Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Nothing...all 👍
The staff is always exceptional...from doormen to cleaning folks to reception (Amrit is a rockstar)...these people are real. Room is perfect and comfy with enough pizazz but not over the top and a true gym that is actually useful. Turning down the blankets at night is a nice touch!

This is a very minor gripe, but I wasn't a huge fan of the shower. It was a bit noisier than expected when starting it up. It didn't impact anything, was just a little confusing at first.
I originally found this hotel when looking for a recommendation for a friend of my wife who was visiting the area. We ended up staying here ourselves and were quite happy with our choice. Location is obviously very convenient, staff were very polite and helpful, and the quality is quite high. Our room also had the best blackout curtains I've ever experienced in a hotel room, which is very appreciated for a finicky sleeper.

Some of the city sounds weren't blocked out as well as I would have hoped. We were on the 7th floor but could hear vagrants (?) shouting to each other down below at 3 AM. Also, beware that the prices are high for any amenities here ... like $7.50 for a cappuccino at the cafe downstairs.
We had an excellent room with very comfortable beds. The lobby is fashionable and inviting, and every single employee was super friendly. This hotel is also in a great location right on Dupont Circle.

The room was stuffy, you could smell the dust, and the windows didn’t open so we couldn’t really air it out. I got really congested from it. Also the shower wouldn’t drain. it was clogged and whatever was in the drain would wash back up. it was pretty disgusting actually. We told the front but no one ever addressed it.
The Pembroke is superb. Staff is great here, location was very excellent. the main areas are nice. Great hotel and restaurant staff,

This is a stylish comfortable hotel. The staff is gracious. The rooms are comfortable including a reclining couch next to the window with a view, and a great desk. It’s layout is superb, cozy comfortable lobby with. Fireplace and reading material, a great bar that looks out on to DuPont Circle. Nice restaurants, coffe bar with pastries. A cross the street are other restaurants great shopping a Sunday farmers market. Metro is a small block away. We have stayed there twice in the last 6 months.it feels like a home away from home.
