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.).

New ZealandBathroom layout is not comfortable. Especially the Toilet..
First time we stayed, we booked the cheapest and the smallest room with no window. That was a bit claustrophobic but worth the money. Second time we stayed I managed to secure an upgrade which was nice. Best thing about this hotel is location. Paddington is great to stay in as there are great food places near by, train goes straight to Heathrow Airport, train goes to all the great things you want to see in London and it's in 1 zone so cheap. I also felt safe in Paddington.

Room was reasonably priced, considering the great location. It was a standard sized room without a window. I knew this before booking so it was not a surprise. The lack of window wasn't an issue as we had air con and some nice mood lighting. Nice tv, comfy bed and the reception staff were very pleasant and always smiling.

United KingdomThe room in the basement and did not have any windows. The room itself was tiny! There was absolutely no space to keep my suitcase. The bathroom was tiny as well, the water would not stay in the shower. The biggest issue was the noise of the tubes. I could hear them most of the night and early morning. There was a massive queue to get coffee.
The location was perfect. It's a 10 minute walk from London Paddington, has a Tesco across the property and a bus stop as well. Check-in and check-out were super smooth and the property was super clean. The bed was very comfy and had usb ports next to the bed.

AustraliaThey unfortunately didn’t offer cots to use, which many properties do. No tea and coffee facilities in the room - although they offer free hot water but you have to go to the lobby. The green light on the fire alarm was SO bright above the bed it left a halo of light over half the bed. I lucky had some painters tape with me (a great baby toy on the plane 🤗) so stuck that over it. The windows are also not super sound proof, so you do hear the sirens going to the neighboring Hosptial occasionally,
The location was excellent for getting too and from paddington station. Clean, generous rooms. We stayed in an accessible room to have extra room for my portable cot for my daughter. It was spacious and clean. The tv had great on demand options and a chrome cast option.

AustraliaThe room was amazing for what we paid but it was on the smaller side, it was a very very tight squeeze to fit two large suitcases
It was so handy being within in easy walking distance to Paddington Station, that was definitely our favourite aspect. As well as the great breakfast places around
