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.).

BelgiumMaybe add some coffee & water to the breakfast.
The suite was very spacious, and the price was very good. Staff was helpfull. Breakfast was good, it had both savory & sweet sections. The location was very convenient next to the Arbat (main walking street of Shymkent) & near a lot of restaurants. About 20-25 minutes taxi to the airport. The view from the 8th floor window was amazing, especially at night. Would recommend!

PakistanNo negative observations. I loved my stay at this excellent hotel. If only they could add some facilities like wellness centre or fitness centre.
Exceptionally good breakfast and outstanding restaurant staff made every morning a treat. Special thanks to all the breakfast hosts for their meticulous work. Very helpful reception staff always there and willing to help. I would love to stay here again and recommend it to all those who want to visit Shymkent. Taxi and bus services are only minutes away.

ChinaThe bathroom has a really large window but it’s only half covered by the curtain. The staff didn’t really speak English but tried their best to be helpful. However the problem can not be solve. Luckily it was ‘pitch black’ outside that window. One elevator didn’t work properly, wouldn’t go to first floor on the other morning.
Locate at the center of the city and it’s close to all the places. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable.

KazakhstanThe parking works chaotic! Absolutely disorder as from guests side, as from responsible staff. It is need to take the strong order in the parking as well as Altyn Topchan Restaurant parking - the people in car doesn’t respect pedestrians and blocking all the entrances including main gates.
I have stand here many times during last 10 years. In previous years there was worked very beautiful girls and handsome guys. Hotel has good location and very clean and comfortable. Thanks to all the staff.

This is an excellent hotel in the middle of town. For the price I cannot fault it at all and after spending 3 weeks on travelling the Silk Road it was a pleasure to stay here. Clean modern rooms with air con, a lovely bathroom and all modern amenities. Breakfast was more than acceptable if a little different to what I am used to but there was plenty so no complaints from me
