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...).

AustraliaAll public areas were way too hot. Foyer, common room and passageways.
Great location on electric tram line. Close to castle and A bomb sites. Very clean. Great staff. Very comfortable and good sized rooms. You can use the common room all hours with your own drinks and snacks.

New ZealandThe hotel facilities and staff were excellent. Everything is really modern and clean. The bed was firmer than what we’re used to but still very comfortable. The shower was amazing!! Overall it was a great experience, the small size of the room makes it a little bit of a challenge to manage large luggage but they’ve got clever design to make use of the small space. We stayed in a king bed which was very nice. The pillows were very unusual, they seemed to have a grain in them? We enjoyed our stay.

United KingdomElevators smelt slightly smoky at times due to the vicinity of the smoking room. Not enough to warrant a major issue though.
Easily accessible by bus from the main station, but also not too far to walk. It is also in a good location to visit other famous areas of the city. The hotel felt clean and modern, the lounge area with free drinks at specified hours was a very welcome addition. The room itself was lovely and the bathroom and shower were clean and spacious. Pretty solid view of Kyoto too! Staff were helpful, welcoming and attentive :)

MexicoThe room is ridiculously small, we had a hard time with our luggage. The internet was faulty on my laptop inside the room, I had a hard time with that, and one time the answer they gave me was to just wait. I didn't like that I had to go to the water cooler on the 2nd floor (I was on the 7th), and the breakfast was very hard to get used to (I'm not a fan of eating fish and rice at 9 am), as well as ending quite soon, but certainly helped.
Very comfortable beds, great location close to Nishiki Market and Takashimaya (Nintendo store), friendly staff. The onsen was very nice as well.
