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.).

IndiaAll the lights are controlled by an ipad in the room and the one provided in our room was not working. Complained at the front desk but no resolution was provided. Check the devices before assigning a room. The app does not login on most devices. Have to take a cab or public transport to visit the tourist places. No food places nearby.
The rooms were like a studio apartment. Good for 2-3 nights stay. Clean and easy check-in and check-out. There was availability to order food downstairs.

United StatesThe room we were in was incredibly small. The bed spanned the width of the room and was placed against the window and only allowed entrance from one side. As a couple this meant that if you wanted to get up in the middle of the night you had to crawl over or wake your companion. The bathroom was a shower - toilet combo unit (like on a boat/ship) which is efficient but didn’t feel that private. Ultimately, I think this room is perfect for a solo traveler but not necessarily great for a couple, even for those who are incredibly close.
The location was great and the check in process was smooth. We found parking right outside though it is quite limited. The downstairs bar area was lively and I liked the living room area for working and reading. The room had everything you needed and I liked the TV interface. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room had everything you needed to work, sleep, and dress for the day.

United KingdomCouldn’t find a local grocery store in the area but that’s not a major problem.
Once I figured out which exit to take at L’Enfant Plaza Metro (Exit 2) it took only three minutes to walk to the station. It’s the best connected station on the network. National Mall is a 7 minute walk away. There’s a Starbucks about a 4 minute walk away if you don’t fancy the hotel breakfast. 13 minute walk away to The Wharf where there is a decent selection of restaurants. Gym was really well equipped. Room was comfortable, clean and shower was good.

Hong KongA tiny story, there is 2 stuff told me i can take the train back to bus terminal instead of walking or take taxi.. turns out the train have a lunch break. The time table said it will stop at 10:00-13:00 something. I hope they have those information before telling the guests this is an option….
Close by the bus terminal. And all the museums,, al in walking distance. Room is clean as usual and easy to control everything. I like the tiny bench inside room. Very easy to tidy up luggage.
