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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

No restaurants close by so very limited options to eat, except the gas station next door or the bar in the hotel.
The hotel was what we expected and the location was where we needed for an event we were attending over the weekend. While it is not central and not the best location for tourist activities, the train is about 10 minutes walking and easy ride to Central Amsterdam.

Nothing to complain about. No problems with anything. An efficiently run hotel.
The hotel was warm and clean throughout. The staff were friendly, from reception to the maids cleaning rooms. The restaurant in the hotel was very handy, whilst only having a limited menu, there was still sufficient choices to choose from which arrived quickly and was certainly value for money. We found the beds comfy and the shower was excellent. The hotel was a bit out of the city but the local metro station was only a 15 minute walk away with regular trains running to and from the centre. Great choice of meats and pastries for breakfast.

Fire alarm at the morning was not plesent, nobody from the hotel staff did not organize the situation at all and everybody were unavare what is the situation. All of the guests were at the lobby or outside, hotel staff did not tell what is going on or how long we needed to wait or where we need to wait. Alarm in the end was false alarm but still I would have liked to be guided by the staff.
Nice hotel with all the necessery amedies. Hallways are bit worn but that otherwise clean hotel. Good for work related stay.

The location isn’t great. 15min walking distance to the nearest train station. Not much to do in the area. The cleaner left the cleaning spray and the towel in our room during our stay, which seems a bit unprofessional.
Very comfortable bed. The heating is on all the time.

We had the issue with double payment via booking.com. The hotel requested the payment a few days before the trip otherwise the booking would be cancelled. However, the payment process lead us to pay directly on the hotel’s website which seemed legit. Once we came to the hotel, they told us that they didn’t have any proof of that payment even though we provided multiple proofs of it, so we had to pay again. Luckily, we managed to get the money back the last day, but our stay was ruined. Another drawback was location, it’s very far from the city center.
Only the fact that it was a clean and big apartment, nothing else.
