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 reviewAll the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was a good size and the bed was very comfortable. The range of food at breakfast was comprehensive and delicious. The rooms were quiet, despite the central town location.
The air conditioning was a little noisy on the first night and didn't work on the second. At breakfast, I would have loved some sliced tomatoes (French tomatoes are delicious!), and I would have liked toasted bread.

We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the comfort of your room, the quality of the bedding, the variety of our breakfast, and the calm atmosphere despite our central location.

Couldn’t control the air conditioner from bedroom. Air conditioner was a bit old fashioned, which wouldn’t be a problem but it’s made weird ringing noise every 3-4 minutes. Room it self was nice size but it bit dark. No fridge.

Rooms were dark - lighting poor even with all the lights on in the room it was hard to read anything. Carpet needed a deep clean. Needed a soap dish in the shower as there was no where to put things except on the floor.
Dear Madeline, Thank you for taking the time to share your recent experience in Saint Malo and at the Hotel Cartier with us, and thank you also for your review.

Verified reviewThe location is supreme. Inside the city walls and we were on the 1st floor overlooking the square where buskers perform most evenings. We loved it. Struck up a chat with one of them - David Kendal a refugee from the USA! Plays a mean octave mandolin. The vibe of the area was wonderful. Good dining in the immediate vicinity. Handy to the Ferry Terminal for our next stage to Guernsey. Just a short walk away at the bureau deTourisme and Bus pick up for the trip to Mont St Michel - shame about the weather but one can't beat bad luck! My wife was carrying an injury and the hotel reception manager was very helpful getting us a taxi to get us to the Ferry Terminal on time. Have waxed lyrical about the place to all of our friends.
There is very little not to like. The Manager was excellent and helpful at all stages of our stay.

The only reason it got a 9 for facilities was that the room was very, very small but very nice. I also liked that there was someone there 24/7
Room slightly larger.
Dear Ruth Ann, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. We are thrilled to hear that your stay was both elegant and seamless. It’s always our goal to provide thoughtful, attentive service; whether it’s arranging a taxi during a challenging time or preparing a beautifully presented early breakfast. We are delighted these touches helped make your visit memorable. We also appreciate your comment regarding the room size. As our hotel is located within the historic walls of Saint-Malo’s Intra-Muros, some rooms are indeed more compact due to the building’s original layout. For a future stay, feel free to contact us directly; we’ll gladly recommend a more spacious room depending on availability. Thank you again for your kind words, especially regarding our 24/7 reception service. It’s always a pleasure to be available for our guests at any time of day or night. We look forward to welcoming you again soon. Warm regards, Yannaëlle – Reception

Verified reviewBreakfast was delicious. The room itself was quite nice.
We were on the first floor and felt as though we could hear everything in our room. There was no white noise provided ( fans or A/C) to help combat the noise which was ongoing. Until after 12 pm and as early as 5 am. The room was warm and it made it difficult to sleep, fans or A/C would have helped.
Dear Storah, Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the room and appreciated our breakfast ; we aim to offer a great start to each day. We are sorry that noise and room temperature disrupted your rest. As the Hôtel Cartier is located in the heart of the historic and vibrant city center, some street noise can occasionally be heard, especially during busy hours. While this lively atmosphere is part of the charm of staying in the old town, we understand it may be inconvenient for light sleepers. Your comments regarding ventilation are noted and will help us improve guest comfort, particularly in warmer weather. Don’t hesitate to share your preferences before a future stay. We’ll do our best to accommodate you accordingly. We hope to welcome you again, Yannaëlle – Reception
