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 KingdomThere is no lift in the hotel. Its very annoying as you have to take your suitcases via staircase and they do not have people to carry your luggage to your room. You have to take your luggage yourself to the rooms via staircase which is quite difficult and frustrating.

Czech RepublicThe room was a bit small and bed could be more comfortable. There's light noise from the street especially tram and the restaurant next door.
The location is close to all the shops, restaurants and tram. Staff was helpful and nice, had no problem with anything. Asked for water they gave us for free and added juice, asked for hairdryer also got it immediately. I wanna say I appreciate the woman who is in kitchen during breakfast and cleaning up. Works very hard with smile on her face. Appreciate her. breakfast and the terrace is also nice, you can use it even during evening to rest after busy day. Easy check in and check out.

MoroccoThe housekeeper and the lady who prepares breakfast were not friendly, they wouldn't even respond to us when we said good morning. We smiled at them and they just kept looking at us without any reaction. In 10 days in the same hotel, they didn't even say hello or smile at us like we did. One time my mom went to the rooftop terrace to get a glass of water, because we don't have a minibar in our room. The lady who was preparing breakfast was staring at my mom and thought she was too early for breakfast. She even told my mom it was too early. Breakfast starts at 8:30, and my mom went up to the rooftop to get a glass of water for her medicine at 8:00. Concerning the room was a bit small, the housekeeper doesn't put everyday a new shampoo and shower gel and she doesn't change the sheets....
1.The location was great, close to all the sights. 2.The guy at the reception helped us fiind a taxi to go to the airport.

NetherlandsThe hotel arranged a taxi to the airport, but it was sent to the wrong address. I nearly missed my flight and had to pay €140 extra for another taxi. When I contacted the hotel about this serious mistake, they stopped responding properly and even replied with just a question mark. This unprofessional behavior was very disappointing. I will be filing a formal complaint with Booking.com.
The room was clean and the location was convenient. At first, the staff were friendly and helpful.

United KingdomThe hotel is located directly on the tramway line, taxis and airport shuttles cannot reach the entrance. We had to walk quite a distance with our luggage, which was especially tiring after a long journey. Another thing to note is that the hotel does not have a lift—only stairs—so if you’re staying on a higher floor or have heavy bags, it can be quite a challenge. Staff members help you with luggage, but the lack of a lift isn’t ideal if you have mobility issues. The breakfast was very basic and lacked variety or flavor, which was disappointing. It’s okay if you’re not fussy, but don’t expect much. Although the tramway is just outside the hotel, the nearest stop is approximately 10 mins walk away. The biggest issue for us was the noise. The rooms are not soundproof at all—we could hear loud conversations and movement from other guests throughout the night. Even the early morning call to prayer comes through clearly. Light sleepers may struggle to get a good night’s rest here.
The hotel is in a good location— perfect for walking to many of the city’s historic landmarks, which made sightseeing very convenient. The staff were also friendly and welcoming, which we really appreciated during our stay.

United StatesNothing about the hotel...just that Istanbul/Turkey is more expensive than we expected.
Great staff, clean, excellent location in Sultanahmet district and very close to the main tourist attractions, allowed early check in and good breakfast. Our transfer communicated with the hotel staff and helped us with our luggage to find the hotel by meeting us at the nearby drop off location. Hotel did the same when we were headed back to the airport. Their restaurant food was good and offers no service charge/10% discount if staying at this property. Təşəkkür edirəm!
