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.).

SpainThe breakfast is very generous, but you can't choose. If you stay more than one night, you'll get tired of eating the same thing all the time. I'd rather have a buffet.
Very good. Unbeatable location. The staff is super friendly and professional. Kadir, Fatih, Eckan, and especially Fátima are excellent professionals.

Loved this hotel, you can’t beat the location. The staff were super friendly & helpful. Room was large & the bed was so comfortable. We paid for a Turkish breakfast one day & it was incredible, so much food. The views from the restaurant & the Terrace are unbeatable, but it can get a little busy with all the picture taking at the bird feeding, but those views are just unbelievable. Highly recommend this hotel & I hope we get to stay again sometime in the future. I still dream about our stay there.

United StatesIt was a short birthday trip, but it left unforgettable memories — largely thanks to the hotel and its amazing staff. Special thanks to the receptionist Gerkan, who was extremely polite and friendly. He helped with early check-in, decorated the room, arranged a taxi, and assisted with small requests. All the staff were very warm and welcoming, especially Gerkan, Fatima, and Erhan. The hotel is located in the heart of the historic city, with all major attractions within walking distance. It’s a clean and cozy place with excellent service. A huge bonus is the rooftop restaurant, which offers delicious food and a stunning view — perfect for taking beautiful photos without even leaving the hotel.

New ZealandOn this visit, our room was in a new extended part of the hotel & the wifi was slow. This was not a problem last time we visited when we were in the main building.
The location is superb, a short walking distance to all the key sites in the Sultanahmet area (Blue Mosque, Ayasofya, Basilica Cistern & the Topkapi Palace. The view from the restaurant is exceptional. The staff are so friendly and helpful. We stayed here 2 years ago, and many of the staff were the same, so nice to see them again. Our room was large and comfortable.

United StatesThe only drawback is that the bathroom was a bit outdated and certainly is in the need of renovation. The plumbing was terrible. Water would sit in the tub for quite some time before draining.
The hotel is located in the prime neighborhood. 5 min walk to Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. Famous for it seagull feedings, the views from the rooftop restaurant are breathtaking. We stayed in a presidential suite with a huge balcony that had a glimpse of Hagia Sophia. Every morning I enjoyed a cup of coffee there and listened to the birds singing before heading for the grand Turkish breakfast at the rooftop. I must say the amount of food you get for two people is incredible. You can easily feed four with it. The room itself was spacious and the bed was comfortable. Very friendly and helpful stuff. Thank you, guys. I borrowed an iron and the maid let me keep it for our entire stay.

United KingdomThat we hadn’t booked for a longer stay.
From the moment we arrived we fell in love with this hotel. The staff are exceptionally charming and helpful…for example, my husband left his bag on the plane, we were tired after taking an overnight flight and the concierge immediately sprung into action, calling lost property at the airport, liaising with them in Turkish on our behalf…and again later in the day…until it was all sorted out. Just amazing customer service above and beyond what you would ever expect. All the staff were so warm and welcoming - a special hello to lovely Fatima who greeted me like a family member. The hotel itself is in an unbeatable location between the 2 main mosques and all the key sights of the historical district. The room itself was extremely comfortable with no attention to detail spared, fittings and bedding all good quality, we slept so well. We had dinner on the terrace one evening and the swordfish kebabs were just delicious. The cocktails were wonderful and staff extremely professional, friendly and helpful. We ordered the special breakfast one morning and it is a feast for the eyes and tummy. Definitely one for instagram fans too. I could go on and on about how wonderful this place is, but don’t take my word for it - see for yourself. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
