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 StatesRoom was very small. Because of all the roads being blocked, due to culture festival, we had to park a long way away and haul our luggage to the hotel. That is not the hotel fault but they should have informed us about the festival and that we would have difficulty getting there.
great location in center of town, coffee and donuts were at the reception desk because we had to check out before breakfast

United StatesHotel entrance tricky to find. Stairs at the entrance that must be negotiated with luggage. There can be noise from music in restaurants and the street.
Breakfast was Continental, a little light by American standards. Staff was phenomenal. The entrance to the hotel is hard to find and there are steps to negotiate with luggage. Location is fabulous.

MaltaThe room was on the smallish side and the decor could do with an upgrade.
The room was comfortable and very clean. Breakfast was quite varied. The hotel is in an excellent location, very central, although some of the neighbouring venues were quite loud. On the whole it's good value for money.

CanadaWith the central location came street noise from people enjoying themselves. The sky was bright all night long due to the time of the year so folks were partying until the wee hours of the morning, not fighting just chatting & laughing. The band in the pub across the street stopped at 11 pm.
The location was excellent for us as we weren’t going on tours this visit and we could walk to interesting sites & delicious restaurants.

AustraliaThe hotel is in a very pleasant area of Reykjavik in the pedestrianised street of Laugavegur. The street has many shops, restaurants and bars. The room and facilities were good and clean but our double room was on the small side. Reception staff very friendly and helpful.

United StatesFor people traveling with stroller or wheelchair, there are multiple stairs to walk up on. There are a couple of bars nearby blasting music up to about 11pm-1130p.
Staff was very friendly. Location was very good for walking distance to a lot of things. Breakfast was not special but not bad. Rooms are exactly as depicted on website.

United StatesOnly two things to improve, please have power outlets by the bed. It was difficult for me to reach my phone while resting or when waking up. At least one usb charger would be more than helpful. Second, and minor, and perhaps difficult to change, the ledge above the sink is kind of wide, when I bent over to brush my teeth or wash my face, I kept hitting my head with the ledge. Other than those, I enjoyed my time in this place.
Excellent location, the staff was more than friendly from day 1 of my booking (a month ahead my actual stay), the room space was great for one person, the street view was awesome. The breakfast was diverse and suitable to all the tastes. Hotel was walking distance from all attractions, bars, the ocean view, restaurants and transportation hubs. Thank you for letting me check-in earlier.
