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 KingdomAlthough the bathroom was large , the shower over the bath felt jammed into the corner with little room to move. This wasn't helped by the shower screen which would not stay put and moved towards you during the shower. We were surprised to discover that the centralised air conditioning does not get turned on until the end of May. Why ?? The room was initially very hot. The staff tried to turn on something for just that room but it worked just like a fan and couldn't cool the room. Fortunately this room had a large window which we kept wide open day and night. As the weather turned cool while we were there we managed to keep the room cool.
This is a very large hotel right opposite the train station. It is within easy walking distance of all the sights in the centre as well as restaurants , bars and cafes. We booked for 4 nights and we had a surprise treat of being upgraded to a junior suite. The room was at the back of the hotel facing the city and was very quiet. The room was very spacious and comfortable with a seating area and tea and coffee making facilities. It also had a large bathroom with a powerful shower albeit over the bath. The reception staff were exceptionally welcoming , friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again if in Bologna. However we would time it for when the air conditioning is turned on or go in mid winter.

QatarThe front desk staff are very friendly, attentive and very busy on their computers working to get you checked in and out as fast as possible...but it very slow and I can only think that it is their computer system. The TVs are are flat screen, but not smart TVs which would have allowed a foreign traveller to stream their own content ... so only italian options.
My 2nd stay while passing through Bologna in the past 4 years. This a clean and modern hotel with friendly staff and a very good buffet breakfast. For the traveller, the location immediately across from the train station with monorail to the airport in about 10 minutes is exceptional. I would wouldn't hesitate staying here again.

United StatesThis hotel was great for us since we came into town very late and had to catch a train the next day. It is literally across the street from the train station and from our room we could clearly see the whole station scene ... comforting! Speaking of comfort, the room met all of our needs and the buffet breakfast was hassle free and good. The staff were wonderful. The hotel stored our luggage overnight while we traveled to San Marino for a day. When we returned they were very accommodating and with a taxi stand across the street, our departure was a breeze.

RomaniaEverything. Position is very convenient, just near the Central Rail station, at 7 minutes with Marconi Express train into the airport. At 10 minutes walking to the historic centre on Via dell Independenza, which is a must see anyway. A lot of parkings for whom reach by car. Bus station, taxi station at the entrance. General shop DeSpar with everyhing right in front of the hotel. The staff was very friendly and supportive at front desk but also at breakfast. For this a lot of thanks. There are a lot of conference rooms, a gym, a nice bar and restaurant. Rooms are very large, modern, spotlesly clean, well feated for a real 4 star. Frigobar, safecase, tea coffee maker, audio system. The bathroom is really large. The bed is wonderfull. Everyday the rooms is fixed. Breakfast is diversified and perfect for every choice and tastes, with quality products and ingredients, and very friendly staff. Great expresso. We should come back for sure with a great pleasure. A big 10 and thank you all.

CroatiaWe expected more out of 4 **** hotel with ratings over 8.2 on Booking. The room was dusty. They did not communicate transparently parking cost. Family room is not actually a familiy room, but a regular room with squeezed extra bed inside. Photo of the room vs. reality is missleading. And in front of the hotel, just right besides the main entrance, in the evening hours, there were constantly several homeless people sleeping. This also a bit flopped the entire impression.
Location was near the city centre Breakfast was solid.

JapanAC was initially turned off. Hot water took 2 minutes to come out of the shower at best. One time, no hot water came out for over 10 minutes. First card key given to me did not work. Card key lock is old model with a really loud buzzer. Strange smell in room. Very basic amenities for a hotel which claims to be four star.
