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.).

PortugalThe White Heaven Hotel was, without a doubt, the most hospitable hotel I have ever stayed in. From the very first moment, we felt genuinely welcomed. The breakfast was simply wonderful – extremely varied, fresh, and full of local flavours. Mr. Ismael, who manages the property, is truly remarkable. He helped us with everything we needed: arranging transfers to the airport and to the caves, and even recommending a fantastic local family-run restaurant, Oba Restaurant, which I also highly recommend – not only delicious but also very affordable. During our stay, he kindly offered us a beautiful magnet for the fridge and two glasses of local Pamukkale wine to taste. To our surprise, he even drove us personally to the travertines, which was such a thoughtful gesture. The hotel’s location is also excellent, within walking distance of the town centre and the travertine pools. I wholeheartedly recommend White Heaven Hotel – truly a five-star experience in terms of hospitality!

United StatesThe Front Desk clerk pressed us to book dinner or sightseeing thru him. We did not as they weren't good deals. He lined us up a taxi to the airport thru "a friend" and insisted we pay 200 Turkish Lira over the actual fare. The cabbie didn't even use his meter. In short, beware of the night Front Desk clerk!! (When we called the night before, same guy said no hotel shuttle was available, so we had to take a taxi there!)
I liked the location and the rooms.

CanadaThere is some important infrastructure issues in the hotel: the rooms are not well isolated for sound and you can hear other rooms. The worth part was that you can easily hear everything from the bathroom when someone else in another room use it including the toilet flush, and even worse, sometimes you smell the toilet of the other rooms in the morning which is actually very unpleasant. The breakfast was average with almost no variation during 10 days of our stay.
The major highlight of this establishment is actually the staff which were all very friendly, respectful and helpful. Overall it is a good hotel located in Fatih/Aksaray which is a very crowded popular area in Istanbul (not at all a touristic or quiet area). The hotel is situated in a bystreet within several several curtain and toggery massive sale stores, so busy and noisy during the day, but very quiet during the night. The hotel was very clean and we had no issue in this sense.

Saudi ArabiaBeautiful hotel, Quiet location, near all the attractions in sultanahmet, clean room and bathroom, helpful staff. However, only one of the receptionist could speak english which should be noted as its a 4 star hotel. Secondly, breakfast included was a huge let down the dining area was gorgeous but breakfast itself was very lacklustre. (Lacked variety) Thirdly, our room was on the 6th floor directly below the dining area so it was extremely loud in the morning which disturbed our sleep quite alot.
