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.).

BelgiumThe AC was a big ceiling fan. I was quite surprised at the beginning, but it was doing an excellent job of cooling down the room. So not really a negative point.
Cleanliness of the room. Perfect and silent location. The Basel travel card is offered to travel in OV for free during the stay. Early check-in at 2 PM was perfect for resting and working in the afternoon. Beautiful park around Close to Spalentor and Peterskirche

United KingdomThere was really nothing at all!
Lovely renovated rooms in a beautiful building. The buffet breakfast was excellent and the check-in staff were efficient and helpful. Our Basel cards were sent through by email before our arrival so we could use them as soon as we landed at the airport. The hotel is conveniently situated 5 minutes from the old town (at Spalentor) and on the no. 3 tramline.

In general a good hotel and quiet / central place to stay. They were very helpful and have "fishbags" (clothing bags) available in case you want to enjoy a swim / float in the river Rhine. Good breakfast.

BelgiumThe signage outside the hotel could be improved to make it easier to find.
Odelya - Stadthotel im Park is a fantastic choice for any stay in Basel. The staff is extremely helpful and informative. The restaurant recommendation we received from Reception was perfect abd we thoroughly enjoyed our traditional Swiss dinner. The rooms are spacious with good ensuite bathrooms. The breakfast buffet has a lot of very tasty choices. Two of the best things about the Odelya are its location steps away from the historic district and its beautiful park like settings with the extensive gardens. I will definitely return to this excellent hotel.

SpainThe restaurant is not open for dinner. If you need to iron they give you an iron and some sort of tablecloth but they do not give you the table so I had to iron in my bed, which was ok for a small blousse but if you have troussers I am afraid you will really struggle for ironing. The check out is a bit slow because they make you pay the city tax, if there is people doing the check out before you will have to wait, that really surprised me since all hotels nowadays charge you the tax together with the room rate.
Personnel at breakfast was super kind, they helped me with my special dietary requirement which I really appreciate. The heating was strong but you can regulate it or turn it off if you want. You can open the window, nowadays many hotels have the windows blockes which I find really annoying, but in this one if you need a bit of fresh air, you can have it. They offer small storage space but was sufficient for a few days. It seems that the property was something like a convent or something similar, which give a special environment that I liked. Anyhow it is fully renewed so confort meets good standards.
