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 reviewLocation. Friendly staff.
The room had an untidy, beaten sink that was leaking. There was tea, but there was no teapot. There was no water to drink. There were no napkins. There was also no cleaning during the stay.

Verified reviewThe location is great! Friendly staff. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable.
The only thing I didnt like was the shampoo and balsam provided in the shower. It made my hair really sticky, and it felt awful afterwards. Bring your own soap!

Verified reviewLocation is excellent — right in downtown Montreal, surrounded by restaurants, bars, and shops. It’s a lively area, perfect for walking around and exploring the city.
When we arrived at the hotel, we encountered some issues. We were first taken to a nice suite, but unfortunately, the air conditioning broke down. Because of that, we had to change rooms. The front desk staff, particularly a very young man who assisted us, was extremely kind, polite, and patient. He even came up to our room and tried to fix the air conditioning himself. Once he realized it couldn’t be repaired, he immediately brought us the key to a new suite. That day was extremely hot, so we really appreciated his quick response. There is no air conditioning in the hallways, which made things uncomfortable, but the reception area smelled nice and looked clean. The biggest issue with the hotel was the breakfast. It was very poor in protein. The only sources of protein available were a single type of cheese, milk, and yogurt — no eggs, ham, or any hot dishes to go with the bread. This was disappointing. Another point to note: parking is not included and must be paid for daily.
Dear Maia! We appreciate you choosing Hotel Chez Swann during your recent visit to Montreal. It was a pleasure to welcome you! We are glad you enjoyed location of hotel! Although we have many guests enjoy complimentary continental breakfast (freshly baked pastries, muffins, cookies, cereal, yogurts, coffee, tea, fruits, juice, toasts, jam etc.) offered, we understand that it is probably not to everyone's liking. We have shared your observations with our hotel team and apologize for any inconveniences related to room change. The air conditioner was fixed. It is always our highest priority to ensure that our guests leave the hotel happy and satisfied at all times. Should your travel brings you back to Montreal, we will be more than happy to welcome you! Best regards

Not having a restaurant in situ and having difficulty with the AC not working well with days of unexpected heat. However they went out of their way to resolve the issue and ended changing rooms for a bigger nicer one with better AC.
