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...).

United States of AmericaBeing from the Midwest, the way breakfasts were handled was kind of confusing. Food was good but found the process overly complicated.
Location was awesome. Easy access. Parking used in a prior trip was a life saver.

SwitzerlandLoud AC in the room, insufficient light in the room, poor coffee machine, way too much plastic at breakfast, surprise daily extra fee of $32 (it could be redeemed for food but they took the whole coupon to cover a $10-20 breakfast, which was mediocre at best).
Friendly and flexible staff except in the Japanese Steakhouse where they were cold. The hotel staff promptly moved me from a room in the pot-smelling 14th floor to a smoke-free top floor when I complained about the smell. Good location.

United States of AmericaThe fact they charge a $32 destination fee that you can use for breakfast or restaurant there. However, I wish I was not charged for that since I went for conference and did not need any meals at the hotel. So the daily charge of $32 was a waist of money for me. I did not know about this charge ahead of time. Also, there is a tax charge on top of the $32 that booking.com did not compute in the final price. So, when I checked out, I paid more than the final price given by Booking.com when I made the reservation.
Nice size room. Good location to go to the Harvard University grounds.

United States of AmericaI didn’t like paying $45 per day to park… it would seem that if we’re a guest there, we should at the very least get a discount on parking. Giving me a voucher to cover a sub-par breakfast buffet didn’t really ease the “pain.”
The rooms were comfortable and it was close to our event (at Harvard).

United States of AmericaSorry, I can't think of any shortcomings. I will happily stay at the Courtyard again.
Unexpected meal coupons paid for breakfasts. The self-service offerings for breakfast were diverse and tasty. The room was well supplied with electrical outlets, both 120V and USB. The bed was comfortable, and although the room gave a nice view of the river and therefore overlooked Memorial Drive, the street noise was virtually inaudible.
