Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 StatesThe room was really, really small. We had the cozy but it was really tight for two people. Bed was up against the wall so not easy to get out of bed with two people. Had to shimmy to the end of the bed to get out and there was no way to move the bed. Bathroom also extremely tiny. Tough space for my 6’4” husband. Sink needs its own light. Hard to put on makeup. Very limited amenities for the price of the room. No iron, no mini fridge bc there’s no room.
The location and staff were AMAZING! Pretty decor.

Quaint old hotel, in a very quiet area of Upper East Side, close to Central Park, and a quite a few restaurants on 3rd Avenue. Very clean and very friendly and helpful staff.

Portugal700€ per night for a still too small room ( even after upgrade) no breakfast included, even not available, is far too expensive even in Manhattan
Location, proximity to subway. Very cosy hotel. Very clean rooms and confortável beds. Staff is amazing! We booked a room with city view but at arrival we were looking at a wall. Wrong information from booking.com. Fortunately the hotel gave us upgrade to room with view.

United Arab EmiratesLocated in New York's Upper East Side, voco The Franklin New York, an IHG Hotel, is a great find for city explorers. It's near a bus stop and subway, making travel easy. The area is quiet, with plenty of good places to eat and a cinema nearby. Though the rooms are small, they are well-designed, comfortable, and include windows. The hotel staff are friendly and helpful, and there's affordable laundry service available. It's also a short walk from Central Park. For its location and cost, this hotel is a smart choice for travelers.

IrelandWe loved the location as it’s an easy walk to Central Park, eateries, and the subway while being fairly quiet and safe. Our room was compact but clean and perfect for us. Big shout out to the staff here, especially Jasmine! So helpful, so friendly, and just all round excellent service - they also make good coffee! The lobby area is perfect for sitting in and having coffee, working remotely, and they have a good range of snacks.
