Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

CanadaIt was one of the best decision I made to book the luxury king size bed sea view room for my mother. I booked this while mother arrived in Istanbul Airport and I was in Canada far from her. Phone call conversation with hotel costumer services was the best quality ever. I felt the care, trust and respect that was the moment I knew my mom is going to have the most peaceful and lovely experience. I am happy I. An confidently say it absolutely was. Customer Service responded to my phone call very quick and answered all my questions patiently and politely. They welcomed my mother with so much warmth and respect. They also supported my mother even in midnight to arrange phone charging converter for her cell phone to be connected with us. My mother loved this hotel. The quality and cleanliness was stunning. One of the most peaceful time that could happened for our Mom. Breakfast was awesome. The location was amazing near Taksim square and night life. Next time my sisters and I will join my mother again at Sofitel Hotel. This time for bigger room reservation which is suitable for 4 people for sure. Thank you Sofitel Hotel Staff team for giving the best peaceful and joyful time to my mother. We will see you soon again!

United States of AmericaSewer smell, not clean, not comfy bed.
Property is way over priced, not 5 stars level it’s like 4, disgusting Sewer smell in bathroom and hallway. They don’t clean very well just surface cleaning. Breakfast small buffet not like other hotels in Turkey. Very small gym ( even though they have plenty of empty hallways around it for nothing. The only one thing going on for them is the location.

My experience was exceptional from start to finish. The rooms were beautifully appointed with excellent amenities, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure every need was met. Plus, the breakfast spread was simply amazing. Highly recommend for a luxurious and comfortable stay in the heart of the city.

Saudi ArabiaThis nice well-managed hotel is right in the middle of the Taksim action. Just walk out the door into 24/7/365 touristy hustle bustle. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Mr. Tufan Yucel at the front desk upgraded us and gladly acceeded to our request for late check out. On our floor, Mr Erkan Karaca was superb. The facility is modern and newish. Breakfast was great, with good variety and friendly service. Metro station is stone's throw, from where you can get to all the other key parts of town, such as Sultan Ahmet, and the ferry docks if you want to go the Asian side or just want to sail up the Bosphorus. Also from the metro station you can go to the upmarket northern part of Istanbul.

IndonesiaWhen we checked in the bathroom is out of shower gel and we asked for it. They gave us a full bottle of shower gel and so we put it on the floor. The day after, after the house keeping cleaned our room, the shower gel bottle is still on the floor.
Right in front of Taksim square though its a bit noisy but its okay. The room is very spacious and the breakfast is also good.

SingaporeWe had 4 rooms. The beds on the 5th floor - mattresses were not so good. 6th floor much better. Housekeeping did not replenish some necessities. Also did not give a Sofitel ( higher end Accor ) property feel.
Location - convenient for Taksim metro - Uber - or walk Does not have a crowded feel Bar and terrace was nice though the view is marginal as it's more inland.
