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 reviewFantastic location literally 5 min walk from Paddington train station and underground, very clear instructions on how to access. Room has all the mod cons you would expect including kettle and microwave. Shower was very good.
Really at this price point you cannot complain. The room is small and could have benefited from a few shelves.

Verified reviewThe staff were very helpful. We were moved to an upper floor halfway through our stay as the basement appartment was very noisy from the guests above moving around. The staff responded to our concerns promptly. We were provided with a fan when the aircon upstairs wasn't working. The property is a short walk from Paddington station and Hyde Park, which we found really convenient.
Our original appt was in the basement, which had no windows. The noise from the guests above was very loud. The aicon on the upper floor didn't work.

Verified reviewThe location was so good, close to different tube stations, one block away from Paddington Station. Shops and restaurants everywhere and open until late hours too. Would definitely be back here.

Verified reviewPerfect location. Very good communication with staff. Clean and spacious room.
Our room was on the ground floor, facing the street and just next to the main entrance door. It was really noisy! We could hear the noises from the street and every time someone would go in and out the building (there are around 12 apartments in the building!) the main door would slam loudly and the noise and even shaking was hear and felt at our apartment.

Verified reviewLocation was great, very close to Paddigton station.
Soundproofing was terrible, our neighbours' kid woke up screaming before six AM two days in a row and we were unable to continue sleeping. It was like they were screaming next our bed. When I asked the hotel staff to do something, extremely rude staff member told me to handle it myself. So staying here is kinda neighbor lottery, if you have quiet neighbours - good hotel with great location, if you don't, your holiday might be ruined. Rooms were quite clean, but for example TV remote was filthy.

Verified reviewFor London, quite big rooms around 20 square metre . with a good kitchenette, good sized refrigerator that was very quiet, a sofa, plenty of room to move about. A window that opened, quiet, and great air conditioning that ran very quietly. Easy walking distance to Paddington station and Marylebone only 15 minutes walk away.
There really wasn’t anything to complain off. Bathrooms are small but functional with a great shower. Bathroom cabinets are looking VERY tired and probably should be replaced.

Verified reviewRoom in the lower ground and with dirty water running directly at the wall outside. Some chemicals from cleaning service get inside through a hole in a window, smelling like in a swimming pool.

Verified reviewShort distance from Paddington station and easy access to the Underground. Secure outer and apartment doors. Studio apartment was well appointed and had good amenities.
I did not like the online check-in to receive the door code. I have received fake messages before through the booking.com message system, some of which asked for credit card details and were flagged to me by the venue as hacks, so when I was asked to click a link and enter my credit card details (again) and passport details I was very suspicious. I did not like this at all and it felt very insecure.

Verified reviewThe location was great.
The "building" next door (shared wall) is an ACTIVE CONSTRUCTION SITE. Non-stop jackhammering from M-F, 8am-5pm.
Wish you had informed us about the noises during your stay so we asked the neighbours to stop. We could have offered a flat change or moved you to our other hotels.
