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 KingdomNo bin in the room, one flat pillow and the rooms were quite warm. Didn't really bother us as we only slept there and then ventured out again but it is notable.
The car park and location is great and very reasonable for the price. Staff were helpful, and someone was available 24/7.

IrelandWe stayed during the fringe festival in August and was exactly what we needed - a comfy, clean, bed. The facilities aren’t fancy but it is very comfortable and great value for money when you look at the prices of other accommodation during the month of august in Edinburgh. The staff were lovely and helpful and the location was great, there is a bus stop only 5 minutes walk away that will bring you straight into the city.

United KingdomThe light in the bathroom was faulty and kept rapidly flashing on and off every time the bathroom door was opened - showering and using the loo felt like being stuck in a rave! Bed was small and not the comfiest but for the price it was fine.
Really welcoming staff, clean room, access to kitchen with all the necessary cutlery etc. Decent location for the price (15-ish minutes drive/taxi into the city centre but also walkable) considering how pricey everywhere else is during the Fringe.

United KingdomStaying in a student room (in a flat of 5 rooms) worked really well. It was clean, the en-suite was good, shower good. There is a kitchen in the flat where you can store and cook food which saved money on buying expensive coffees in the morning. This is basic accommodation, but suited our needs just right. Check in staff really helpful.

AustraliaGot a bit warm but was fine with window cracked. Could be a bit confusing finding the right door at first (doors within doors with the same numbers). No room around the bed, but fine for one person just to sleep (and plenty of storage space).
It was great - comfortable, clean and modern and 20 minutes or so walking distance from the Fringe. Great value for money during the Fringe. Lots of space on desk and shelving for all my stuff. Bathroom was a bit small but they always are in the UK! Right near a Lidl, which was also great, although obviously no fridge in room.
