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...).

CanadaThere could have been a mat for feet in front of the sink. Would also appreciate glasses rather than plastic.
Check in was wonderful. We arrived early and Joanna was kind enough to check us in without additional charge. The room was small but very thoughtfully arranged to provide us with all the space we needed. The room was also very quiet.

Czech RepublicWe didn't find anything we didn't like.
The position of the hotel is great. near to the park, near to the Hudson River and just two blocks from subway station. The place is really quiet. Room was small but there was everything we needed. Plus nice view. There was coffee and Tee in the lobby for whole day. Stuff was great and helpful. Great place to stay if you are visiting New York and you need the place to sleep over and stay a couple of nights. You will not make a mistake if you choose this hotel.

PortugalThe couple bed is against the wall, which makes it difficult for one to use. There aren't nightstands. The room is small but it's okay if you travel with small luggage. There were some constructions on the street and during the night we could hear the noise.
The location is good, close to parks and subway. The hotel is recently renovated.

United States of AmericaTakes a long time to get to midtown, Chelsea from there. Room is not really big enough to spend any time in except sleeping. One of the two elevators worked only sporadically. Elevator is small. No continental breakfast and no decaf.
Bed was very comfortable. Small room, but had everything we needed and it was clean. Staff was very helpful and pleasant. Location was okay. Streets were clean and quiet. Safe neighborhood. Price was right. Coffee and tea available. They let us store our bags before checkin and after checkout... a big plus.

United States of AmericaThe system for getting the TV working was confusing for us low-tech types. Not the fault of the hotel, but there was overnight filming happening directly outside the window, with huge klieg lights shining in. More substantial curtains/shades would have been appreciated.
Excellent location at W. 80th and Riverside, just a few blocks from the 79th St. Metro (1 line). Extremely accommodating staff allowed us to check-in a bit early and also helped with extending the stay one night. Although small, the rooms appeared to have been recently remodeled, very well designed and good use of space, big window with view of Riverside Park and the river. Comfortable bed. Quiet. Very clean. Bathroom with water efficient features that worked well (including the shower). Unexpected and nice lobby area with plenty of tables and coffee/tea setup in the morning.

GermanyManager: The check-in process began positively with a helpful receptionist. However, the experience took a turn when the manager, speaking from the breakfast area, intrusively instructed the receptionist to charge me $50 for an early check-in, even though I only wanted to drop off my suitcase. After realizing I was not interested in paying the fee, the manager approached me directly and allowed early access to the room at no extra charge. This interaction felt rude and unprofessional. Room: The room lacks adequate soundproofing; noises from the adjacent rooms and corridor were clearly audible. Additionally, the room is quite small, making it challenging to move with a large suitcase for two people. The old windows do not seal properly, letting in drafts of cold air. This was particularly uncomfortable as the bed was positioned right next to the window.
Location: The property boasts an excellent location with a stunning river view, conveniently situated less than a five-minute walk from the subway. Room: The room is well-equipped with all necessary amenities and features a very comfortable bed, ensuring a pleasant stay.
