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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

SpainThere could have been at least a small table in the room. Just to eat a snack or do couple of things with laptop. After check-out, we put our luggage in the lockers in the lobby, but since we handed over our entry cards during check-out process and there was no receptionist or doorman at the hotel, we had difficulty getting back inside through the main door to take our luggages back. There was no elevator for guest for carrying luggages to the upper floors. Only stairs.
The hotel was quiet and clean. Most of the room was adequate. They have made every effort to keep the nightly prices down without compromising on comfort. Self check-in was very easy. Its proximity to the city center was very good. We used public transportation for free with the Baselcard they provided us and we were able to enter the zoo for half the price. There were lockers provided for guests in the lobby for using after check-out.

We liked that the bathroom was called the tiny loo. The room was absolutely fine for a night, and had everything that we needed. It was a 5 minute walk to the tram stop to get us to the centre or you could walk it in 20 minutes

HungaryThe bathroom had no door, which is unacceptable to me. I don't want to make eye contact with my roommate from the toilet. The window is very small, so the room is dark and the pillow is uncomfortable. Other than that, I liked the room.
Perfect location, everything is close, great transport (which is free thanks to the basel card). The checkout process is easy and fast.

IrelandWhen we booked, the check-in time was stated as 2pm, but upon arrival, the local instructions indicated check-in only after 3pm. Additionally, there was no locker available to leave our bags, so we had to inquire at a nearby hotel. Furthermore, there was a missing kettle in the bedroom.
The location is very good. Easy access to public transport and all the main touristic points. The room was very clean and organized and the self check in is very hand and easy.
