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 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):
- 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.).

Deposit of 500 juan, which is bigger than an amount for the night.
Most beautiful city hotel I stayed in, in beautiful location. Lovely spacious rooms, well equipped. Very clean hotel with good breakfast. Staff so kind and helpful I’ll. ever forget this. May a girl from the reception ( not sure if her name is right) “saved my life” helping me out with the payment for the room and lack of working phone and internet. She is the only one out all receptionists speaking so well English there and deserves a good pay. Beside her the other girls are fantastic too, security man kind, honest and helpful. Found my daughter’s phone left in the main hall.

It was not a big deal, but I had difficulties with connecting my cell phone to the free hotel WiFi. Laptop connection was more stable, but also here, I experienced intermittency and occasional problems with accessing certain websites.
My room, located on the 31st floor of the building, was very spacious, with a huge comfortable bed and large windows providing an overview of the cityscape of Chengdu. Storage options for clothes / luggage were overwhelming and well laid out and a fully equipped kitchen made preparation of breakfasts a breeze. Hotel gym provided multiple options for working out (treadmills, elliptical machines). The hotel is located very close to a metro station, which is a great asset for exploring the city, and several sights (Jinli Street, Tianfu Square) are located within a walking distance. Members of the hotel personnel were very friendly and helpful, dedicated to their mission of making the guests feel as comfortable as possible.

It would have been more useful to have USB ports for charging phones. Breakfast was acceptable but not the range and choice we have found in other hotels in China. But these are both relatively minor points
We loved the location - such a beautiful river and easy walking distance to Tianfu Square, People’s Park etc Our apartment was so spacious with two large en-suite bedrooms and massive lounge and dining area and an office !! Plus a well equipped kitchen.

We had a wonderful stay in one of the very spacious apartments this hotel has to offer. You really feel you are living at your own place in Chengdu. Ot was great to rest and work. The apartments are amazing, and great value for price. The breakfast is very authentic, copious and delicious. The hotel has a nice pool, a very large fitness room with a good selection of machines, and even a boxing ring! You can do all kinds of activities inside but are also in a location barely a 10 or 15 minute walk from great restaurants and lively spots
