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 reviewStaff couldn't have been nicer, one in particular (sorry I dont know his name). Location was perfect. Room was spotless and modern.
Room was small. Hotel was expensive but but not in relation to others in the area. Barcelona is an expensive city.

Verified reviewIt was very clean. There was room service every day. The staff on front desk were very friendly and the front desk reception was 24 seven which was very convenient when we had to get our keys and give our keys before leaving we were travelling as a group of three and they had a room for three people with single beds, which was amazing and the beds were very comfortable. There was air-conditioning which was great and the location was good. They even have a locker in which we were able to store a stuff when we had to check out at 11 am.
The door between the bathroom and bedroom had a mirror around it and a bit of space. The door was a glass door so travelling with friends there wasn’t much privacy but besides that everything was clean and amazing.

Verified reviewHotel was very good, clean, staff very friendly. Beds were comfy, room temperature ok. Close to public transportation stops.
The hotel itself is located in a good place, but in 200m walking distance the narrow streets are dangerous especially at night.
Dear Paul, Thank you very much for rating us with the highest score. We're very glad to know you appreciated our facilities and services. We're located at the Eixample, one of the best areas of the city, but not too far from downtown, a neighborhood from medieval and roman times where the streets are narrow and darker; it's also a very crowded area with bars and discos. They're not dangerous, but we usually recommend our guests to avoid crossing those streets late at night and use the main avenues instead. Hope we'll meet you back soon. Best regards, Reception Team HOSTAL CENTRIC

Verified reviewI recently stayed at this 2-star hotel and it truly exceeded my expectations. The staff were absolutely wonderful – always helpful, kind, and welcoming. The location is excellent, just a short walk from the metro and other public transport, which made exploring the city very convenient. The hotel was spotless and offered a peaceful environment, perfect for relaxing after a busy day in Barcelona. The only small downside is that breakfast is not provided. However, there is a cozy corner with coffee, tea, water, and a vending machine with snacks, which was a nice touch. Overall, I was more than satisfied with my stay and will definitely choose this hotel again when I return to Barcelona.
