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...).

United StatesWe stayed at the silken hotel for 5 days and 4 nights. Overall had a good experience. The water pressure in the shower was excellent , rooms were sound proof so we slept really well. Our room was spacious and the air conditioning kept it nice and cool. We didn’t need the extra amenities because we only came back to our room to sleep so it was perfect for us. Free snacks and coffee in the lobby were provided but the best part is the staff. There was a young lady at the front desk who was so kind and helpful with questions that we had and even let us keep our suitcases in the lobby after we checked out so we could kill some time due to a later flight.

UgandaI did not like that there is no restaurant or breakfast at the hotel but there’s a coffee machine and free snacks at the lobby available.
The location was a walkable distance to a few things nearby, otherwise 10 min away from the main attractions by uber. Polite and kind staff at the reception.

PhilippinesThe staff are not very good in English so it might be a little hard to communicate. The location is a little far from the touristy spots in Taipei, and also from the bus station and train station so the location is a little inconvenient. However, there are lots of stores, restaurants, and even a night market nearby so there's definitely some stuff to see around (it's just not as bustling compared to other areas in Taipei).
Stayed here for a few days with my family, the room is very spacious which we liked very much. We had a very comfortable stay in this nice hotel, I definitely recommend it to families of 4 to 5 people.

SingaporeLobby had a musty smell upon entrance upon first arrival, the outlook of the hotel was not exactly what we expected based on the images shown on booking platforms but the room decor and soothing theme and large toilet size made up for the lacking outlook aspects. Along the same floor, our allocated room was the only room equipped with bulky emergency facilities that occupied a section of the room area near to the toilet entrance, we understand that this is for emergency use but it would be good if the counter staff had checked with us before checking us in if we were alright with the room setting or preferred for another room.
Being informed that the hotel was renovated more than a year ago, the lobby area is relatively simple and small. The room decor is of soothing theme and colour, the toilet is huge and spacious. The room is bright when curtains are drawn, just next to highway but quiet corner of the neighbourhood. Quiet and safe neighbourhood vibes, close to Shuang Cheng Street Night Market, although small size but relatively crowded during the period of our visits. Counter Staffs were very polite and helpful each and every time we approached them.

Czech Republic- The toilet clogged two times during our 5-day stay, even though we followed the instructions and did NOT throw toilet paper in it. - The matresses were very bouncy, but I guess that comes to personal preference. - There was no soap, we had to used the shower gel. - The staff did not speak English very well.
- Good location, near to MRT station. Bus stop right near the hotel - useful for getting to e.g. Shilin district. - Staff was very hospitable and helpful. Near the end of our stay I was dealing with a lost wallet and the receptionist was kind enough to make some calls on my behalf. I greatly appreciate that. - The room was comfortable and clean, with a big window. - The toilet had a bidet seat. - The hotel offers free coffee and snacks in the lobby - although we did not used it, is is a nice benefit.

CanadaThe hotel itself is a little bit old, and the area is a little bit old too. Considering the price, it is very well worth the money spent.
The hotel stuff are very kind and rooms are kept clean. Amenities are great, very convenient with public transportation, food, even self-service laundry in the area. You can enjoy the local food in steps.

The room and bathroom is spacious with all the accommodation necessities. I like the ways of how the bedroom lights were set up which make me feel comfortable and cozy at night. The overall experience was wonderful. I highly recommend this hotel and I would return in my next visit.

CanadaThe sign outside doesn’t say Silken. Only realized it was the correct hotel by using Google Maps. Although the room was quiet the area around it was noisy and unattractive.
Larger rooms than most other similarly priced hotels. An older hotel well kept older style. Quiet.
