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 AmericaThe vegan breakfast options here were very limited (there was basically oatmeal and fruit) but my main issue was that the doorman/security was rude and intimidating, and seemed to have a grudge against me for no good reason. On my first night, a security guy came to my bedroom door and knocked loudly around midnight to say there had been a noise complaint - even though I was in the room alone and working quietly on my laptop. I had to open the door to show him that there was nothing going on inside my room, despite the fact that I was wearing my pyjamas. On the third day of my stay, I asked the hotel doorman if a colleague could join me in the lobby for coffee/a meeting. The doorman told me that he couldn't, but in a rude and somewhat aggressive manner - questioning me about how I knew this person and what line of work we did (I truthfully told him we were environmental reporters here for Climate Week). My colleague then walked away and I entered the hotel alone. I went back to my room and a few moments later the doorman showed up, asked me if I had anyone hiding in my room (I showed him that I didn't) and then angrily threatened to eject me from the hotel if I tried to sneak anyone inside. I asked him "why would I do that?", and he just repeated his stern warning. I was upset and shaken by this odd encounter and immediately reported the incident to the front desk, where a man apologized but didn't do anything further than that. I paid a lot of money to stay at this "prestigious" hotel, and was there to report on the Earthshot summit being held site on behalf of a prominent environmental charity. I doubt I'll stay there again given how i was treated.
The restaurant, bar and reception staff were all very friendly and accommodating. The location of this hotel is excellent.

United States of AmericaWe stayed there as a family of 3 Requested an extra bed but it was not ready Went out for 2 hours and went back and the bed was still not ready. We were impressed with cozy king bed room with spacious bathroom However an extra bed was not set after requesting 2 times we waited about 2 hours still nothing was happening.. Also previous guest left used plates and glasses right outside of our room and it stayed there for a good time Asked at the front to take care of it But until after 3rd request it was still there.. We expected better service unfortunately He was making phone call but it did not taken care of it for 2,3 hours Very surprised and kinda disappointed It’s a little things but i expected The Plaza to have better service

Everything was well presented in the lobby and room. Also, the customer service was great!

United States of AmericaService was not as good at the Palms restaurant. The Hostess sat us in a crowded cluster with other diners when there was plenty of room throughout the restaurant and then told us it was because she was expecting other guests; no other guests arrive during the entire hour we were dining.
Great Service at the Champagne restaurant; excellent food. The water pressure in the bathroom was excellent and the shower had an individual temperature controller which made the shower feel like a spa session.

United States of AmericaThe view was south, so looking into office windows. Next time, park view if available to rooms, and not just to condos.
The suite was just as we hoped it would be! Luxurious and comfortable, elegance from another era but with the bathroom upgrades you'd expect. Room service was quick and friendly. Cleanliness was top drawer. We tried other luxury hotels in the past, but... The Plaza is the best!
