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 location was good but at night it did seem a little sketchy. I was a lone female traveller and didn’t feel that safe walking to the hotel at night. There was also no hand wash in the room - I had my own so this wasn’t a problem and I’m sure they would have provided me some if I’d asked.
The room was a good size with good facilities. The hotel is in a convenient location and close to most of the cities attractions. It’s right next to a trolley stop so easy to get to. The valet parking will set you back €58 a night which is extortionate and the parking around the hotel didn’t seem a reasonable price either, so best to get public transport if you can.

AustraliaThe bar / coffee shop was being renovated during our entire stay which was a little annoying but the hotel set up a mini bar adjacent so we could still access drinks and meals. The newly renovated bar looked amazing though.
Great location for the Gaslamp Quarter. Beautiful building and very friendly staff. Room was clean and spacious.

CanadaThis is not within Management's control however it is important for other travellers to know: we selected this location because we wanted to access multiple sites quickly and felt it was appropriately central. However, the homeless situation in Downtown San Diego has gotten progressively worse over the last few years. We traveled to SD in 2019 pre-pandemic and comparatively, the times These Days have not been kind to the less fortunate. I specifically did not feel safe walking outdoors with my family after sundown and cannot choose to stay here again for that reason. I spoke to the clerk at the 7/11 who confirmed that the petty theft <$1,000 continues to plague CA and he assured me that if I stayed long enough, I would witness it myself. Again, this is not a reflection of the fabulous staff or beautiful building... but certainly important to know when organizing a trip on Booking.com
The building itself was impressive and the lobby was beautiful. The Staff were also very friendly to my family and young child. There were moments where we needed food service outside of regular hours, or needed special accommodations for our child and the staff did not skip a beat. Special shoutout to the night manager at the front desk who was able to get me coffee at 4AM, to the barchef Nick for mixing off the menu drinks, and the cleaning staff for accommodating off-schedule requests!!

Sri LankaWhen I first came the receptionist said there is no booking. They not even bothered to see my booking details on booking.com on my phone. However after giving my passport it was noted that they entered my name wrong on their system. So first experience was poor since I came after a tired flight with delayed and all. Then I was traveling with three big and heavy luggage and with kid, no one was there to support. I had to take all of that to the room and bring back all by my self. This type of hotel I strongly would like to have serviced rather self serviced. Next the staff outside who opens the door didn’t even care about the guest. Once they opened the door it nearly hit my face since the door was opening towards outside. They were busy with their own talks with some one and not concentrating on guest.
Resturant staff was really friendly and not the rest of others. When I first came the receptionist said there no booking.

United StatesThe hotel has a smell of cigarette smoke, at least throughout the third floor. The rooms are comfortable but need some maintenance. For $300/night, I expected a lot more.
The location is nice, and the lobby is beautiful. The staff was very flexible when our arrival plans got mixed up.
