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.).

United StatesThere was only 1 working elevator the 6 days we were there- the other elevator was out of order.
The location was so convenient to the Tube, museums and Royal Albert Hall. Clean and quiet studio with a comfortable bed.

ChinaSeems the lift to the 6th floor has been out of service for a while which means you will need to carry the heavy luggages by yourself from the 5th to the 6th(mainly the one bedroom rooms) floor by steps.
Room is bigger than shown on pictures. Staffs are nice and helpful. Location is great.

SingaporeWe stayed in a one bedroom maisonette. Internal doors were very heavy and kept slamming shut which was very noisy. Need door stops to keep them open. Only one lift working over the 3 days we were there so a long wait at the lifts.
Fabulous location about 6 mins walk from Gloucester Rd tube and 10 mins walk from High Street Ken. Additional shops, cafes and restaurants literally on the doorstep. Staff were friendly.

BelgiumWell, from day 2 of our 10 day stay the elevator to the 6th floor stopped working. It wasn't fixed till we left. I understand mechanical things can fail and it takes time to fix. But this was stretching it. Day 4 they offer me another room on a lower floor. But that meant packing and unpacking which frankly we werent ready to do. It was a lot. They offered me a second cleaning of the room for free. Welll that was appreciated but hardly in comparison to the inconvenience caused to us. Everyday we had to walk up and down thru the garbage room to reach our room. And for that the offer from the manager was a piddly 2md clean up. That was the most disappointing part of our lovely trip.
Location and room type.

AustraliaThe plumbing in our bathroom was not working properly. Strangely, the shower would not provide cold water so very difficult to cool down scalding hot water from both the showerhead and the basin. Management couldn’t rectify the fault.
The room is really good, we love the location and the staff are friendly. We have been many times before and will return again no doubt in the future. In the context of London in accommodation we think it is excellent value.

United KingdomNo towels in the room but reception sorted before we were back from the event so all good. I'm a wheelchair user and in the room we were allocated the sofa bed blocked access to the main space. Fortunately I can transfer and walk short distances so we didn't need to change rooms. If you need full wheelchair access within the room definitely ask them to double check if the room will meet your needs.
Warm welcome, ramp access ♿ and the location for the Royal Albert Hall (we were attending an event there) and for Hyde Park. Would definitely stay again great to have the kitchenette and everything we needed was provided.

BelgiumThe heating system / air conditioner was extremely noisy, until we learned to switch it off or used another mode. In the kitchen, we missed some basic stuff like kitchen towl / paper or oil.
We liked the location. A quiet neighbourhood, yet shops closeby. No noise outside, quiet nights. A small but well-equipped gym room.
