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.).

SpainHello!! I travel there with my mom, and the hotel is great! It is located a few metres from the parliament, and we love the location. It is also like a 20-minute walk to the Opera and Albertinplatz, which is where many of the free tours start. As for the hotel itself, for us it is fantastic, the staff are very kind and helpful. Before our arrival, they contacted us because the hotel was under renovation and they wanted to offer us a change of room. I have no idea how the other room was, but we were placed in a mini apartment, which for us was amazing because this way we have more freedom with the meals, and we have a small kitchen!

IrelandBreakfast was expensive but good quality
Last week, we had 3 lovely days in Vienna, saw lots of sites and attractions. We had a very pleasant stay at Josefhof am Rathaus hotel, which we found always clean, and well run, with a large room and good bathroom facilities. The location was very central and convenient and close to the U Bahn and Trams. But although location was central the Josefgasse itself was nice and quiet especially at night. I would especially like to mention Hotel staff who were always very friendly and helpful. Every night we had a couple of beers at your bar and Hotel bar staff made us feel very welcome.

RomaniaOur stay at this hotel was truly wonderful. Everything was very clean, the team was polite and helpful, and overall the experience exceeded our expectations. Special thanks go to Magdalena at the reception, who was absolutely amazing (she helped us with every question we had, assisted with reservations, gave us useful tips, and was always so attentive and kind). We also traveled with our two dogs, and we were impressed by how pet-friendly the hotel was. Our pups were welcomed with their own little beds, food pouches, and special bowls. Such a thoughtful gesture that made us feel even more at home. Highly recommended, and we will definitely return!

PolandWe had such a lovely stay! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome. A sweet surprise of macarons was waiting for us in the room, which was such a thoughtful touch. The location was perfect: peaceful and quiet, yet just a short walk to Vienna’s main sights. Our room was spotless, nicely decorated, with a really spacious bathroom, a kettle for making tea or coffee, and fresh tap water that tasted great. We had a little problem with a towel hook falling off, but after we mentioned it, they fixed it the very same day. Such a quick and thoughtful response! The Wi-Fi and air conditioning worked great too, which made everything even more comfortable. After checking out, we were also able to leave our luggage at the hotel, which was very convenient.

United KingdomThe only negative was that we had a very small bath with a shower over. The1 shower space was so tight that it was almost impossible not to soak the floor. So showers were not very relaxing.
Fantastic location, very nice hotel, helpful and friendly staff.

GermanyI think it’s a bit too simple for a 4-star hotel, but I got it at a very good price so no complaints. I think the some of facilities in the room were a bit worn out.
The hotel is aesthetic, well located - not too central, not far from the main attractions and on a quiet little street. The surrounding streets are very sweet and it was nice to discover the little shops there. The staff were very nice and thoughtful, and the room was clean.

Czech RepublicWe stayed in a junior suite. In the moring on the day of our checkout, as I sat in the bed, a splashing and flushing sound could clearly be heard as if it was in my room. It was from behind the wall from another room or perhaps even the next building. Throughout our stay, the place was trully quiet, but that morning raised my brows.
Central location in Vienna, so sightseeing is easy on foot. Amazing breakfast. Friendly staff. Mostly very quiet.

United KingdomNothing other than the narrow space around the bed that we mentioned earlier.
Room was good, except bit narrow either side of bed. Breakfast was excellent, choice & quality superb. Breakfast prosecco was a nice added bonus. The staff were very attentive, polite & helpful. A particular mention to the reception staff Tomas & Maria who provided great service and were very helpful with recommendations of restaurants & nearby facilities.
