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.).

United KingdomThe lift was broken, there was no fridge in the room and the shower gel, shampoo etc had been attached to the wall so high, if you were in the bath and needed it you would have to stand and stretch to reach it.
The location was excellent for what we wanted to do.

United KingdomHad a twin room 4th floor. No view out of window and room felt small. However this was fine for one night, personally wouldn’t have liked it for any longer and did feel slightly short changed.
5 mins walk to Buckingham Palace - Excellent location to see/walk to all the tourist sights. Hotel staff all extremely friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean.

United KingdomThe only problem was we went out for a walk to go sight seeing when we got back to our room the door was left open staff had brought us complimentary chocolates and biscuits which was nice but they didn't close the door behind them .I reported it to reception they apologised and said they would look in it that was the only negative thing .
The location was very good right across the road from Buckingham Palace. The hotel was lovely .

United KingdomNot really worth the money paid £520 for the night The extra for the view was really non existent as we were to far along to look on the mews No fridge in the room sockets only one side of the bed difficult to plug in the kettle Despite being aware of a 60th birthday no effort was made to a knowledge this Oh and the light in the bathroom was hanging out the ceiling. Would stay again but with lower expectations.
Very clean and very well located The serving staff at breakfast were very good indeed. The front of house also very good indeed Bed super comfy

United StatesThe restaurant was way overpriced with scant selection for breakfast at a high price. Suggest you get morning eats down the street.
Amaizing room, so clean and beautiful. Definitely 5 stars, staff could not be more helpful and friendly. It was our 40th anniversary and they made it so memorable with a lovely note and a beautiful little cakein the room. Location was perfect, right across from the Royal Mews and Buckingham Palace. Short walk to the tube station and Victoria station. Absolutely loved the shower and bath, very luxurious. Lovely hotel with so much history, can't wait to go back.

United StatesMaybe the size of the shower... it was very clean and served its purpose but just felt a little on the smaller side.
The staff were amazing and couldn't do enough to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The location was within a 5mins walk to the London Tube and in what seemed to be a safe area near Buckingham Palace. Dinner in the Curry Room was outstanding and worth every penny of the prix fixe menu. The rooms, at least the one we had was not huge but they were well appointed and had everything we needed.

They truly went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay and didn’t have to worry about a thing. It was the very best beginning to our honeymoon that we could have asked for :)

United StatesThe check-in process took too long late at night (30 minutes). Also the agent must have been new as she gave us incorrect information stating that rooms would not be cleaned every day unless we asked and also stating that the water in the room was only free the first night. The room was cleaned every day (without us asking) and we learned later that the water was actually included.
Staff was exceptional and location was great.
