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 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):
- 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.).

Stairs were very steep & large bags were difficult to get up to our room. There wasn’t really a reception area, you had to buzz for a staff member when you needed info/help. Got the impression they may have been a little under-staffed that weekend.
Amazing location with view of the high street pedestrian precinct very close to the Castle, bars & restaurants. Large comfortable room & large bed. Manager was happy to mind our bags on check-out day before we departed.

Noisy neighbourhood due to a nightclub very close to the house. Before 1am the music shut down. The street where the house is located was very dark.
Quite new forniture and bed. Building old but fine. I did a late check-in but I got all the info and assistance to get in although there’s no reception at that time. Very easy.

The only thing we did not like about the room was the sofa in the the seating area, it was old and tired. It would be nice to have a new sofa there the next time we visit.
The location of this hotel is great. The room was excellent and Lajos was very friendly and helpful. Lots of good restaurants and coffee shops in a walking distance.

The breakfast was quite simple. No eggs , few options of bread. if you want a great breakfast, it is worth to have it in a cafeteria around the hotel.
Great location, The room was excellent – it was spacious, cozy, had a good view, and was quiet and clean.

Breakfast wasn’t great. We were happy with the set up of self service but there were quite a few items not available yet advertised (no crumpets, bagels). And the bread and croissants were stale.
Great location, spacious family room and really comfy large beds. Very quiet - we didn’t hear a sound and we overlooked the main shopping street (there is double glazing now which has clearly worked so ignore reviews about noise).

Not the properties fault, but the night we stayed, people were partying on the street until we’ll past 3:30 am. So, if you are a light sleeper bring earplugs.

As we were checking in late we needed codes to get in after hours these were not sent until the end of the office day which meant if there was an issue we wouldn’t have been able to contact the staff easily. Could the codes we emailed earlier in the day if you know we are going to be late ?
The room was well appointed with a couch as well as a bed a little coffee/tea making area and an area for the kids beds. The bathroom was large. We could store our bags.
