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):
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.
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.).

IrelandWe were given a room that was like a sauna, with no air. Our neighbour was sitting with the door wide open as it was so warm. When we said it to the reception, they said they’d send someone up to fix it. Someone came up with a fan and said this has been broken for a week or so, it was never going to be fixed today, can you just stay there. The heat was unbearable and fan just blew hot air around the room. We then went back down and they provided a new room which was spot on. The breakfast was lovely but it was a little bit slow getting food when it emptied out, staff were lovely.
The location was ideal, and also the breakfast was very nice. Eventually we got a lovely room too. The staff were very nice too.

LithuaniaRoom was not quiet: there was noise from the street. Also the room was located near auxiliary exit door (and for personnel "enter door" as well), so in the morning that door was slammed often. The room (single) is rather tiny. The shower cabin could not be closed fully -- a 2 cm slit remained. The electric kettle was broken. Though they managed to fix it somehow on my request. Tea bags were not replenished next day after room cleaning.
Good location, nice breakfast. Luggage can be left there at the checkout day

BelgiumI wanted to drink something in the bar of the hotel but on the Friday night they were closed at eleven already. The employees at the reception were polite but not very warm welcoming. It was business like and sec. The bathtub had marks of usage (the bottom of the bath was scraped). The bedhead was once made of leather but that leather was falling off from the bed, there were scratches on the wall and wallpaper cam off of the wall.
We didn't book breakfast so therefore I can't give any feedback about this. Location is great. You're basically staying over at the Kensington gardens and there's a very good connection with the Metro to the city.
