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.).

Very good all round, liked the keyless access, the reception is nice & secure and the staff friendly, room was well laid out with all expected amenities which you don't always get at this price point, bathroom size was good & well laid out, shower needed some attention as I struggled to turn it off but at least it had decent pressure & heat, again not something always guaranteed in London at this price. Location is excellent, 40 mins walk from Buckingham Palace (or take the tube/taxi) 10 min walk to Knightbridge, 5 mins to Hyde Park, South Kensington & Royal Albert Hall..

ItalyExcellent location, in a central, yet quiet and green neighborhood, South Kensington in zone 1. Clean and spacious room. Always friendly staff. Good value for money. It definitely deserves a higher average score and I will recommend it to my friends.

United KingdomGreat location, clean room. Sadly the bedside light was broken and no capacity for them to replace the bulb so unable to relax and read as only options were darkness or very bright overhead lights.. But this was just unlucky - would definitely stay again and hopefully they’ll buy in a box of spare lightbulbs!

United KingdomI really like this hotel and location. The rooms are always clean and the staff are friendly . This was my first time going solo. The single room and single bed was small . It had no air con and no black out blinds which was a bit of a let down . It was also cheaper to book on Booking.com than on their own website as a member .

TurkeyThe location of the hotel was excellent. Access to the room and communication with the hotel were flawless. It was clean, and all the snacks and tea & coffee we needed were unlimited. I will always choose to stay at this hotel and would recommend it to everyone. Just a note — the rooms are a bit small.

NetherlandsThe sink in the bathroom... It must have been designed by a man. It was a very small sink. Absolutely impossible to wash your face without making a full on water ballet mess around the sink area. Shower is also not adjustable in height so if you're a woman not wanting to wash their hair....good luck.
Cleanliness could have been a little better but it was not dirty. Just a few details. Bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly. Complimentary breakfast was nothing special but enough to choice to get you going in the morning.

United KingdomBedroom sliding sash window mechanism was broken so the window repeatedly shut its self. Bedroom radiator thermostat didn’t seem to work so we could not turn heating down either, meaning bedroom was always too hot. Bedside USB socket didn’t work and no bedside shelf/table/light/socket on other side of bed at all, despite there being space for something small, which was rather irritating for the person on that side of the bed! Biggest complaint was that bedroom and breakfast room lighting is a strange dull white tone which is rather depressing and gives everything a dull grey and rather miserable ‘half light’ feel. A change to brighter warm white LED bulbs would make a massive improvement and cheer the place up significantly.
Great location and overall good value. Rooms clean. There are a few aspects which, if fixed/changed, would make a massive improvement.

CanadaShower is very small, hard to regulate heat in room. Single room was very small and I did not love being on the ground floor. However, I booked the single room And should have known it was tiny. Could not really open a suitcase properly. Nobody comes to clean the room. I was there 3 nights and not once did anyone come to make bed, refresh towels, clean garbage etc. not sure what the policy is.
Central location, clean, mostly comfortable, iron and ironing board was nice, option to have breakfast now which is new, staff is friendly and helpful.

ArmeniaWhen confirming the booking, I was asked to register in their system. The email was worded in a way that made it seem like a mandatory step, but it required a photo of my passport and face. After speaking with the managers, I found out that it is also possible to register at the hotel reception during working hours. This approach left a slightly unpleasant impression.
An excellent location for travelling with children. The metro and bus stop are nearby, as well as the Natural History Museum. You can also walk to the boat station in just 20 minutes.
