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.).

GermanyThe personal in the restaurant (was horribly unfriendly). The kitchen personal was very kind and stood there. We asked them if the kitchen is still open (21:45). The said: yes, come in. We do something for you. And then the nightmare began: a very unfriendly old lady said: kitchen is closed (the tone…). We said, that the people 5 meter away said that it’s open but if not, we could leave. With in unbelievable unfriendly manner she gave us the menu and after 30 minutes she left, not before I told her how unfriendly of a person she is. Disgusting behavior for a nice hotel in total.
Coz beds, tiny room but spacious enough for us three.

AustraliaI liked most of all that it is in a historic building, a prison, that my room used to be a cell. It was a small room, but big enough for me and much more comfortable for me than the previous occupants. The whole hotel was lovely, with a museum in one wing. The breakfast was excellent and the surrounds on the island made a lovely walk.

PolandIt is an intriguing place with a rich history as a former prison. Here, visitors can explore a museum showcasing the prison's past, preserved to maintain its authenticity. While it can feel eerie to imagine the experiences of those once incarcerated here, the transformation into a hotel adds a unique charm to the atmosphere. The property boasts a high-quality restaurant and expansive grounds, perfect for relaxation by the water and enjoying beautiful sunsets. Overall, it's a fascinating place to stay, where history meets modern comfort. Additionally, the breakfasts were delicious, adding to the overall positive experience.

United KingdomI can honestly say there is nothing I didn't like.
Staying at Långholmen Hotell was an incredible experience. I loved the island location and beautiful surroundings for enjoyable walks. The prison building and cells are well equipped, modern, and very comfortable. I discovered something new and interesting every day. All the staff were amazing, very friendly, helpful and kind. The included breakfast has everything for a wide range of preferences, and the restaurant has authentic, delicious meals. The whole experience was truly memorable, and the people of Sweden were wonderful. I highly recommend this hotel.

PolandI can only think of one tiny inconvenience, that is, how loud was the door leading to the corridor with the cells/rooms. I could hear people coming late at night and early in the morning. Other than that, everything was amazing.
The best feature of this hotel is the location, the island is beautiful and within a walking distance from the metro station. The breakfast was superb, a lot to chose from.
