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.).

Title: Very Disappointing Stay – Not Recommended We booked one room for 4 people through Booking.com, but upon arrival, the hotel insisted we pay for an additional room for 2 people. This was never mentioned during booking and felt like a scam. Security was extremely unwelcoming and overbearing. They followed us around the hotel, even while sightseeing, and did not allow us to visit each other’s rooms. The swimming pool closed at 3 PM, which made it useless for us when we actually needed it. The atmosphere seemed more for political gatherings than for genuine hotel guests. The room had an offensive odor and was not clean at all. Only the food was decent, but everything else was disappointing. I will never return to this hotel and do not recommend it to anyone seeking a comfortable and respectful stay.
Dear Mr. Mohamad, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We sincerely regret that your stay did not meet expectations and that you encountered several issues during your visit. We understand your frustration regarding the room arrangement and the additional charges. While our intention is always to ensure guest comfort and safety, we recognize that any miscommunication during the booking process can lead to inconvenience. We are currently reviewing our coordination with Booking.com to ensure room occupancy details are clearly communicated to avoid similar situations in the future. Regarding your comments about our security team, we are truly sorry that their presence felt intrusive. Their role is to maintain a safe and respectful environment for all guests, and we will reinforce training to ensure their approach remains courteous and discreet. We also apologize for the early pool closure and any inconvenience it caused. Your feedback will help us reassess our facility hours to better align with guest needs. Cleanliness and room condition are top priorities for us, and we are disappointed to hear that your room did not meet our standards. We have shared your comments with our housekeeping team for immediate review and corrective action. While we’re glad you enjoyed the food, we deeply regret that the overall experience was not satisfactory. Your feedback is invaluable, and we are committed to making the necessary improvements to ensure a more welcoming and comfortable stay for all our guests. We hope you might consider giving us another opportunity in the future to provide the level of hospitality we strive for. Best Regards Ghassan Dalal Country General Manager - Iraq & Turkey
