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 KingdomThere was some mold around the edge of the sink and a stain on the sofa. The noise from the street was loud until past 2am. The bin lorries were loud when they came around early morning. Would not recommend to anyone who is a light sleeper. The sash windows ideally need updating or soundproofing added.
Room was lovely, good size and good facilities. Got some small snacks and drinks in the room which were a lovely touch.

United KingdomBathroom could use updating, but clean, hot water and working shower. Some furniture had marks/scrapes but that's just wear and tear from multiple visitors.
Walking distance to London Paddington station, good price, clean & comfortable. Complimentary snacks in the room and friendly staff. We arrived to leave our luggage, but our room was ready, so they let us check in early, which was really helpful.

BelgiumAirconditioning is only available during summer, this is not mentioned clearly. Because of this, we had to keep the windows open and hardly had some sleep because this street is very very noisy, lots of (drunk?) people shouting in the middle of the night due to a pub nearby. Lots of ambulances due to the hospital nearby. Bathroom needs some upkeep, showerhead fell of and had a not of limescale, paint was flaking of the wall.
Centeal location, close to different tube stations and a lot of nice places to eat. Room is a nice size. Very nice staff.

BelgiumThere was a lot of noise. The elevator was loud f.e. (our room was right next to it). Next to that, all our electrical devices had poor connections to the outlets. Also the hairdryer that was made available for us by the accommodation, also had poor connection to the outlets which was strange and a bit annoying.
The staff was super friendly. The room was spacious (and had no carpet - which is good), there was a microwave, hairdryer, little fridge, toaster etc available. The bed was large enough for two. Location is perfect!
