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.).

Verified reviewThe location turned out to be quite good. Some nice restaurants within easy walking distance. Lovely thick towels and a nice breakfast.The room was large and comfortable. The ambience of the hotel was quite pleasant.
The shower pressure was very poor. The towels presented to us were two bath towels and two hand towels.The shower floor was very slippery, we had to put one hand towel in the shower to avoid slipping and use the other as a bath mat. When requested, we were given more towels but there was never a rubber anti slip mat for the shower. It was potentially very dangerous. The room was made up very late in the day but the bed was left unmade. When questioned, the room attendant seemed to indicate that the bed was private business and was not her role. Speaking to reception did not help as English was not spoken and google translator failed in getting the message across.

Verified reviewNear the center of the city and everything. Breakfast was ok.
Air conditioner was not working at all. Staff didn’t help me with the problem at all. I couldn’t sleep 2 nights. And I changed the hotel afterwards.

Verified reviewThe room had white linen that helped it look light. The room was ensuite, and there was an elevator up to my floor which was really helpful for moving luggage. The man close to the door (not quite a doorman) helped me with my bags when asked - but didn't offer - and everything was done willingly, but not happily. No positivity or energy from anyone.
The bed was hard, there wasn't any bedding and it was really very basic. The team were helpful when requested, but no positivity or upbeat vibe. Al the lights were off in the adjacent rooms to the entrance, so seemed like a rather underused old concrete building that had people staying in it, rather than a comfortable and friendly hotel which is what I thought I was coming to.

Verified reviewQeydiyyat masasında Aybike adlı işçi var. O həmçinin mətbəxdə səhər yeməyi də hazırlayır. Rəftar qaydalarını bilmir. Onun kobud rəftarına görə səhər yeməyinə düşmədim. Ümid edirəm hotel rəhbərliyi onun barəsində tədbir görəcək. Hotel asfaltı dağılmış dar küçədə yerləşir. Üzbəüz bina da hoteldir. Taksi ilə gələndə tıxac yarandı. Məcbur olub çantalarla taksidən düşüb piyada hotelə getdim.

The street in front of the hotel is under construction (maybe forever) and when raining/snowing it was quite challenging to not get your shoes dirty.

Verified reviewClean compact room. (Standard Twin) Good value for money. Good breakfast buffet.
The hotel didn't have the room I had booked - the Junior Comfort Suite with 2 single beds - so I had to downgrade to a Standard Twin. Much smaller room but a lower price. There must be some discrepancy between the hotel systems and Booking.com?
