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...).

The room was cute and clean, the building is old so the interior was dated. I liked to old feel though! Beds were big and soft.

CanadaWould recommend music piped out to pool area. The air conditioning system was quite loud out there. Some music might help mask the other sound . Didn't like all the construction noise outside,but that is not something the hotel has control over. It will be really nice once completed.

United States of AmericaI guess I wasn't dressed appropriately while checking in, and was given dirty looks by folks checking in also. Was told to take the elevator at the opposite end of the hotel, lugging all of our luggage, despite figuring out we were directly above the desk, and could have taken the closer elevator. I also found out what 275sqfeet actually looks like. Our view was a concrete building, but could see tower of America's right above it.
The hotel is gorgeous, and full of history. It is in the middle of everything, and didn't have to walk far for anything needed. We locked ourselves out of the room at one point trying to buy some water out of the vending machine, and was asked 20 questions to get back into it lol They sent up free champagne for out anniversary 💙💙

AustriaBecause of the age of the building you can use heating only in the winter. If you have bad luck with weather it’s cold.
Beautiful, charming, historic hotel. Nice pool area. Great location, close to Alamo and River Walk.

United States of AmericaThe bathroom in the room is extremely small. We couldn't both be in there at the same time. If you set on the commode, the sink countertop stabbed you in the back. The temperature of the water would go from extremely cold to extremely, extremely Hot while taking a shower.
The location was convenient. The valet personnel were very prompt. The historical information was a great experience. The room was nice and clean.

United KingdomDue to the location it could get very noisy around the hotel at night. My room had some clearly older features, for example, the shower fittings which made it hard to control the water temperature.
