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.).

SwedenDinner our last evening was a bit bland and the bathroom in our classic room was a bit small. But clean and well equipped. The hotel offers better rooms for a small add-on.
Good location for exploring Rennes and Bretagne. Very nice hotel, cozy feel but what really stands out is the staff. I have travelled the world on business for 40 years and stayed in many luxury hotels but the Balthazar Hotel is one of the better experiences I have had. Full marks to every member of staff throughout the four nights we stayed at the hotel.

FranceWe had a wonderful stay at this hotel! It’s perfectly located, right next to everything you might need, from restaurants to attractions. The service was excellent and the staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay. They offer a valet service, and the valet was very professional and efficient. As part of our stay, we also had access to one hour at the spa, which was a truly relaxing experience. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel, everything was top-notch!

United KingdomHotel itself is great. However if you have a car I would suggest perhaps Rennes is best avoided as they take the concept of hostility to car drivers to a different and somewhat ridiculous level.
A delightful place with delightful staff. We arrived with car which is, in Rennes, an inadvisable thing to do. Spent an hour driving in circles round the inpenetrable one way systems, not more than a couple of hundred yards from hotel. Eventually parked in a space and walked there, somewhat frazzled and bad tempered. They were absolutely delightful. One of them volunteered to go and get the car. Got it. Sorted it. Wow! Hotel itself is lovely. Very elegant. All the right bits in the right places. Close to centre of town. Nothing to dislike. Everything to like.

South AfricaThis should be private to the management. We ezperienced several bedbug bites diring our stay 😳 But given the otherwise excellent stay did not want to explicilty mention it to reception- obviously embarrassing. I had an aternoon nap because of the heat - my companion worked - so it was quite obvious the next morning when we had similar bitemarks.
Well appointed. Luxurious. A\C struggled with the heatwave - but managed
