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.).

SwitzerlandWe careful if you stay in summer there is an outdoor bar/club in the hotel. Friday and Saturday Nights can be loud. If you're looking for a good rest, this will not be it.
The newly renovated rooms are nice. I can't say anything about the old rooms. The location is hard to beat. Everything in the city center is in walking distance. Value for money is ok.

PortugalAlthough parking is available at the hotel I find it quite expensive 20 Euros.
Location was perfect to visit the city, plenty of restaurants nearby. The rooms were nicely decorated and the room had a big window with great views.

United StatesThe hotel should put some mosquito nets on the balcony door and windows. They are cheap and will save AC energy costs. Sometimes at night I want to be sitting comfortably and sleeping with the windows open without bugs coming in.
This is a good hotel in a good location and very comfortable beds. I got the non-renovated room and the beds were more firm and comfortable than the renovated one.

United KingdomJust be aware that the hotel is located in a very popular and busy location, with a number of bars and restaurants underneath the hotel.
A fantastic piece of Communist history in a very good location, easy walking distance to many of the main sights and transport links.

BelgiumThe airco was a bit noisy, but acceptable. The 'mini-bar' was almost non-existent. Only water. Would have been nice to have other drinks there.
The location is excellent. The staff is welcoming. The renovated room was very good. The view is amazing from a higher floor. We had 7th floor.

BulgariaI've stayed here before and it's sad to see how if you don't pay more you'll be forced to sleep in a very miserable room. During my current stay, the only thing is that the doors creak a lot and you can hear everything from the corridor and the neighboring rooms as noise. Also when l was leaving the hotel at exactly 11:57 and l was at the door, they started calling the room on the phone from the reception and telling you to leave. Quite rude.
The room was good.

MexicoI stayed at one of the no renovated rooms thinking it would not be that bad… it was. The facilites are super old, even the bed sheets were old and stained. The cleaning service was bad, I feel like they just take the trash out and that’s it.

United KingdomWifi was disappearing very often- irritating.
The welcome and professionalism of the staff. I like the location, I need this location for the things I need to do, that is why I don’t mind being in an in refurbished room. Air conditioner- excellent, works well, without it when it is +29-30 outside is difficult. All my requests were answered by the caring staff.
