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 AmericaThe shower didn't have the best water pressure. There was no microwave in the room so that wasn't great. I wished there was better breakfast options.
We loved the room the view was great. And we loved the little sitting nook. The pool was beautiful and my kids loved it! The location of this hotel was perfect for our trip! We could walk to the aquarium and the baseball game.

United States of AmericaAlthough the housekeeper was very nice, she could not speak or understand English. My room did not have hand soap, or decaf coffee, I saw the housekeeper on the floor asked her for both she had no idea what I was talking about, so I called the front desk and they had someone bring up the bar of soap. Other than that everything was okay.
The hotel clerk, valet and entire staff were friendly and accommodating.

United States of AmericaOur room was close to the elevator, and it was very noisy. Fortunately, we requested a room change, and they accommodated us right away.
The hotel is nice and the location is convenient. It's right in front of the harbor and very close to the convention center, other hotels, and restaurants.

United States of AmericaI was a bit disappointed that there wasn’t a microwave to heat my leftovers. I really could have used a heat lamp in the bathroom.
The room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was spacious as well. I like that it had a comfy chair to sit and read my book with lighting. It was peaceful and quiet on my floor and the room.

Brittany was an exceptional front desk clerk. Every single person was caring and helpful. The restaurant was not what we were looking for. Beautiful accommodations. Weather did not cooperate but we were able ro enjoy the pool and hot tub yoga w Suzanne was also a great boost for us. Had an amazing stay. Thank you to the staff of the Royal Senesta and the good people of Baltimore.
