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 StatesOur standard room was comfortable but not as elegant as the rest of the hotel.
The view and breakfast were great! The interior of the hotel is stunning, and the rooms have spacious bathrooms. They even had a nice welcome treat for us waiting in the room. The bellhops are extremely helpful.

AustraliaNothing to complain about.
Beautiful building and lobby and room, we were travelling with little kids so the closed-door common room down the bottom with free snacks and drinks was wonderful, right with a view of the zocalo. The restaurant buffet on the rooftop terrace was also lovely. It's right in the middle of the CBD - a very busy and touristy spot but close to some important historical landmarks.

SerbiaThere was a miscommunication when it came to picking up out clothes for laundry service, so half of it was not done. It was a mild inconvenience. Also, the location is beautiful but a huge pain in the butt to get in and out of if you plan to visit other areas of Mexico City. It was extremely noisy at night. Our room was right above a main street, so I suggest you avoid those rooms if possible. I probably wouldn't stay there again only because it's an extremely busy part of Mexico City. But I'm glad I had the experience.
I loved the building. It was probably the most beautiful hotel I've stayed in. The architect is gorgeous. It truly feels like you've traveled back in time. Their restaurant has a great breakfast spread with an incredible view of El Zocalo.

Dominican RepublicThe streets to get there have a lot of traffic, but honestly it was not a problem with this central location and how beautiful the space was. As soon as you arrive to the hotel makes you forget it.
As soon as you arrive to the hotel you are greeted by the bellman, who are dressed in an antique uniform. Wonderfull staff, accurate information with our rooms and reservations. They inmediately invite you to the lounge that has an Amazing view of the Zocalo. The main focus is the architecture of the hotel, that beautiful vitral is the main character of the space. Loved it all!!!!

The hotel is stunning inside and the terrace must have the best view in Mexico City. The room was very comfortable, shower was great and the extra touches like a lounge to wait in after check out were fantastic. All the staff are lovely and the location is exceptional for everything in the historical centre. I can't wait to stay again!

United StatesIt could be a little loud during the day with so much vibrance happening in the proximity of the hotel. But it is was live music so it wasn’t an actual problem. Also you have to walk a short distance to the hotel because Zócalo was frequently closed to vehicular traffic, but was not a big deal.
The staff were amazing, I was greeted by Emmanuel at the door who escorted me to the front desk. A glass of champagne poured for me as I checked in. Staff explained the history and layout of the hotel while taking me to my room. I was greeted by name every morning while leaving the hotel to explore the town. The housekeeping staff were wonderful. With Zócalo steps away, you near by stores like Nike but also small vendors.

Abraham, the door man was so nice. He gave us a great overview of the history of the hotel when we arrived and gave us a ride in the steel elevator. Everyone was right there if we needed anything. The glass ceiling was amazing. The breakfast buffet upstairs was amazing and always with great service. We a dinner there several times and were not disappointed.

United StatesThe hotel is in the center of town and we learned that citizens love to protest. So our Zocala-facing room got pretty much blasted by noise. Also, the water pressure in the sinks and shower are is terrific, the toilet, sadly, was way under-pressured and it led to lots of issues.
This hotel is one of the most beautiful I've seen. Staff bend over backwards for guests, the property is spotless; the restaurant is wonderful for breakfast (one of the best I've been to) and very good for a dinner.
