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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomNo wardrobe or similar in the room. As I was only staying one night, it wasn't a problem for me, but for someone staying a week, it could be.
Very informal chill booking in process, very clean room, good shower, hot water was hot, tv, quiet hotel. Excellently located for exploring Shepherd's Bush. For the price, really good.

United KingdomWasn't the 3* hotel - Sapphire I'd booked, was the house next door they'd newly acquired. Was not 3* quality Had to get house/room key card from another hotel, Pearl,down the street. Fridge didn't work and dirty inside Only 2 old and bent coat hangers. Texted the contact re this issue when arrived in room. No reply. Was only sleeping there and out at a funeral and gatherings both days so no time to chase it up. Kettle wouldn't fit in the sink to fill, only manage a cup full of water. Kettle leaked when pouring. Large middle window fitted badly, were gaps in each side and room was therefore very noisy as next to main rd. Thankfully had ear plugs, without would have been difficult to sleep. No bedside table. Room very bland in colour of decor. A coloured bed band like shown in the Sapphire photos would improve the look. Choice of a one softer pillow would be good, too hard for me sadly. Carpet a little tatty. Bed and quilt comfy All clean. Position was perfect for me as funeral service was just round the corner. And not too far from the tube. With the above corrected, I would stay again, but not as it is.

United KingdomThere's only 1 pillow each. Fine, if you're on your own, but if sharing, only 1 pillow is so flat. One of the bay windows didn't have a net, which made inside the room viewable from the street outside. This was made obvious in the morning when a cleaner was sitting on the outside steps to have a smoke, so I had to close the curtains.
Be aware you have to go to the Pearl hotel a few doors down to collect room keys. They actually put us in this hotel instead of the Sapphire which was fine. I was in room 14 in the basement and It was a nice size. The shower was so lovely, great pressure and temperature. Directly opposite is a sainsburys and very near to other food places which was handy.

United KingdomI have booked there 4 times over the last 2 years. I have never stayed at the hotel I booked as you have to check in on Pearl hotel and you will stay there, so it do not look like the photos you see but it is similar. I just think they should have pearl hotel listed as that is where you will mostly be staying. a double bed is a queen bed, the room 41 I stayed this time did not have anywhere to hang close, bathroom is very small. it was fine as long you don't think it is a big rooms you can hang out in. it is with rooms that you sleep and shower in.
The price is really good compared to other
