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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

MaltaThe check-in process is lengthy and it took us like 10-15 mins. Given the hotel room was already paid I believe it can be done faster. The room window overlooks a construction sight, which is not exceptional.
I liked the size of the room, which was very ergonomic. The receptionists were always nice and helpful. The room is clean and they clean, change the sheets and towels daily.

United KingdomThe TV had so many channels that dont work , is it worth updating the TVs? Had dinner in bar , Waited 45 minutes for the Bokan Burger and it was only just warm so I returned it. When I did get it back, it looked like it had just been stuck in the microwave and there isnt enough choice on bar menu. On my way out the lady i approached looks like she would rather be on her mobile that checked me out. Room is expensive for what it is to be honest.
Entered the hotel and the man who checked me in was very friendly and polite. The room was clean and I managed to get a booking in the bar for dinner. Overall fairly happy.

BelgiumThe breakfast was generally good but could have been cooked better (bacon was so hard, sausages were bland).
Very modern hotel, comfortable room/bed. I liked the shower in the middle of the room and the way the glass wall could be made opaque for privacy. :) Very close to Canary Wharf tube station and the shopping centres.

United KingdomThe room was very warm, air con not great only issue. If it had been a bit cooler, would have been a perfect. Breakfast - Hot drinks self service. Would have preferred table service on tea/coffee. Staff helpful, except one lady who was unfriendly, asked twice for cutlery as table had been cleared even though we were sat there still, hot food was then cold, proceeded to go to the other end of the restaurant and booked more people in. Resulting in a cold breakfast! Not great!
Room was spacious, beds very comfortable, great bathroom, lovely toiletries, faculties provided in the room were very good. Lovely river view too. Modern style. Nice place to stay. Great pool too! Breakfast was good, nice selection of food , self service buffet style. Hot food not the biggest selection but plenty on offer all looked fresh and hot.

PolandSometimes a bit expensive. Dorsett Hotel which should be open next year should reduce the price of this Novotel. Breakfast could be better for such a great hotel. Quite often few days from a row fresh fruits were not available.
Great location - close to Canary Wharf and tube. Great selection of restaurants available from a 5-10 mins walk distance. Great view from the window. I have asked hotel reception about the accommodation at the highest floor and it was no problem at all for them. Great acoustic/sound protection. I really like Bōkan 38 Bar located at the top of the building especially in summer when you can enjoy great weather, music and the view. Pool and sauna also available for use.
