How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewCharming hotel in the heart of Sultanahmet, within walking distance of main attractions and surrounded by a variety of restaurants, cafés, and shops. Our room was small but had all the comforts including aircon, a fridge and a very good shower. The staff were very friendly, attentive, and helpful, and made us feel at home.

Verified reviewWe had a wonderful stay! The service was excellent and the hotel exceeded our expectations. The location is great as well, 10 mn walk from the blue Mosque. If we come back to Istanbul, we will definitely stay here again. A special thanks to our hosts — especially Arslan — who were truly exceptional and did everything to feel welcome. Thank you for everything!

Verified reviewClose your eyes, stop thinking much, no need to search other optons - just book this hotel straight away. What do you need when you are travelling with family and kids? Clean rooms, friendly accomodating staff, 24/7 Food and grocery availibility at door step, Fast internet connection, all basic facilities, high pressure warm and cold water to get freshen up and flexible support from the desk regarding check in, check out, transport arrangement etc - This is all you will get here. Location is excellent with everything nearby. The cornish is at few steps walk. There is not a single thing that bothered my stay with kids. Excellent experience.
Nothing to unlike.

Verified reviewExcellent Stay at Camelot Hotel – A Truly Memorable Experience I had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Camelot Hotel in Istanbul. From the moment I arrived, I felt a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The hotel is incredibly cozy and comfortable, with great attention to detail that made my stay feel truly special. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully arranged to ensure maximum comfort. What really stood out was the exceptional level of service. The staff went above and beyond to make sure every guest felt valued and well taken care of. In particular, I would like to highlight the outstanding help I received from Arslan. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Arslan provided invaluable assistance with navigating the city, explaining the unique features of each district, and helping me shape a meaningful and enjoyable cultural program. Thanks to him, I was able to experience Istanbul not just as a tourist, but with a deeper understanding and appreciation of its history and charm. I highly recommend the Camelot Hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul. It’s a place where you can relax, feel at home, and receive world-class service. I will definitely return!

Not much items like kettles, tooth brush or tooth paste. They do give shampoo and soap though so that’s a plus

Verified reviewWe stayed at this hotel — overall it was okay, but there are some things to be aware of. The location is great: just a 5-minute walk to all the main attractions. The area is quiet, with no noisy roads nearby, and there are plenty of small grocery shops around. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially Arslan — he assisted with check-in and answered all our questions. The room was clean, warm, and housekeeping was done well. On the downside, we originally booked an economy room, but it turned out to have a window facing a sort of back yard with a wall, and it smelled strange — there seemed to be chickens kept there. It wasn’t very comfortable, so we ended up paying extra to move to a better room. That was definitely a drawback. All in all, if you're looking for a budget-friendly place and just need a room to sleep in while spending your day exploring the city, it’s acceptable. But don’t expect anything fancy.
Dear Daria Thank you for the feedback but we want to clarify one part. The room that you described is what you exactly booked for and if you check the photos you will see that it is the room that you stayed. While we saw that you are not comfortable in that room We offered you to upgrade with a reasonable rate to a higher level and you accept it. We have 4 room categories and economy room is the cheapest room that's why it is called economy room for the guests who are looking for a better deal. Kind Regards Eser Akkoç
