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...).

United StatesWe arrived after midnight due to a delayed flight. The manager, C, was outstanding both on the phone when I called the day of and when we arrived. Late checkout was offered and we gratefully accepted. The room was nice, with a good shower, and a comfy bed. Continental breakfast was included which made the morning easier.

AustraliaIt was quite loud at night and the balcony was too small to use in my opinion. Would be nice to also have a fridge amenity in the room. Also the coffee counter was not open at 10 am on a Sunday which I was surprised I also got charged more than advertised which I’m not sure why?
The bed was comfy and design of the room is cool :) service was great at front desk also.

Australiatwo little seats on the balcony would have been preferred. No room tea making facilities was a challenge as we like a late night cuppa and ditto early morning - having to dress and navigate bringing two cups of tea back to our room was something we didn't enjoy ( this is a minimal annoyance and wouldn't preclude me from staying at the Alex again ) Upon arrival the use of the mezzanine floor fridge and facilities should have been explained esp the availability of bottled and filtered water
Loved the availability of both bottled and filtered water as well as complimentary fruits tea? coffee. The mezzanine floor is welcome and comfortable as is the bar area esp with books & games. my little balcony was great too

United KingdomThe only thing I thought was a negative, was the size of the rooms. They felt smaller than those advertised and the balcony can only fit one chair on it.
The free breakfast for everyone is an amazing plus. The location of the hotel is also so close to the train station, it makes it so easy to get to anywhere in the city. The hotel also felt very safe, with the gates closing to the hotel from early in the evening, so people need a card key for entry.
