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.).

You cannot open the windows. The basin in the bathroom has a weird design, too wide a border in the front makes it difficult to use
The location is very convenient.

The door is more of a sliding glass so keep that in mind if you’re sharing the room with someone. Not uncommon for hotels but worth a mention
The property was sleek and the staff was super accommodating. Lot of restaurants and other activities close by. The beds were amazing and the room was very spacious and neat. The breakfast was also included in the booking and it was delicious

The room for three was too small, a cubicle. It was not clean: we found a dirty teabag in the kettle and one towel was dirty. Welcome kit in the room insignificant.
Position: close to the city centre, to the venue of the show we attended and to the airport. The staff was super nice and welcoming.

Sofa bed was uncomfortable, breakfast was busy, waiting/ breakfast staff allowed people with designer bags to queue jump, how does that give preferential treatment? Had to wait for some hot breakfast items to come out but good breakfast. Staff need to be more aware of items needing to be restocked, breakfast was busy and pastries/ pancakes seemed to take an age to be restocked.
Clean, close to transport into the main attractions, easy walk for more able bodied.

Reception seemed quite short staffed, and often there was nobody there and had to wait quite a while for someone to appear. NO reflection on the staff working as they were fantastic and were obviously really busy, just seemed to be not enough of them

- • Queen Room with Sofa Bed

The vanity counter in the bathroom is positioned too high, and the countertop is quite deep, making the tap difficult to reach even for an adult. The sliding door that serves both the closet and the bathroom could pose a safety risk if two people attempt to use the closet and the bathroom entrance at the same time.
Breakfast was excellent, with fresh drinks and well-prepared meals. The hotel appears to have undergone recent renovation, giving it a modern and refreshing atmosphere.

The bed is uncomfortable, the breakfast quality is below average, the cleaning does not meet professional standards, there is no luggage service, and the accommodation is overpriced.
The interior is newly renovated, and the reception staff are professional.

The windows don't open, only the air conditioning. The room is definitely tiny for three people and three suitcases.
The hotel is clean, the breakfast is very good, and everything is fresh. The rooms are quite small. The bathroom is nice and comfortable. It's well-located for exploring Edinburgh. A plus is the hotel's parking, although it costs extra. It's fine for a short stay.
