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 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):
- 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.).

Verified reviewI have stayed at other hotels listed by LHW before, but this one was disappointing compared to them. There was nothing in the minibar, not even water in the room. For the first two days, they asked me to sign a bill for breakfast. When I told them that breakfast was included in the room rate, they said it was “procedure.” Then, when I was checking out, they tried to charge me for breakfast again, and I objected. In the end, they did not charge me. This hotel does not live up to the standards of LHW hotels.

Verified reviewThe only good thing I can say the hotel concierge Diane was very nice and helpful.
I paid $950 per night to be in a jail cell. I stayed in this hotel with my 18 year old autistic son who is obsessed with the NYC skyline. We booked a very expensive suite with a view but we were surrounded by scaffolding. He couldn’t enjoy the view he came to see. It was an eyesore. We really felt we were in jail and he was very disappointed and upset. The photos attached were our view in all 3 directions. Due to the scaffolding and the work being done on sight I don’t think this rooms should be worth even $100.

Verified reviewThe location of this hotel is perfect in between the hustle and bustle of Times Square and the peace and tranquility of Briant Park. It’s also 2 minutes walk away from the Subway. The staff are so friendly and helpful and always willing to go the extra mile to help you have a good stay. The rooftop bar is a lovely place to unwind after a day out sightseeing or shopping. The rooms and spacious and very clean.
Only thing that could have improved our stay is tea / coffee making facilities in the room.

Verified reviewLocation close to Times Square
Jack hammers working on the exterior and room above us. No alternative rooms available. No coffee machine available and their cafe closed at 14:00. Roof top restaurant messed up our order, cleared the plates and cutlery away, then brought the correct food out to the bar - with no cutlery. Bar service wasn’t table service as it’s been in the past.

Verified reviewLocation was great, Times Square on doorstep and subway very close by
Scaffolding all over building, workmen outside window. Wasn’t aware the hotel would be taking $150 deposit each day which we hadn’t factored into our budget. Even though you put the do not disturb on door staff still come in. Rooftop bar was great but it was very expensive and range of soft drinks/mocktails was poor. We didn’t feel welcomed on one of our visits, there were loads of tables available but we were told too busy for a table even though in the time we were there tables were never used. You can use the bar but it doesn’t even have anywhere to sit. Complimentary tea and coffee would have been welcomed which is offered in much cheaper hotels.

Wish there was a coffee maker in the room and while it was not important to us, the lobby is super small which would make a quick meeting for business purposes difficult.
