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 Arab EmiratesThe location is excellent, right in the heart of Taksim with easy access to shops, restaurants, and public transportation. The staff was friendly and helpful during my stay. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, which made my stay enjoyable.

United Arab EmiratesThe only thing i could criticize was that you could hear music from a club until 4 am (i'm a light sleeper) But you are right in the center of Taksim St. Our kids slept through the night! Only other thing that would have been an issue for me personally was the flashing red light from the fire alarm... it was waking me up but luckily i had an eye mask with me, which fixed that issue for me.
Loved the location. Staff very responsive. All the shops you could want are right on ur door, tram and metro steps away. Staff very helpful with bags and making additional tourist inquiries for me and bookings.

PakistanHowever, there are a couple of practical considerations to keep in mind. After 9 AM, vehicles are not allowed to access the hotel directly, so if you’re arriving from the airport or elsewhere after that time, your car will drop you around 100 meters away. This can be inconvenient if you’re carrying large luggage. The hotel does try to assist with staff support, but it can still be a bit of a challenge. Additionally, given the hotel’s central location, some music and street noise may be heard in the rooms during the night, which could be an issue for light sleepers. Overall, it’s a stylish and well run hotel with a prime location just be prepared for a few minor logistical and noise-related compromises.
Sentire is a charming boutique hotel in an excellent location right in the heart of the main happening area of Taksim. The rooms are well maintained, the staff is warm and helpful, and the location is truly perfect for those who want to be in the center of the action.

GuamHave to make a short walk uphill from the taxi or car (no vehicles in the road in front of hotel). But it was minor and so worth it!
Great location right off Istiklal street. Super safe with locked entry from the street. Staff was exceptionally helpful- helped me figure out where to get flowers and cake for my moms birthday, helped us place a food order at a restaurant, and even sent their runner to pick up the food. Rooms were well equipped and super comfortable. Loved everything about this stay!

AustraliaThe hotel was in a great location right on Istiklal Street close to shops and restaurants. I had a balcony but had to ask for a chair to be put there but enjoyed sitting out having a coffee or tea watching the crowds. Bed was comfortable and the room was well equipped. All the hotel staff were helpful and friendly. I expected street noise and it was minimal but this hotel is not for someone looking for peace and quiet. Overall a great hotel in a very convenient location.

Hong KongI'm a woman, so my stay would have been better (it was already an exceptional stay, though!) if the hotel had provided hair conditioner haha.
The staff members were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, kind, helpful and funny. Thank you Ferhat, Huseyin and Gurkin. We had landed early in the morning and arrived at 8 am. Our room was not ready yet, but they messaged us (I had been messaging them on booking.com prior to landing as I had some questions and they always give prompt responses!) on the app immediately once it was. They were the best hotel staff members we have had so far. Apart from offering us lots of suggestions and being patient with us, the entry host (Gurkin/Gurkln/Gurkan/Gurken we apologize as we were in a rush when we were trying to get his name) helped us with our luggage and walked us all the way to the uber pickup point which was about 5 minutes from the hotel on a bumpy road. Our room was very comfy and spacious. We had booked a room with a terrace, and chilling in the sun there was a bonus during our stay, which was during the transition from winter to spring. Besides, we couldn't have asked for a better hotel with such a great location (extremely close to a wide range of restaurants, shops, pharmacies, and tourist attraction points all in TAKSIM). Also, the kitchen equipment was very nice, so for travelers who prefer to make their own meals during their stay, this hotel is for you haha Seriously, staying in Sentire absolutely elevated the quality of our trip and made me consider moving to Turkiye simply because of how hospitable (game-changing level!) the staff members were. Super grateful! Will recommend Sentire and the team to my friends and family without question!!!

Saudi ArabiaFirst thing the photo of the outside of the hotel isn’t accurate, the photo if of the shop beside it and the hotel is not directly on the street 1- it doesn’t have a parking lot, but there is a 5 minutes walk parking lot. it wasn’t free but i don’t remember how much it was, probably about 15$ a day. 2- there are sounds from the clubs at night, for me i barely heared them once, they didn’t bother me at all but if you’re sensitive to sounds then they might bother you
I stayed there for 8 nights with my family, 60 years old parents and 16-22 daughters It was nice but if you’re travelling with a family i suggest not to stay at taxim square or istiklal 1- the hotel is very clean, and they offer a daily cleaning service 2- the room is beautiful and comfortable 3- the location is excellent, sometimes we arrive late at night and don’t feel like driving to a restaurant, but the hotel is surrounded by many good restaurants, so we can just walk to one 4- the street is lively and full of energy 5- the staff are very nice and helpful, and my dad loved them
