How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

A much appreciated pool (and air con) in the hottest of days! Great location for the station and the beautiful, historic city, as well as for access by bus to nearby towns. Delighted to recommend and will return. Thank you.

Verified reviewThe location of the hotel was fantastic, the old part of the building was beautiful and the pool was great.
Our first room was awful, there was a smell of damp and black mold over the shower. To add to this there was a banging noise from the air-conditioning that went off once a minute overnight. In fairness we were offered a new room the next day, but unfortunately neither my wife or I slept a wink the night before, nor were we offered a refund for the first night in the awful room.
Dear Tyther, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are delighted to read that you appreciated the location of our hotel, the charm of the historic building, and the pool. We are, however, sincerely sorry to learn about the inconveniences you encountered in your first room. Please accept our deepest apologies for the discomfort caused by the damp smell and the air-conditioning noise. This does not reflect the standards we strive to maintain. We are glad that we were able to relocate you the following day, but we truly regret that this issue impacted your first night and your overall stay. Your feedback is very valuable and has already been shared with our maintenance and housekeeping teams to ensure this does not happen again. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back, and to provide you with the flawless experience you rightfully expected. Kind regards, The Cloître Saint-Louis Team

Verified reviewThe staff were welcoming and friendly upon arrival, and someone showed us to our room; the barman at the pool was also pleasant. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The location is perfect if you arrive/leave by train.
The hotel doesn't feel 4*. The old building is really beautiful but unloved. Simple changes could make it much nicer. For example, the furniture is all very dated and cheap, like it came from an office supplier. The only decor on the walls are what look like Aztec rugs - completely out of place. And there are tacky laminated notices everywhere. I didn't spot it when booking but if you look at the first photograph of the swimming pool, it has clearly been photoshopped - presumably to hide the stain around the edge! This hotel could be really beautiful; they need to hire an interior designer.
Dear Nicholas, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the warm welcome from our staff, the cleanliness of your room, and the convenience of our location near the train station. We are, however, sorry that the style and decoration of the hotel did not meet your expectations. The historical building is indeed full of charm, and we understand your remarks about the furnishings and decor. Your comments are valuable, and we will make sure to share them with our management team, as we are always seeking ways to improve the guest experience. We truly hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again, and to provide a stay that is closer to your expectations. Kind regards, The Cloître Saint-Louis Team

Verified reviewWe stayed in a room at the top with 3 circular windows and a small openable skylight above the bed and it was very quaint. The pool had a lovely sunset and was perfect after a day exploring. The main courtyard at the hotel was very pretty too and it was really easy to get there from the train station.
You just have to be careful not to bang your head on the way into the room as the ceiling is low.
Dear Stuart, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the charm of your room, the peaceful atmosphere of our courtyard, and the relaxing moments by the pool, especially at sunset. Our location near the train station is indeed a great advantage for exploring Avignon with ease, and we’re glad it added to the comfort of your stay. Thank you also for your kind note about the ceiling height in your room. As part of the building's historic architecture, some rooms do have lower ceilings, and we appreciate your understanding. We hope to welcome you again for another relaxing getaway in Provence! Warm regards, Reception Team Le Cloître Saint-Louis

Staff not friendly, try to be but simply their reaction like they are forced to help you or answer your questions. Rooms are old and poor, no electricity outlet near the bed. Shower ceiling very low, that your head pumps in the ceiling and its dirty. No way no way 4 stars hotel, any 2-3 stars hotel experience i had was wayyyy much better. I thought for price i'm paying I will get something decent, but absolutely not.

The hotel is in 2 parts. Old and modern. Modern looked good. The other part is not user-friendly and pretty aulful. Old Plumbing the air con is very noisy, really awkward getting to the room and I am sure the lift is not legal . The car park ground is awful to try and move case wheels over and your car gets messed up. Sorry to be negative but I was not aware that there were options to book the mordon part .
