Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

LebanonThe place is quite small, but expected for a room on a boat. Also the location is a 10 mins walk from amsterdam central and a 20 mins walk from dam square. In the winter this could be challenging as the bus schedule in amsterdam is a bit messy (at least to the boat's location). But overall no problem at all i loved the place, i would recommend it to any tourist:)
I loved how friendly hank(the host) was. He was always very responsive and helpful. Everything we needed was available, very cute and cozy place inside. I loved the views around the boat, i enjoyed very much my night walks back to it. Very safe neighborhood.

Amazing experience, I never thought staying on a boat would be so cozy and comfortable but it was and way more! We read some great things about the hosts, Hank & Onnu, and they really are all that. We were worried it was going to get hot during summer with no air con, but it was actually really chilly at night and great to snuggle in the blankets. Overall will definitely stay here again when we visit in the future

United States of AmericaNothing comes to mind. 
Sleeping on a boat was a unique experience for us. Our hosts were wonderful; they provided us with excellent guidance on dining, entertainment, sightseeing, etc. And they were good people, too.  the whole experience was really charming and different than anything we’ve ever experienced.  The location is really very hard to beat. The accommodations were snug but very comfortable. Great bathroom, but small, as you’d expect.

Host was awesome with his communication leading to our stay as well as local knowledge, on top of just being a lovely, friendly fellow. Loved the location- we walked everywhere, as well as from & to Amsterdam Centraal station.

IrelandSuch a great location, just a short walk along the canals to central but in a nice, quiet area. The boat was absolutely perfect and exceeded my expectations. It was so charming, very sweet, comfortable and cosy. The hosts, Hank and Unno, couldn’t have been any more welcoming. I would recommend this boat to anyone coming to Amsterdam and we’ll definitely be back to stay again 😊

UkraineThis is a super cute and cozy ship. Yes, the room is small but that's not a problem. Ideal for a romantic weekend. Special thanks to the owner of the ship Hank. He's just a wonderful conversationalist. He made our holiday by organizing a birthday party and boat trip around Amsterdam. I advise everyone to have this experience to live on a ship. It's very, very romantic.
