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 reviewI spend about eight months of the year abroad, living in around 20 countries and regions, and staying at nearly 40 hotels. Because of this, I usually never bother to write reviews. However, I felt compelled to do so this time, as it is rare to encounter a place with the level of service, hospitality, and facilities that Hotel Oswaldo provides. The rooms are clean and compact, carefully maintained by the owner himself, who even handcrafts some of the furnishings. Since the owner lives on the premises, I never felt any insecurity during my stay—there was always a sense that guests are genuinely cared for. Breakfast was also prepared with great consideration for my allergies, showing a level of attentiveness on par with luxury hotels. Although the hotel is located a bit farther from my actual travel destinations, I would still choose to stay at Hotel Oswaldo again on my next visit.

The rooms were cozy, clean, and comfortable. I'm glad to have been able to find this rare gem in the sea of corporate establishments. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who's travelling to Budapest.

Location good for city centre, bit of a long journey for our need which was Grand Prix but we realised this when we booked and as the 3 day event went on we found easier routes, Very easy, quick, regular and cheap journey to airport! We loved the relaxing garden area to sit in (when we had the chance) PS Andreas showed my lads his lovely cool car, great

Verified reviewThe owner and staff are very nice and friendly, they are very helpful and cooperative. The hotel design and garden are attractive and comfortable for relaxation. What surprised me the owner is that the owner has collected a lot of information about my country before I arrived to shrare it with me which reflects how much he cares about his guests.
Nothing everything was amazing

Verified reviewOur host (Andraž) was the best host we ever had. He provided us with all the information we needed, even gave us a map of the tram line and told us where we can buy tickets and all the cool places to eat near the hotel. He even cooled our room before we got there (it was very hot that day). He instantly made us feel welcomed. And his dogs are just the cutest and well behaved. The room was nice and clean, it has a refrigerator, tv and also air con. The hotel has a parking space.

Verified reviewFantastic place, staff were friendly and helpful, The room was a lovely size, had a microwave and small fridge, Great connections into town. The court yard garden is attractive and lovely place to sit in the evenings. The garden and quiet street made it feel like it was in the country rather than Budapest.
Having to go home.

Verified reviewGreat hospitality of the owners. They are more than willing to help you find your way around Budapest, to recommend you a restaurant, where to go, what to see, how to get there. They even offered sheets and blankets to cover my car in case of a hail storm. The room was cozy and clean. There's refrigerator, TV, air condition in it. The bed is large and comfy, and there's also a couch. There was a huge wardrobe cabinet. The hotel is close to the Budapest downtown by car and I think by public transport, too. It is also close to a concert venue where we went, so it was in an ideal position for us.

Verified reviewThe room was clean, comfortable and secure. Andreas is a really charming, genial and informative host - he clearly loves his role and, as other reviews have suggested, goes out of his way to make visitors feel welcome. He also proudly introduced me to the improvements he is planning for the summer - beautiful plants & a water feature for the courtyard included!
Not a 'don't like' but a gentle warning. Oswaldo IS quite a trek out from the centre without a car, so you need to be prepared for this. But bus 151 a few yards from the door is regular and frequent & takes you the terminus of the Metro M3 line - from here as well as speeding smoothly into the city you can also catch a direct shuttle 200E to the airport.
Dear Paul, Thank you for your kind and useful review. Yes indeed, public transport is very well organized and takes 50-60 minutes to get to the city centre. In return for the journey, our hotel offers a quiet and beautiful environment for guests returning from the hustle and bustle of the city. I am glad you enjoyed your stay, I hope you will return.
