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...).

AustraliaRoom was quite small for 2 adults and 2 suitcases - you have to be organized! :-)
Comfortable hotel in a great area close to Paddington station and lots of eating options and pubs. Walking distance to Marble Arch, Kensington Gardens, little Venice, Abbey Road and Lords. In an area full of hotels that I can't compare, this one met our expectations and was fine for us for 5 nights. Small room and adequate (small) bathroom.

ItalyNothing on my account, but some of the rooms are up 4 flights of stairs so be careful to ask for ground floor if you have mobility issues. Needs a bit of electrical modernisation in terms of some USB ports in the rooms. Most phones and pads now rely more on us ports than plugs.
The Gresham is only 600m from Paddington Station so access all London areas plus an easy journey to Gatwick Airport. The place is clean and, for London, the room is a good size and we'll aired, which isn't always the case in london. I will deff stay here again. Breakfast very good too. Love the area of Paddington and easy walk to Edgeware road where you arrive at Marble Arch and Oxford St with 15 mins on foot

LuxembourgRoom was not so clean and walls are so thin that one could hear everything from upstairs. Our room was on the ground floor, right above the kitchen so we had to wake up every morning when the staff started preparing for breakfast.

CanadaThere is no AC in this hotel. Make sure guests are aware, especially if they will visit around summertime. It's not the hotels fault. Guests upstairs were noisy. If you're a light sleeper like me, ask for a room on the top floor.
Location is perfect for transit or short stays.

The hotel was clean. Staff welcoming, helpful, and friendly. Comfy beds. Breakfast was included. Great value for money. Perfect location. If you had a problem, they would do their best to fix it.Will be staying again.

United KingdomParking was a slight issue and the member of staff who I spoke to about parking was quite rude but the rest of the staff I encountered were lovely and helpful.
Amazing location and rooms were clean and private. Most of the staff were great and the luggage storage was super helpful as I arrived really early and couldn't check in. The included breakfast makes this good value for money.
