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...).

Parking was pretty expensive ($40 per night for 6 nights, or $50 for 1 night) but the valets were good and I was always able to park and retrieve the car from the drive at the front of the hotel.
Location, ability to park outside (for a price), large rooms, clean, friendly staff.

Some bedsheets had stains, the in room coffee maker didn’t come with any coffee filters, and the was wallpaper ripping from wall. The room temperature was set to 55° but it felt like 80. Also hotel staff explained no information to me upon payment and receiving the room key, I had to ask for basic information such as floor and room number and facilities the hotel offers.
Awesome location and views.

I didn't like that there was no alarm clock. I didn't like that the refrigerator seemed in the way. The floor wall protector near the bathroom came loose, the shower chair had no leg protectors.
Food and restaurant waitstaff was excellent. I liked that there was easy access to lots of outlets, no parking.

Starbucks in the lobby doesn't take Apple Pay and had run out of most of their food by 11am!
Pretty much as expected for an older hotel - gym was fine and rooms were very large. Two double beds with lots of space to spare. The valet service was great and the staff were friendly.

The pillows were pretty awful. They were like sleeping with a bunch of balled up socks in my pillow case. I had to ask for several replacements the next day, but lost sleep the first night since the pillows were sooooo bad.
Location is great and the staff is friendly. The restaurant and food was unexpectedly good.

Parking! I was okay with it, once I figured it out. But….. The website doesn’t tell you where to park; only that it costs $17/day. I called the hotel and the person told me that it was a short distance away. She failed to say that there was another parking structure with the SAME NAME that was on the next street and no the alleyway she failed to convey to me and my travel companions. All and all it wasn’t the biggest of deals. But I would have thought that a hotel the size of a 22 story Sheridan would have better instructions of where to park. It wasn’t just me. The people that I was meeting were just as confused.
It was clean and quiet. Great views of the surrounding area.

The aircondition of our room wasn’t working properly the last day of our stay and it was really hot in August. The technician tried to fix it but without success, so they suggested to change room but we refused because it was our last day. Finally, they brought us a fan to pass the night.
Great room size, excellent cleanliness, also convenient location. Helpful staff.
