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 StatesThe hotel needs to improve lighting for reading in bed.
The hotel is well-located adjacent to the city center which has multiple pedestrian ways unfettered by autos. The dining room was open late which was essential since our train was so late.

PolandDue to early check-out, I asked if it was possible to get a takeaway breakfast. Of course, the girls at the reception confirmed this option. I was even asked about my allergies and whether I also wanted coffee. It was very nice. So I didn't buy anything to eat. Unfortunately, nothing was prepared for us in the morning. The lady at the reception was surprised. Tragic attitude towards Guests.
A place with an idea. The interior design required a lot of work and certainly makes the hotel unique.

AustraliaDon't stay here on the weekend or public holiday as the hotel faces a night club. The noise from the music kept me awake most of the night. As the building is old there was not a lot of sound proofing of the windows. I mentioned it staff but they responded that I had chosen to stay in the city.
Amazing decor and great breakfast. Like being near the river too. The room was furnished with wonderful collection of items. Coffee machine was great.

EstoniaThe view was to an opposing office building, no vegan spread at breakfast.
The hotel is a rather quirky and personable stay in Umea. The breakfast was fantastic and the room generally pleasant, although the view could've been improved. The staff was incredibly welcoming and kind throughout my stay. The breakfast catered satisfactorily to a vegan diet, but what was there was delicious.

Finlandvery small plates at breakfast, but at least a sign saying you can eat as much as you like. Hairdryer, iron and ladders up to upper bed had not been cleaned. Dust everywhere. No fridge in the room and a very small shower (the shower itself was very good, but more space even for a thin person like me would have been nice)
Great location and a chance to leave bags before check in. Lovely inside square with restaurant, shop and cafe plus access to library. Organic products and italian specialities sold in a food store. Special decor and style.
