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.).

Verified reviewBedroom was clean and the bed was comfortable
Our room was facing the big road construction intersection. Big cranes and broken cable stones was the view. I asked if our room could be changed, the young man at the seat had no effort to look for another option.
Dear Nahide, Thank you for sharing your feedback. While we’re glad to hear you found the room clean and the bed comfortable, we are very sorry about the service you experienced when requesting a change. You received a room on the 6th floor with a wonderful view over the roofs of Basel. Indeed, when looking directly down to the street, there are works and machines, but we allocated you one of our best available rooms precisely to minimize noise from the construction area. We are sorry that this did not meet your expectations. Unfortunately, at the time of your request, our colleague felt that this was the best room that could be allocated to you in order to provide the most pleasant stay possible. We wish you a nice travel though Europe, and stay at your disposal for any further information. Best regards, Cécile - Front Office Manager

wireless was open and i was dumb to connect - got hacked(not kidding). (doesnt ask for room number or last name). room was clean - but tiny like a pod :!
Dear Saravana, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your stay. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the location, food options, and cleanliness. We would like to provide some clarification regarding the room you booked. Your reservation was indeed for a double room for 2 adults. At the time of check-in, you arrived with an 11-year-old child without informing us in advance. We did our best to accommodate you with a room suitable for 3 people We are very surprised to read about the Wi-Fi concern, as we do not recall having discussed any such issue with you during your stay. Our Wi-Fi is a closed network that requires a personal connection with a username and password. We wish you had informed us at the time, as our team would have been happy to assist you immediately. It is important for us to receive feedback while our guests are still on-site, rather than learning about issues almost a month later. Kind regards, Stéphanie Reeb Manager

One minor detail but of no real importance to me : as I was traveling with my bicycle, there was no garage to store it, so I had to take the bike in the room

Regarding your comment about bicycles: we would like to inform you that we can store bicycles safely in the basement during your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back to Basel soon.
