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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do 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 or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

I made the mistake of asking for a room with a window that opened. This request was granted but, little did I know , that this would put us right next to the elevator and a deck that was access for hotel employees to reach items they needed. Thus lots of noise from elevator and employees. Also, beds in this hotel are extremely hard.
This hotel is in a great location. The hotel is very clean and the staff very friendly.

Our main disappointment came from the room itself though… Most times when being in the room you could smell drainage and the air conditioning didn’t really work. This wasn’t great and kind of ruined the experience especially it being our engagement trip. The images that advertise the room do not represent what the room whatsoever so for the price it was very disappointing.
Very central, perfect location for exploring the city… Staff were so helpful and friendly. Allowed us to keep our cases and bags before check in and check out! Loved how the hotel was attached to a lovely cafe and the hotel served refreshments to help yourself to every morning. The bed was also very comfortable.

The carpet in the hallway was old and dirty and there was a musky smell. Out of place in quite an expensive hotel (we paid about $300 per night for a balcony room).
Location was fantastic. We wanted to be in the Gotic Quarter and near Port Vell. The street seemed bohemian but very safe and QUIET at night. We walked everywhere from there. Fabulous restaurants nearby including 2 excellent Tapas bars across the street (need reservations!) and a great breakfast place on the corner (cheaper and better than breakfast in the hotel). Comfortable rooms and beds. New decor and bathroom and nice little balcony (you pay extra for a balcony room but I recommend it) We spent 7 nights here and really had a wonderful stay.

Only real problem was the plumbing! Other reviewers had mentioned bad smells: we dealt with the nasty smell from the shower drain by running the shower regularly and leaving the extractor on. However, the toilet stopped working on two days, which needed attention before it would flush. It's an old building but improvement to the plumbing would be wise! The location means there will be noise at night: we expected it, but if you want peace and quiet all night you might be happier elsewhere.
Location was superb - for our needs, with great tapas bars very close by, short walk to metro stations and Ramblas. The hotel staff were very friendly and responsive to our questions and problems (see below). Whole hotel was very clean and attractive, overall a good stay for a few days.

Bathroom doors are frosted glass, not super private if that sort of thing matters to you.
Perfect location in the Gothic quarter for 5 min walk to the port and then another 5 mins through the port to the beach and Barceloneta. Born is about 5 to 10 mins the other way. 15 mins through the pedestrian Gothic quarter to Plaza Catalunya.

Nothing. It is a good hotel, reasonably priced and a safe feel. There are few restaurants in Carrer Ample, so you can eat near the hotel or stroll to the old town in no time. Feels like home.
Location is off the main drag of the centre, but in a side street near a large avenue. Transport good and easy to navigate on buses and metro, meaning you can easily get a bus to Ramb;a if you want and move around the neighbourhoods at will.

The rooms are really small. We could not fit our luggage anywhere as there were no space in the room. Impossible to pass each another in the room unless one of ours has to squeeze somewhere. There was hot water shortage one day for a couple of hours also the elevator broken down frequently during our stay.
Hotel location was excellent. Very close to the beach, right at the center of the gothic quarter. Easy to walk all the touristic attractions and easy to reach public transportation.

Unfortunately the Aircon wasn't working in the rooms so they were very warm! We were given a fan which helped a lot but it's the only downside to a wonderful stay.
A wonderful location with fantastic staff willing to help in any occasion. The welcome drinks, marshmallows and nuts were a welcome bonus too! The hotel has great amenities and the beds were comfortable, rooms a decent size and the shower was top notch! Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to be in a great location for Barcelona.

We did put the aircon on but it didn't seem to do anything. If the weather had been any warmer it would have been a bit stuffy in the room.
We had a really nice room with a balcony. The bathroom was a really good size and the dressing gown a nice edition.
