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 are 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 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.).

NetherlandsI felt the space could have been utilized better. There was very limited room to hang clothes and no drawers in either the bedroom or bathroom. And while I understand the no housekeeping policy during the stay, I would have liked the floor to at least start out clean instead of gritty. I also found it somewhat odd that the bedside lights could not be individually turned on and off. Another small glitch: the luggage lift was not working on the day we left.
The building itself was charming and the communication with the staff was great. They were very helpful and accommodating. The Dyson hair dryer was fantastic.

The is an immense attention to detail. From the snacks, water, extra towels, makeup remover, tv instructions, bathrobes and Dyson hair dryer just to name a few. The management is clearly well traveled and has identified important amenities for guests.

CanadaI didn’t realize that interior rooms were windowless, but that is on me. Just a warning.
A new personal standard for a hotel. The Russel has its own character, with tons of charm. The common spaces are exceptional, amenities are exceptional, the rooms are exceptional.

United StatesLoved it!
We decided to stay at The Russell after leaving a nightmare Airbnb stay. What a great choice that was! As soon as we pulled up to The Russell, we were awed by it’s former church structure, and the sorbet-tinged country vibe of its interior design. We also loved that our stay contributed to meals and accommodation to Nashville’s houseless population. In short here is what we loved about The Russell: Aesthetic Location Cleanliness Customer Service Bed We will definitely stay here again!

United StatesThis is probably my bad….. we were in room 3:3 which had a skylight to the lobby. I didn’t know you could close a curtain over the skylight; so the first night was a bit rough with the lobby lighting coming in overhead. In hindsight, I should have texted the hotel staff during the night (they are available 24/7), and they would have solved my problem right away.
Loved the location and the repurposed church as a hotel while keeping the architectural elements.
