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):
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.).

GermanyAbsolutely nothing, all was great !
The location is superb!!!! What's not to like?!!? The building was part of the Castle itself until the renovations. The mixing of old and new has such a great taste and care for History, that makes your head spin, considering the amount of places all over the world that can benefit from this point of view. Great breakfast too

LithuaniaThe rooms are not well isolated so when there's a group of school kids, one can hear them clearly until the night. The shower cabin is located inside the room which lacks privacy even though there is a translucent glass door separating it.
The group rooms are cozy and have a big locker for all your things. The beds were comfortable and the breakfast buffet had a big variety of choices. A great location with an amazing view from the window.

GermanyI arrived late after 12 in the night, and the staff let me in quite easily. They kept my booking aside and allowed me to pay up the next day, so I was able to check in and rest comfortably first. Really appreciate the extra mile they went for me! The breakfast and room were also completely amazing, exceeding my expectations of a youth hostel.

AustraliaNothing at all. Accommodation was as expected and was clean and comfortable.
Great hostel. Clean and comfortable. We had a private room on the tower. Breakfast was included and great options (family of 4) Also had evening meals for 9.90euro per person. Room was good size. Beds comfortable. Bathroom good ...shower good with decent water pressure. It is a bit of a challenge to get to from the main HBF station, and it's a top of a hill ....and cobblestones roads and paths. Sure is a decent workout 😜 (something to bear in mind with your luggage ....whoever thought cobblestones were cute and quaint has a lot to answer!). View from the hostel area made up for all that! And the accommodation is a castle....
