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 KingdomOur air conditioning didn’t work and the room was very warm. No windows to open so felt very stuffy. An engineer came and I got the impression this was already a known problem however he offered us a fan which sufficed as we were only there for 1 night. The extractor fan in the bathroom didn’t work which meant the bathroom was very steamed up and damp after showering. No drinking water or milk for the tea/coffee facilities in the room. Had to call and request it however this is a minor point and was delivered to us.
Great price, close to the station and the centre of Birmingham. I shared a twin room with a friend and it was very satisfactory - Comfortable bed, clean, spacious, simple decor and didn’t look too tired like some hotels. The staff were friendly and there was a decent breakfast included in our price. Overall a very good experience and I would recommend this hotel.

United KingdomThe bathroom was outdated. The room was very noisy in the night - it was creaking?! switched the air con off but the noise continued. must be a common occurrence as ear plugs provided on bedside table.
Excellent staff, great location, good size rooms and very comfortable beds. Good breakfast.

United KingdomThis was a perfectly pleasant stay in a very modern, well located hotel. Although we didn't make use of the gym I'm sure it is excellent. However at we felt that the £193 a night without breakfast price tag was very steep for what is a fairly characterless hotel. I guess that's the price you pay for a Central location...
Great location bang in the middle of Birmingham. We were there for a show at the Alexandra theatre which was literally next door. Also within a short walk is gas street basin, great for a night out although booking essential if you want to eat somewhere, which we found out to our cost. For those with a retail therapy itch to scratch the bull ring is also only a 5 to 10 minute walk away, as is the station. The room was a good size, and clean and tidy, as you'd expect for a large chain.

United KingdomMy partners room had only one chair even though there was plenty of space for a second chair. When I went to the room I had to sit on the bed. (Room 1404). I appreciate the hotel caters for a large number of people but when I had the cooked breakfast I found the sausage and bacon dry and overcooked and quite tough probably due to the length of time it had been under the cloche. 2 drinks consisting of double Malibu & coke and a double Vodka & coke came to £26.40. I expect to pay higher prices in a hotel in the centre of Birmingham but I thought this was on the high side.
My room was spacious, comfortable with 2 chairs and was clean. My partners room was also spacious, comfortable and clean. The location was perfect having attended The Hippodrome to see a show. The lifts were plentiful and fast and we did not have to wait long for one to arrive. Staff were polite and helpful.
