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.).

AustraliaThe room I had was next to the street with big windows, the blinds at the top did not block out all the light and I’m very sensitive to light, was woken up by a bright room everyday. There were also lots of street noise that made it difficult to fall asleep. Inconveniently the room also had lots of stairs leading up to the room after the elevator, and to get to the elevator there were also some steps, so if you are travelling with big luggage be mindful of this feature
Delicious breakfast buffet with lots of variety Walked into the room with a puppy plushie on my bed and that was super cute! Bed was very comfortable and the room was neat and clean Great location in city centre, very convenient spot

EstoniaSome parts of the hotel were a bot worn off, maybe partially by design, given the style of the hotel. One of the elevators was very small and slow. I have to admit that the staff did their best to replace any items that happened to be in not good condition.
Location, breakfast and super helpful staff.It is also beautiful and full of interesting details in common areas and rooms.

United KingdomI would have given it straight 10 if it wasn't for the sleep. Just painful. Room next to me super loud, room above me tragic. Dragging things on the wooden floors until early AM. I was dying inside. I tried ear plugs, sleeping music to cover the noise etc. I was desperate.
Firstly, this hotel has some of the most amazing la belle epoque designs I've ever seen! Just stunning. You walk around in awe. My room was cute, super comfy bed, great views. Breakfast wasn't the busiest, so I was also lucky. Location amazing!

SwitzerlandThe elevator did not work the whole stay … 4 days … well. One has to opt-in online for cleaning the next day. At night sometimes loud from the music from the bars in the neighbourhood.
Second time we stayed in the Kung Carl. We love the Design, the room. Very well located. The The breakfast was often overcrowded, but you could get a seat at all times. Good choice. Staff in the hotel very friendly, at the breakfat from time to time a bit harsh.

United StatesThe only negatives were the noise that gets into the rooms and the curtains. It’s a noisy location, and unfortunately the sound enters the rooms. Earplugs and a white noise machine can help this. Last, in the summer, sunrise is around 4am…the curtains do blackout the areas they cover, but they did not cover the wall around the windows, so light still spilled in. Otherwise, it’s a great spot, the staff is nice and accommodating, and the rooms are gorgeous.
Beautiful hotel with lavish decor, beautiful bathrooms, beautiful beds and seating, and a great atmosphere. The location is convenient and upscale, the hotel architecture is elegant and includes an internal and external tower. The free breakfast is quite good, the views are nice, and the rooms feel artistic, lush, and luxury.

SwedenRoom billed as sleeping 4 with two beds was a queen with a sofa bed. The room - which apparently was upgraded at check in to a larger size - was so small that the gap between the sofa bed and main bed was only about 4 inches. Tight quarters for a family of 4!
Great location, very nicely appointed facilities. Breakfast buffet was expansive.

SwedenIt would be good if there were more international TV-channels to choose from, CNN and BBC, for instance. Breakfast was great but what could be added is some more fruit and baked beans.
This was the second time I stayed at this hotel, and the room with the balcony is absolutely lovely. There is a lot to choose from in the minibar and on top of that, free icecream, more than you could possibly eat. The staff is excellent and so is the location, right in the center of town. Go for room 213. It's very nice.

United KingdomStaff fell short in my opinion Dirty cups left in room after room service Asked for milk to be left in room. Bar staff made a note but never delivered Got to bar at 10.40 one night to be told quite rudely bar closed. 5 mins later reception confirmed bar open till 11 pm. When I pointed out the time and we couldn’t get served was told “it will be because they are cashing up” so really bar closed at 10.40. No effort made as residents to resolve
