How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Even though we stayed for just one night, as we had an overnight layover in Vienna, we really enjoyed the time spent in this hotel. The staff was very kind and helpful, the room was clean and ok in size for a couple. Though it takes a about 20 min walk to get to the city center, the surrounding area of the hotel is more than ok, looks good and it's quiet in the evenings. We will definitely be staying there again next time we are in Vienna.

It's literally perfect. Almost dead centre in Vienna, very direct public transport access, extremely close to Rochusmarkt, which is a small market with lots of shops and bakeries and U-bahn connectivity. Wien Mitte, the station where you'll probably get off the airport train, is only a few minutes away. Perfect for walks in Vienna's historical/touristic centre. The room itself is decently sized, cosy and comfortable. The staff are friendly and helpful. In addition, magdas aims to be a socially and environmentally responsible business, which I really appreciate! They upcycle and employ people in difficult social situations, which makes me feel good about staying there.

If I could give one remark that would make it an 11/10 - I would say a coffee machine in the room.
We had a fantastic stay at Magdas hotel. We slept very well in the comfortable beds, the staff was super friendly and the location was perfect in the third district - close to downtown but very quiet at night. Would definitely recommend!

Our room opened to the courtyard, and sometimes the noise coming from the restaurant balcony wasn't really comfortable
The hotel is very well located and clean. We really liked it's special style. We also liked that we could have rented bicycles from the hotel, that was a very convenient way of discovering Vienna There are many nice restaurants nearby, and, if you are interested in local street food, the market in about 400 meters is your place to be

I loved this hotel, even before I learned it was socially conscious endeavor, which I very much appreciated. It felt like a green oasis when I arrived and I immediately felt a cozy, inviting, welcoming energy. I loved the international staff who were knowledgeable and professional, and the food was excellent. My son is vegetarian so we were very pleased with all the excellent vegetarian options. I highly recommend it and will definitely stay there again if I return to Vienna!

A very comfortable place, in so many ways, in a very good location (close to the centre, but not in a touristy area). As good as e.g. MotelOne but with an excellent ethical purpose.
