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.).

We loved everything about our stay at Vardar Palace! It is located at an excellent, convenient, walkable location near Taksim Square and Istiklal Street. The staff are total gems. Our room (2x twins with street-facing balcony) was so comfortable and provided a great spot for mid-day rests in the summer heat (the AC was clutch in July) just slightly tucked away from the crowds. We found the pricing to be quite reasonable, too! Would definitely stay again.

When I asked about early check in, they answered quickly and politely. And I was really lucky I was allowed to check in at 9am because there was one room which was ready. The location is good and quiet at night even there are many restaurants near the hotel.

GeorgiaThe room and bathroom were smaller than we expected, and the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner. However, this was nothing too concerning and didn’t overshadow our overall positive experience.
We had a great stay overall! The staff were as friendly and helpful as possible. They allowed us to check in immediately after our arrival, helped us with our baggage, and were always responsive and responsible at the reception. The location is perfect if you enjoy the lively atmosphere of Istiklal Street and Taksim — everything is right at your doorstep. The beds were extremely comfortable, and the pillows were especially amazing!

Saudi ArabiaOur stay was absolutely amazing and truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the reception staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They were incredibly warm, respectful, helpful, and genuinely friendly always ready to assist with anything we needed. They made us feel completely at home, and their hospitality exceeded all our expectations. They even upgraded our room free of charge, which was such a thoughtful gesture and made our stay even more special. The hotel itself is in a fantastic location just a short walk from many major attractions, restaurants, and shops. The hotel feels very safe, and is spotless, stylish, and extremely comfortable. Everything about our stay was seamless and relaxing. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area. I will definitely be returning in the future. A heartfelt thank you to the entire reception team for your kindness, generosity, and outstanding service you made our experience truly exceptional.

United KingdomPity there is no restaurant. But there are restaurants and general stores next to the hotel. A few reviews mentioned lotsa noise. We could hear the noise (banging and furniture moving from the basement) in the room from 9am onwards. We were on the 1st floor.
We had 2 rooms, 3 guests and 2 guests.. Staff's hospitality, location, room size for 2 single beds were good and bathroom for 2 guests. However, the room and bathroom for 3 guests were small (see picture) and not much walking space in room. Not suitable for 3 adults-1st floor room. To give you an idea, the bathroom door had to remain closed in order to stand by the sink. However, for the 2 bed, we extended our stay at the hotel given the location, hospitality, cleanliness and felt safe.
