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...).

UkraineIt is a great place to stay for both leisure and business. Therefore, I recommend that other clients give it a try. It is certainly providing value for money.
The centrality of the property location, quiet atmosphere, and safety. The famous Hungarian parliament is within a few hundred meters from the Art and Design property and Museum and Opera House with a variety of Restuarant options.

United Arab EmiratesA couple more pillows would be appreciated.
Great location within walking distance of many sites and good public transport links. Studio was warm and comfortable and we enjoyed the complimentary tea, coffee and chocolates. The host provided clear communication before we arrived. Upon request, they organised a taxi to the airport and allowed us a late check out - truly excellent service! The studio is located in an old building with inner courtyard which provided an authentic, quirky Budapest experience.

SingaporeThe wifi was very spotty and barely worked at times, but I suspect it's the area because my mobile data also worked well in most parts of the city except in the apartment itself. Nothing that was a dealbreaker and I would happily stay here again.
Location was super convenient yet in the quiet part of town. The apartment was easy to access and had everything we needed, from a washing machine to a microwave and coffee and tea. The bedroom required climbing stairs to a loft-style room but it was fine as long as you're careful and mobile. Lots of good restaurants in the area and supermarkets too. Basically walkable to everywhere. Tibor was friendly and communicative throughout, even offering us luggage storage. We had a lovely stay.

United StatesCharming and reminds me of Hungary’s practicality.
The place has a nice charm to it that is simple and practical. Despite the place being a bit on the smaller side, there are nice art decor and old-school practicality that really adds to the charm. It feels more real like a place that is lived in. The location is great with lots of restaurants, the train station, and two major touristy sites (the Parliament & The Basilica) within walking distance. The staff was also very prompt in correspondences and accommodating.

United StatesThis property is very cute and nicely situated near everything! Want a quick walk to the Danube? Done. Hop on a metro? Five minute walk. Need a good meal that isn't super expensive? Take your pick, there are so many around. Communication with Tibor was wonderful and check-in was quick and easy! I love that many places have self-check in these days, because after a long day of travel, sometimes all you want to do is just go in and sleep! Bed was SUPER comfortable here and we loved having a space away from the noise of the city. The apartment itself had everything you need and it's clear that a lot of thought went into making the space feel like home (it does!). There is a book with recommendations and wi-fi setup and everything so you immediately feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. Stairs are a bit steep so watch your step if you're not sure-footed, but you should not have problems unless you have mobility issues. Area is top notch. It is walkable to so many things, including the breathtaking Parliament building. Anything that is not walkable is easily accessible by the nearby metro, which seems to be a major metro stop, so you don't have to deal with too many transfers. This is the perfect place for people who are looking for a little more space than a hotel to spend time exploring everything Budapest has to offer! Thank you again Tibor!

AustraliaBudapest doesn’t do coffee before 8am, which isn’t great if you’re jet lagged!
The host was very friendly and communicated well, and there was heating and lights on when I arrived late. The property was small and quirky, but everything I needed, and the bed was very comfortable. And the location is incredible: right near transport, river, monuments, park; with restaurants and supermarket nearby. I loved the neighbourhood!

It was in a perfect location right next to the Parliament and within 5 minutes of St Stephen’s Basílica and some amazing restaurants. Clean with everything you need and host was very helpful. It was also so quiet being right in the middle of the city.

NetherlandsThe stairs from my bedroom area to the rest of the studio was pretty steep so sometimes it’s just a little inconvenient to go up and down, but most especially down.
I liked the design and colors of the studio. The location was perfect, it was so close to places I wanted to see and it was in a nice neighbourhood so I (5’2 tall solo female traveler) felt completely safe walking around at night.

BulgariaLoud banging and buzzing noise coming from the electrical breaker board. The sounds were scary and we could barely sleep the first night. The owner explained what it is and how to disable it, but this should be put in the welcoming booklet, IMO.
Lots of people mention the staircase is a strict negative here, but if this is the case why do you select this specific appartment? :) The stair adds charm and identity to this place and gave us some memories to hold on in future. Location is good - 5 mins to the Parlament, 10 mins to Deak Ferenz square with all transport options. Place is clean. Communication with owner was good. The place is well equipped (kitchen + laundry) and has lots of electrical outlets for charging all our devices. Quiet place in the beautiful internal building yard, even has its own outdoor seating.
