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):
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.).

TurkeyOn our first day in the hotel, while we were resting in our room, the employee at the reception suddenly barged into our room without knocking. I came out and warned him and he apologized, but it was an unacceptable behavior.

EstoniaIt was unclear to us whether the breakfast was included in our room price so my husband went to ask about it from the reception. He asked whether it is free and he was told "yes" and handed the talons to use at breakfast. When checking out, we still had to pay for the breakfast. We did not mind paying for it, of course, but it would´ve been nice if the staff told us about the price right away.
We had a room with a beautiful view of churches and the city. As it was the highest room and it was quite hot, the air conditioning was came in handy. The breakfast and coffee were very tasty and the restaurant itself very nice.

Great location, very central and near to both the Dom and the river. Lively square but great soundproofing so not a problem. Room was clean and spacious - liked the door window opening to the square. Also liked the restaurant downstairs too.

It has great location close to catedral in the middle of old town. One of the squares just in front of the hotel. There is a nice Italian restaurant under the hotel. It was a great option with the kid in rainy day.

IndiaStandard Double Room was small with very little space to walk around with a smaller queen bed, barely good for two people. Had to pay an extra to upgrade to a comfort room which had more space. However, there was no tea maker, chair but staff provided them upon request; some bulbs were missing, making lighting inadequate in night. The tile floor makes it cold in winter even though the room heating was good.
Staff are helpful, location is excellent with about 5 minute walking distance to the Dom (Cathedral), to the river side (Rhine), to the shopping area, to the inter-city and inter-country train station (Köln Hbf) and to local public transport (tram/bus). The surrounding is full of dining options. We managed to cover key tourist attractions in less than two days due to the ideal location of the hotel.
