Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

BermudaThe hotel has been in renovation for some years and so I am happy to see the progress and give a pass on the small things.
The newly renovated rooms were a nice surprise and well decorated. The location is always the draw for this choice. The staff and conceirge team go above and beyond every time.

United KingdomAlthough informed about renovations on booking, I was glad I was not at the hotel in the daytime, as I came to Amsterdam on business. If you are on holiday this is not ideal for a lie in as it got quite loud. And the renovation is not reflected in the booking price .Also on checkout day the lift had issues, a member of staff walked past me with a guest whilst I tried to call the lift upon his return I asked if the lift was not working , he let me know that it was an issue with the buttons and the lift could be used from the back access . It became clear that this was where he took the other guest but although seeing I tried calling the lift didn't think to let me know( I was on the 6th floor)
The staff at the Renaissance hotel are wonderful. Everyone is very helpful , friendly, professional and forthcoming.. The room was well equipped and spacious for a city centre stay.

ThailandHi, I'm Supanat, I was a guest at your hotel on the 16th to the 18th August. The point I write this mail to you on the day I check in with your staff. Tell me to pay a deposit of 100 euros as a deposit for damage to the room. And will refund within 2-3 days after check out date, but until now I haven't received any refund.

United Arab Emiratesthere’s an ongoing construction and the access to the lift seems like a maze. wuite noisy during the daytime but becomes alright during the night time. anyway, we are not in the room during the daytime so nonissues there. only if you come back in the midday to recharge, then the construction noise becomes bothering
good location, near Amsterdam Centraal and restaurants. can walk around to see the hot spots within 15-20mins

United KingdomThe noise was awful and woke us up every morning except one while we were there. The hotel did state there was construction while we were there but this was more like demolition. I don’t feel like they should charge full price when they have such works going on. I have stayed in other hotels/ resort when they have had work but never to this extreme. They were literally pulling a whole side of one part of the hotel down. The work started at 9am so woke us up and then was all day until 6/7pm. I didn’t feel like we got to relax in our hotel room as the noise was unbearable. It felt like we were under a heli pad when we first woke up due to whatever machinery they were using. The noise could be heard through the whole hotel. I have stayed at other hotels while they have construction but it’s never affected my stay as it’s always been to a minimum noise wise. I have videos of the noise but unable to load.
The location of the property was perfect in walking distance of most places. I booked this for my husbands belated birthday and the receptionist bought us some cake and drinks was not expected but much appreciated.
