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.).

RussiaI like the place. Actually, there are two hotels by that name in Sultanahmet. The first one is nearby and it faces the tram rails. But this hotel - №2 and it is situated in a very quiet street, nevertheless a couple of steps away from Agia Sophia. But keep in mind that there is no elevator in the building.

RomaniaWe had a few minor inconveniences caused by other guests who made a lot of noise at very late hours. However, this is in no way the hotel's fault, as the behavior of guests is not something that can be controlled. Otherwise, climbing the steep stairs might be a challenge, but we managed to survive just fine.
The property was just as we expected, a budget accommodation, just a few minutes from Topkapi Palace and other landmarks in the center. The administrator was very helpful, assisting us with finding a parking spot, guiding us to the accommodation, and recommending a great place to have a delicious meal. He is a very kind and accommodating person, and we really appreciated his help. For us, it mattered more to be close to the center because we love the area and all the hustle and bustle of the merchants and tourists, and we wanted to be able to go for a walk at any time. The small imperfections of the hotel where we stayed didn't affect us much at all because the area was worth everything

United KingdomCan't think of any.
I liked the location of the hotel most. You are literally 2 minutes from the Aya Sofia and you can even see the Aya Sofia from your window. You can go to Arasta Bazaar and Grand Bazaar walking. You have a food street with all types of the food at the two minutes walk. The staff are very friendly. The room size is good. Good WiFi and TV.
