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 Kingdom- There's no kettle! - They charge you for tea and coffee, and it's expensive (£2.50 per cup!) - One team member was a bit rude. I asked him if there was a seating area. He disregarded me, telling me "no", even though there was a seating area right by the entrance. When I sat there to make a call, he stared at me, as though I was doing something wrong. This really annoyed me.
Some of the staff were really nice. It was small but cosy. It was clean. It was a decent price for London.

GermanyAlthough we knew upfront that the rooms are small and booked 2 rooms, but didn't expect to be that small with no shelf to hand the clothes in or to "hide" the travel-bag. There were though windows, but the glass was not transparent and thus nothing to see from the room. Which made the room look even smaller.
The staff was great and friendly. With two kids we had to book two rooms, and requested rooms close to each other which was granted. We needed an adapter for a charger (forgot to take our own) and we borrowed it easily in the hotel. The location was very good, although for the second time I would prefer anywhere near paddington. The lobby was a nice trade-off for very small rooms. Breakfast was though not excellant, but very good to start the day off. The rooms were clean.

United KingdomThere was a little hiccup with the payment, where a lack of communication meant they had told my guest to pay a charge that didn't need paying. I was able to iron it out though.
The room was cosy, it was small but every space was used, which meant we could get good value for money. No space was wasted, there were so many fold out and hidden features in the walls and bathroom, and we didn't even consider the room temp and light controls until we were almost gone. check these out. The location was perfect for all the venues I needed attend in shoreditch and it's well connected by the stations.
