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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

MoroccoI had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable. What truly made my stay exceptional was the staff. They were incredibly friendly, attentive, and went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed. Special thanks to Mustafa Kamal for his outstanding service and warm hospitality. From the warm welcome at check-in to the helpful recommendations for local attractions, their service was impeccable. I highly recommend this hotel and look forward to returning in the future.

BulgariaIt is an old building, missing some amenities (lift seems permanently out of order), narrow and low staircase, but that didn’t affect us at all.
Excellent service, smiling and always helpful stuff - first thing to note. Location is perfect - close to everything in old city, but in the area in Sultanahmet, where all good restaurants and vibrant streets are. Breakfast was very nice, rich and tasty, especially for such a small hotel. Rooms are clean and well maintained, even though building is a bit worn out.

RomaniaThere is a construction site near the hotel, and the workers start at 08.00. So keep this in mind when considering this hotel. Also, due to high inflation+location in tourist area, watch out for the prices (better to have local currency than euro/usd). Prices are higher than Paris/Milano for food and drinks.
Location is key, right in the heart of Eminönü area, where all major landmarks are situated. Facilities are as described. Big plus to breakfast/WiFi and cleaning staff. Also many thanks to Mustafa at the reception desk (this guy will help you with everything).

IrelandVery noisy during the night, but you can't expect something different in the very busy city centre. Not a lot of storage in the room. TV was quite small and only with local channels.
Location is brilliant, few minutes walk to Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque, very near tram stations and ferry port. Room was big enough and very comfortable with nice view on one side, but construction site on the other one. Beds and pillow were very comfortable. Bathroom was ok, enough towels and toilettries provided, you even get the slippers. There was also a small fridge with free water. By far the best were staff, the nicest people any hotel could have! Breakfast was ok, a bit basic and mostly authentic with free coffee, tea and drinks provided. Good value for money.

United KingdomThis hotel is in a great location - close to shops, restaurants and public transport. The breakfast was buffet style with most things such as bread, spreads, cereal, juice, olives, cheese etc staying the same but a few other dishes that would change each morning. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating - they even prepared an earlier breakfast for those of us fasting! Also the beds were comfy and the cleaning was thorough and done daily. Would highly recommend!

The owners were amazing so hospitable and kind. Everything was amazing hotel was clean, very cute, helpful, friendly, comfy beds etc. Amazing 100% would come back. The best staff and owners we felt right at home. Location is amazing close to everything. The staff went out of their way to accomdate us and make sure we were happy. And we didn't feel like we were being tricked as tourists. Our room was a king bed and 2 twin beds. So it's not tiny but not huge. It was just right for its use. It's very close to the tram to get everywhere. And easily accessible by taxi as well. We went to another hotel in the area before and didn't have an amazing experience like we did here.

United StatesNo complaints.
Great location near the ferry, tram, and metro and yet on a fairly quiet street, at least in February. A family-run hotel, all staff members are very friendly and helpful - they aim to please at all times. Although some staff members don't speak English, there is always an English speaker available. We loved the Turkish breakfasts but noticed some guests were sticking with the western-style offerings which in our view was a mistake to miss out on the tasty Turkish food. There are not a lot of western food offerings but I bet they would make some scrambled eggs if you requested it. Nice firm bed and a nice balcony with a table and chairs. There's a small lift for 2 people for those who don't like stairs.
