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 Kingdomnothing it was amazing !!!
It is in such a good location !!! About a 15/20 min from the centre centre, however plenty of things to do near by and so easy to get public transport from the hotel!!! Amazing staff, so clean (bed made and towels changed every day), free coffee, tea or hot chocolate every morning, they will hold your luggage if you arrive early and have time to kill before a flight when leaving, beds are so comfy… all in all PERFECT

United Kingdomthe biggest problem for me is that the hotel doesn’t have windows that open. I need fresh air sometimes because of allergies, and this was just impossible. The air con (which includes heat) was blowing right onto me (my bed), so i had to turn it off. But it kept making some weird noises (sometimes loud) even when it was off. Another big problem: semi-sheer toilet door. Everything is visible whether you have lights on or off inside the bathroom, no privacy at all. The sink was outside the bathroom and needed another bathroom mat or extra towel underneath. The shower was on the floor, so the whole nathroom was wet. Again, needed extra towel to dry the floor, so that the toilet trip wasnt too wet. In general, i felt very uncomfortable in this hotel and wouldn’t stay there anymore.
Beds were comfortable, quiet outside and in corridors (most probably lucky with the other guests). The reception staff are VERY friendly, helpful and nice. This is the only reason my rating isn’t lower than it is.

Our stay was perfect. Such a nice room, hotel and the staff was so helpful, and made you feel welcome. Everything was so nice. The location of the hotel was close to everything, u don't even have to take use of any kind of transport, u can literally walk everywhere u have to go. Thanks to the hotel and the staff for everything

CanadaAbsolutely not worth the cost. Basement room, super damp with no proper ventilation. Old and stinky towels and sheets. No fridge. Not even close to a “hotel” experience.
The only positive thing was the location.

The Melrose is a lovely, clean hotel with great rooms (I opted for the suite) which is close to coffeeshops, restaurants and the bus which takes you directly to the airport. The Anne Frank House is about 10 minutes walk and the center is roughly 15 minutes away.

AustraliaI did not like how when it rained there was always a dripping sound. This made it hard to sleep. I have also paid 200 euros extra for a window room, however this window was meaningless. My room was 020. I also did not like how there is no door on the shower.

United KingdomFor the price we paid, this hotel was perfect. We actually walked from the central train station upon arrival as we had time, it was about a 30 minute walk. In a cute neighbourhood but so close to the centre. The staff were friendly and the rooms were clean. We travelled with 3 teenagers who were happy with the room with no window - we wanted to be near them to keep an eye on them but in the end it didn’t matter. When we return to Amsterdam, I would love to stay here again! Thank you to the staff for having us!

United StatesI do believe the friendly staff was on vacation. This is a budget hotel being sold as a boutique hotel which it is not. For someone staying a few nights with little luggage who will never be on the room it is fine. If you want to unpack, store your items, see yourself in a full length mirror or put away toiletries this is not the place. The rooms are dismal. The public bathroom never had hand towels any time I used it and the staff smoked right outside the door. I wanted to leave the moment we checked in but there is no refund. I wouldn’t stay there again even if it were cheaper.
