and go breakfast was excellent value.

United KingdomThe room had an adjoining door to the neighbouring bedroom, and I could hear the neighbours talking which was disturbing. The property has been renovated recently so I don't see why they did not block up the inner doorway.
Hotel was a short walk from the main tourist route and shops. The room was comfortable and clean. The bathroom was spacious enough to contain a bath, with over-bath shower. The room had tea and coffee-making facilities. Breakfast was cold buffet but you could request cooked eggs and porage.

United KingdomOne day the bed was made, but bathroom not cleaned, told the staff & this got sorted. The only thing we thought was missing & would have liked is a box of tissues in the room.
Very nice hotel with friendly & helpful staff. The room was on the small side, clean & functional, with a lovely view over The Forth. There were a few additional 'nice touches'... a cupboard on the landing which had extra milk, toilet rolls, sewing kits & other useful extras for your stay. You can request a flask of fresh milk rather than use the UHT milk supplied in your room. USB plugs in the bedroom. Free use of city guide books.
