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...).

They really need to work on updating the rooms. A sitting area in the lobby was missing which for me is a big deal.
The location of the hotel is amazing. It's literarily in the heart of downtown Boston. Walking distance to all major landmarks, shopping, restaurants, etc.

There is free coffee available on the ground floor but would have liked this to be available in the room. Gym is also available but is really small and not much in it. Had to ask for shower gel to be replenished. Issue with air-conditioning in room which was resolved by a fan being brought into the room.
Excellent location and very easy to get to and from airport on the Logan Express. Staff were really helpful and always on hand when needed - notably fantastic customer service compared to other places. Rooms super clean.

Was there so briefly. Sort of wish there was something for breakfast. Would be willing to pay.
The Copley Square is a throwback to a genteel time, old-fashioned Boston. Rooms have a certain charm, not large but so comfortable. Bathrooms are spacious. Location couldn't be better. Excellent value.

Our tv didn't function, not a huge problem but it was a little annoying. No microwave in rooms only on first floor, understandable but when you want that late night fix you dont wanna go aaaall the way down.
All in all we had a great stay and time. Deep tubs, great walking distance to the event we were attending. Comfortable beds. Dont let the shorter paragraph fool you, its just easier to write negatives lol

In need of some updates in areas, our bathroom was very tight so could not fit 2 of us at once, but our sons room - bathroom was quite large so configuration, would expect is different in many of the rooms, - but not a deal breaker for us.
Beds extremely comfortable. Location is perfect to Back Bay and surrounding area, lots of restaurants nearby, especially the one accessible to the hotel which is separate I believe. Staff were welcoming and very pleasant. Bonus having hot coffee and tea available 24 hours. Will be back!
