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.).

IndiaIt is a wonderful hotel. It is at main market and safe. room are big and clean. service was superb and people are very friendly and helpful. Everyday they setup our room and clean the washroom. Coffee, tea and kettle are avaliable in room. Breakfast was good and in my case it was included in my bill. For lunch and dinner, you can order it and price is very cheap as compared to restaurants and food quality + quantity were good. I guess i did not face any problem and really enjoy the stay.

ChileEven though the location is very central, it doesn't feel safe to walk around alone at night. All good during the day, when it is full of people and movement.
The room was very confortable with amenities such as TV, hair dryer, coffee, tea, and a small fridge. The breakfast was very complete. The receptionist helped me with any question I had.

United StatesLocation wasn't terrible but not great. If you park in the lot and come in the back, the door is sometimes locked, and not convenient. Also it's not the greatest looking area. One of the staff harassed my colleagues for a tip after he had already been tipped saying he hadn't been tipped to one of them, and the other one that he hadn't been tipped enough.
Room was so spacious and comfortable and clean! Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Food was decent and a great price. Room price was great value!

ItalyThe main door of the hotel is on a little pedestrian square, the taxi could leave only to the back door of the hotel where during the night it is dangerous.
The room was big, clean and the bed very confortable. The staff was very kind and helpful. The breakfast was really good and international. Recommended if you have a conference in the CTICC, 5 min walk.

AustraliaThe only thing l would add would be brighter overhead lights above the bed, because l.like to read in bed! As a single, senior white female, l did not wander around the neighbourhood because the staff indicated that there could be concerns for my safety.
The cooked breakfasts were ample, with some variety each day. Cereals, bread for toasting and pastries were also available!, as well as fresh fruit and cold cuts. The staff members were friendly, helpful and accommodating! They were happy to store my cases in.the back office. The lifts were quick and quiet. Lunch and dinner were available and the meals were substantial and tasty! I always felt safe because there was always a security guard/porter on duty. There was a link to African Eagle Tours, which picked up passengers from Hollow on the Square. This was perfect for me and l did several of the excellent tours. Access to the coffee machine and fresh water was available all day, in the dining room, which adjoined the lobby and bar. The rainhead shower was very easy to manage!
