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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

Not much to complain about but the glass door to the bathroom made a very loud sound every time we closed it. Also the digital light switches are very annoying to use.
Great location and friendly staff, room is clean and bed is comfy

Guests in next room left at 0745, cleaners in the room by 8am which is great for guests checking at 3pm but not good when you check out at 11am and are woken up by cleaners banging bins/doors and hoovering as soon as guest leaves.
Central location, well maintained, friendly staff and breakfast is okay.

Was not keen on the digital lighting option s,was difficult to work out without any instructions.Did not appreciate having to pay £3 per bag for storage after checkout.Its not a lot of money but have never had to pay for that service anywhere I have stayed over many years.We all pay enough to stay ,as well as spending hard earned cash in the hotel at the bar for food & drink.
Location was good.Hotel was very clean and room was pleasant and comfortable

The TV didn't work, it would randomly switch itself off, not great as we were trying to have a movie/pamper night. Could also hear the trains running while trying to sleep, wasn't too loud though, but just be aware of it. The corridor had a very strong bleach smell the entire time we were staying there, couldn't smell it once in the room though.
Clean, comfortable beds, close to tube station. Short walk from Tower Bridge.

There was so much noise!!! Loud trains all day and night and loud building work quite early in the morning. I previously stayed on a higher floor and the noise was much less noticeable. Something to keep in mind (we were on the ground floor this time). I'd stay again if I can make sure I'm on a higher floor
Location was perfect, rooms are super clean and exactly what I was after, staff were very friendly

The bed was very small, and the blanket was even smaller, but it was comfortable and warm. The room was very small in general.
The room was very clean and had everything we needed. There were led lights and the A/C system was at our preference. The breakfast buffet was also very nice with a variety of options.
