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.).

SwitzerlandThe mattress let you feel when the other one in the bed turned or moved. The windows wouldn't close properly, so you could hear the street noise.
The hotel is super cute, the decoration is beautiful and the lobby very comfortable to have a snack in the evening if you don't want to go out. The rooms are beautiful and with an old style. Super nice ambiance and the staff was lovely.

Singaporethe design of the en-suite bathroom was clearly style over substance. there was no way the shower head could be in its holder, with the water flow turned to the fullest (as one would usually i suppose), and not flood the entire sink + toilet bowl area. the shower curtain, while looking lux being a thicker cloth in deep blue, did absolutely nothing except to protect our modesty. we had to resort to turning the water on to barely a trickle to shower. in the land of locally made durable 18-8/18-10 stainless steel, they also chose those trendy black painted ones that show the wear and tear so much more quickly. ventilation fan switch is combined with the light switch, so there wasn't a way we could've left the fan on overnight to dry the mess even if we didn't mind the sound. there also weren't enough space for hanging towel + change of clothes inside. compounded dust and hair along the window sills and frames + stains on the white bed linen + rug in the room is not acceptable.
great location, and i love the eclectic mix of vintage furniture curated by the owner. we loved the amount of sunlight pouring in through the whole wall of window, framed beautifully by old wood.

United KingdomOn the last day we had to leave at 8am which meant we missed breakfast. It would have been nice to have been offered a pack up. And word of warning if you say you would like breakfast at 9am, your cooked breakfast will be ready at 9.
We were in the top floor room which was very nice and had a lovely balcony. The only downside was that there was no lift so we had to carry our bags up 3 flights of stairs. But we managed it and i would choose the same room again. The room and hotel was quite quirky and a nice change from soulless international chains. There were nice little touches like free sweetie jars and cans of pop in reception . The staff were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good (although cold on the first day - see comment below!)

AustraliaBreakfast is quite forgetable. It's cooked there and the plate is brought to you at the table, which is lovely, but the food itself is very simple. No butter/jam/sauce are provided.
This place is absolutely amazing and probably the best we stayed at during our trip to taiwan. We chose the dancer room and it was so big and beautiful. The entire house is beautiful, I wish my own house looked like it. It's very easy to travel around from there and its surrounded by temples and places to eat.

NetherlandsSince you cannot chose breakfast, let them know in advance if there is something you don't eat, otherwise it might be too late!
The place is very cosy and well decorated. The room is very nice and practical. Breakfast is prepared by the staff, you cannot chose but it is well prepared and tasty. You can also borrow an umbrella which is very useful since it can rain a lot.

1. This hostel is located in the very city center of Tainan, within reach of numerous local must-go restaurants and cafes, also it is just right next to the famous Fort Provintia. 2. The hostel was renovated from an old mansion, yet the in-room facilities are modern while blending in very well with the historical objects. 3. The public area is designed with owner's splendid taste as well as the selection of the furniture. Moreover, the house comes with 2 atriums, one arranged as a terrace and the other is a kitchen zone 4. Your stay comes with a breakfast, western style, egg, sausage, yogurt, a bit of fried vegetable and a cup of drink (hot or cold) 5. During check-in, you will be served a welcome drink and snack, mine was a glass of tea and several pieces of dried fruit. 6. It was so good that I felt sad after I left.

United StatesThere is very little I could say negatively about this location. Perhaps it was a little difficult to bring all my luggage up the steps, which were a little steep. That is my own fault for packing so heavily!
The staff here we're extremely courteous, accommodating, and kind. When we needed help booking a taxi or asking for.help translating/calling our next destination they were very helpful! During our stay the local stores were closed, and the staff provided us with some food and necessities that we may not have been able to obtain due to the closures.

ItalyI liked everything. Obviously it is in an old house and there are stairs so maybe not suitable if you have mobility issues. But this is clearly marked in the description, so no surprises and nothing bad really.
It has a lot of character, every little detail is unique! The style is superb, location is 10/10. From there you can walk easily to all the best sites. Staff is so nice.
