Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

NetherlandsReview of Sofitel Dubai: My stay at Sofitel Dubai was absolutely outstanding. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the warm welcome, the elegant interior, and the attention to detail throughout the hotel. The staff were incredibly professional, friendly, and always willing to help. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and offered a stunning view. Every comfort was taken care of, from the high-quality bed linens to the luxurious bathroom amenities. The breakfast was exceptional—so many fresh, high-quality options, and everything was delicious. The facilities, including the pool, spa, and restaurants, were top-notch and created a truly relaxing atmosphere. Whether you’re in Dubai for business or leisure, I can highly recommend Sofitel. It was an unforgettable experience and I would definitely return.

United Arab EmiratesI booked a sea view room and was given first floor ‘resort view ‘ that wasn’t a view at all! The room was rather dark and there was no charging stations near the bed! The breakfast was basic and we ordered tea that came after we were done because they forgot! At dinner, my sister had a stained napkin that looked horrifying! It had this big, blood-like stain in the middle.
The concierge Denis was amazing!

United Arab EmiratesThe proper is gorgeously set on The Palm with friendly staff and appropriate facilities. Could do with a few more staff at the check-in counter though, with more seats at the lobby maybe. Enjoyed our stay nonetheless and was a wonderfully memorable pre-birthday celebration for my daughter.

Germany- breakfast was not the quality we expected and ambience was "so la la". Huge breakfast room with tons of people in it which we did not expected in this setup, does not match with overall luxury hotel style. - beach area was not clean, "algae carpet"on shore, yes it is natural and a "Palm Thing" but maybe once a day some clean up could be done - enclosed point is not a hotel mistake or fault but maybe the hotel management could more focus on dress code policy. We are not bourgeois but flip flop, shorts and beach shirt should not be dinner dress code in a nice Steak House.
- Polynesian featured spacious rooms are very modern and thought through, rain forest shower is unique and deserved the name 100%, huge rain forest beam from approx 2.75m makes you feel being in Bora Bora - Porterhouse Steak House. Visit this restaurant!. It is a classy steakhouse offering on table prep and cut service. Special thanks to our waitress which fulfilled special wishes about meat cuts and other wishes and to Concierge who made a table feasible for us, within 3min after requesting one. Very much appreciated !!! Thank you! - amount of greenery inside and outside area of hotel is immense, tropical Polynesia feeling fulfilled - Waterfall Pool is a nice feature and area which we liked and less crowded than Slide Pool and Main Pool

United KingdomCharging for drinking water during dinner service, particularly when you've upgraded to Premier Lounge, is outrageous. The commercialisation of simple drinking water - especially in the Middle East - is dangerous and petty
Lovely room, lovely amenities, very nice staff, great location... a high-end property that matches the hype.
