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.).

I was surprised at checkout to be charged for room servicing. We had not asked for this to be done, but it was and the reception dropped the charge when they understood our surprise.

Verified reviewSpacious apartment with well-equipped kitchen. Good location near Tower Bridge, although it gets a bit crowded during summer weekends. Friendly and helpful staff.
River view does not necessarily include the Tower Bridge. The hotel is in U shape, and from our apartment only HMS Belfast and the Shard were visible.
Dear Zbigniew, Thank you for your kind feedback. I am so pleased you enjoyed the space, location, and well-equipped kitchen, as well as the friendliness and helpfulness of our team. I understand your comment regarding the river views. As our building is U-shaped, some river-facing apartments look out towards the Shard or HMS Belfast, while others feature direct views of Tower Bridge. For your next visit, we would be very happy to help you select an apartment with the exact view you prefer. We truly value your comments and hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to Cheval Three Quays for another enjoyable stay. Kind regards, Kate Fletcher General Manager

Not only is it located near all the most beautiful tourist attractions, but it also offers a perfect blend of modern luxury and contemporary elegance. The atmosphere makes you feel both relaxed and indulged. The staff were outstanding—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Room service was prompt and exceptionally professional. Overall, it was a remarkable experience that exceeded my expectations.

Verified reviewGreat location, nice rooms. Front desk staff was very nice and helpful.
My dryer did not work in my room but the front desk tried to send maintenance but that still didn’t fix it. To make it up, they upgraded my room on my last night so I could get a room with a washer and dryer so I did appreciate that.
Dear Alvin, Thank you for sharing your feedback. I am delighted to hear you enjoyed the location, the apartment, and the friendly service from our Front Office team. I am sorry the dryer was not working during your stay, though I am glad the team was able to assist and offer you an upgrade to make things more comfortable.

The cleanliness was not at all up to the usual Cheval standard. This property lets the brand down. The headboard of the bed appeared to be bloodstained. I had a member of staff barge into the apartment without knocking.

Verified reviewFor a hotel, it sure feels like your own condo overlooking the Thames. The extra space in the rooms makes the experience really comfortable. The washing machine was really welcome after a few days of travel. The kitchen was well-equipped. Our go-to stay in London these days. The easy accessed combination of tube, bus routes (and even river ferries) makes it a convenient location too.
Dear Robert, We are delighted to hear that your stay felt like a home away from home and that you enjoyed the space, comfort, and amenities of the apartment.

Verified reviewThe kitchen was well-equipped, and the bed was comfortable.
The worst thing was the location of the hotel. While it is a good spot for exploring East London, the traffic on the roads leading to the hotel was really bad, making it time-consuming to travel by car. Additionally, the dining table and chairs were bar table and high chairs, which was a bit uncomfortable.
Dear Soojung, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay with us. I am delighted to hear that you found the kitchen well-equipped and the bed comfortable. While we unfortunately do not have control over the traffic conditions in central London, we hope that our prime riverside location provided convenient access to many of the city’s attractions and helped make your visit enjoyable. We also appreciate your comments regarding the dining table and chairs, and we will certainly take this into consideration for future improvements. It would be our pleasure to welcome you back again in the future. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back again soon. Kind regards, Kate Fletcher General Manager
