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 reviewThe hotel was nicely located, with plenty of good restaurants and grocery stores nearby
The cleaning was very poor—rooms were not vacuumed and only lightly wiped. The staff, including reception and cleaning, were not friendly or welcoming. Breakfast was okay, but overall the service and cleanliness left much to be desired.

Not enough staff on. Know one to greet you on arrival, one person looking after the bar and the dining area.

Verified reviewThe location for out trip meant this hotel was perfect for one long day of travel, a stop, and then carry on our journey to Clermont Ferrand.
When we arrived after a long day drive, there was no one on reception. After waiting too long we were shown to our room which was not appropriate for my family. There was no cot - even after getting multiple emails and messages saying there would be one. I had to go find a baby cot myself. The room was awfully small. The staff were the most unhelpful I have come across.

Verified reviewFree water station on every floor with carbonate water. A/C works fine. Curtains that allow dark rooms at night. Desk space to work. Good internet speed. Free parking onsite (at least for us). Restaurants that are open late are close by (but you need a car to drive to them).
Shower water pressure is not the best, but temperature control works fine. Bed is okay, but a little springy. Location was good for us (with a car), but probably not for most people without a car. About a 15-minute walk to RER Line B.

Verified reviewStaff was lost and rude. They couldn’t find my reservation, made us wait over an hour in the lobby because they didn’t want to give us a room, and weren’t nice overall. There is no water in the rooms, 0 facilities.
Dear Sir, Thank you for taking the time to share your impressions of your stay with us. It is a great disappointment for us to read that your experience was unfortunately not up to standard. Please be assured that your comments have been shared with our management and the relevant teams. It sometimes happens that Booking reservations are not transmitted correctly in the system, so it is necessary for reception to find the reservation or contact customer service in order to be able to add the reservation. This also implies finding availability with the right room category, which is not always easy depending on the occupancy of the establishment. We're sorry this happened to you. Every day, we instill in all our teams a sense of courtesy, goodwill and availability, and we are sincerely sorry that our staff did not demonstrate the professionalism that usually characterizes them. For ecological reasons, we do not provide bottled water in our rooms. However, a carafe is at your disposal in your room, and fountains are freely available on each floor of the hotel, allowing you to help yourself to still, chilled or sparkling water. We hope that despite your disappointment, you will give us a second chance to prove to you our commitment and professionalism so that we can offer you a stay worthy of our establishment.
