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.).

Verified reviewI think this is the only hotel in Springfield because it was packed. It was a good location for the State Fair.
The rooms were not ready at 4:30 - they weren't ready until 6 PM! The area around the hotel was shady, it looks like a walking dead city. I can't believe the capitol of IL is that run down.
Dear Jaclyn, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad you found our location convenient for the State Fair and that you enjoyed the room. We appreciate your observations about the property and the surrounding area, and we will continue to consider ways to enhance the guest experience. We hope you had an overall pleasant stay, and we look forward to welcoming you back and impressing you with our ongoing improvements. Thank You, Hotel Team

The hotel is very old so renovations in some areas and furnuture are needed.

Verified reviewThe staff went above and beyond to provide exceptional hospitality. Their assistance with unloading my van and bringing all of my belongings to my room was completely unexpected and truly appreciated. They even refused to accept a tip for their help. Additionally, we had a wonderful experience with breakfast as the staff was very accommodating when they ran low on food at the buffet.
When we arrived on the first night and attempted to dine at the hotel's restaurant, there appeared to be a staffing issue. We were initially told that our party of eight could not be accommodated. While we were eventually able to work with the staff to secure a table, the wait for our food was extremely long.
Dear La Toya, Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're thrilled our team went above and beyond to assist with your arrival and that breakfast service was accommodating. We appreciate your patience with the restaurant delay and are glad it was ultimately resolved. Your feedback helps us improve, and we look forward to welcoming you back to President Abraham Lincoln Springfield - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel for an even smoother experience!

Verified reviewWe are very unhappy with this hotel. We had reserved for two nights, but my husband became very ill and we needed to leave a night early. He was admitted to the hospital with pneumonia. The hotel told me I needed to contact booking.com to adjust the charges. Booking.com contacted your hotel and the agent was told by the hotel they would not refund the second night’s charges. This is disgraceful and unforgivable; the staff was totally unkind and dispassionate.
Dear Mrs. Patricia, We're truly sorry to hear about your experience and, most importantly, about your husband's illness. We hope he is recovering well. We sincerely apologize if our response did not meet your expectations during such a difficult time. While our cancellation policies are in place to ensure consistency, we understand that unforeseen situations arise, and we regret that we were not able to provide a resolution that felt fair to you. We hope to welcome you back in the future under better circumstances. Thank You, Hotel Team
