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.).

United KingdomHaving stayed in NYC a few times this spot is refreshing for the room size. Located right in Chinatown is great for me as I like to walk and explore. Staff are super helpful

United StatesCoffee / tea possibilities in the room would have been nice. Being closer to a subway line would have been even more ideal, but it is relatively close to Soho, LES, Chinatown, etc so what's to complain about?
Great property! Well kept; friendly staff; nice big room. I got lucky with an extraordinary view of uptown Manhattan. Nice and quiet with a lovely bathroom and big shower! Big bed. They changed the sheets daily (the housekeeper was a very kind woman). I always trust the Joie de Vivre brand. Loved my stay here!

IsraelOur stay at Hotel 50 Bowery was very enjoyable. The staff were consistently helpful and friendly, making us feel welcome. The staff were incredibly attentive, going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. Their genuine kindness and local knowledge made us feel truly welcomed. Our room was clean, well-designed, and comfortable, with nice views of the city. The location in the Bowery district was convenient for exploring the surrounding neighborhoods, particularly Chinatown and the Lower East Side. The accessibility to various subway lines made getting around Manhattan easy. Overall, we had a positive experience at Hotel 50 Bowery and would recommend it to those looking for a comfortable and well-located hotel in Manhattan.

United StatesThe lighting in the room was very low. We had our make up artist come to prepare for the fashion show but we struggled with the lighting.
I have never experienced such amazing customer service before at a hotel and especially in NY! The staff was polite, friendly and fast to assist when needed. We asked for an iron and when we got back to the room it was there, we asked for an additional robe and as expected it was taken to us within minutes! This quality of care was amazing.

United KingdomThe only complaint we had was the rooms were very hot! We did notify the staff though & they gave us a reduction in price. Actual hotel was great.
Modern & clean decor. We especially liked the location as away from the hugely busy area of Times Sq but still plenty of lovely places to explore by foot. The rooftop bar had incredible views! Simply amazing!

United StatesNot much. One of our two rooms seemed to have some issues with temperature regulation (the room ran a bit too warm) until the last day. But that's not the worst thing in the winter--otherwise there was nothing to not like!
Super welcoming staff, quick service, very clean and modern rooms, hot showers with good pressure and an excellent location in the middle of bustling Chinatown. We'll be staying here again!

PortugalCould be for this time of the year, but is not cheap, and don’t like to pay the caution money at the check in, but wait one week for refund.
Close to Chinatown area, and Little Italy, should be an option if you wanna visit different spots in NY. It’s not far from Brooklyn Bridge or event Statue of Liberty. Good breakfast, good treatment, good bedroom.
