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.).

- • Solo traveller
- • Small Single Room
- • Stayed 4 nights
My room (number 12) didn't have a real window, only a very small one high up next to the ceiling, in contrast with the photos of the room on booking.com that do show a full size window and plenty of space. While it did let in some natural light, it wasn't much. The room description also mentions that the size of the room would be 15 m2 whereas mine clearly was a very small room, less than 10 m2. Update your photos and descriptions! The shower was very small and the water temperature was difficult to adjust.
The breakfast was very good, the chef goes an extra mile satisfying your request. The location is good, there's a bus stop 5 minutes away on foot and the town is lovely.

Those rooms are so hot! Honestly felt like I was melting and with my health condition I'm not great in heat. Even with the window open and the fan on. A fellow guest told me she had air con in her room, so I'll be asking for that one next time!
I really like the location of it and the price

It wasn’t as plush as we thought it would be . We struggled to get parking as it is also a restaurant and spaces were taken up by customers of restaurant only.
We thought it was a boutique hotel and that we had got a bargain deal. Staff were very friendly but it did seem short staffed too.

Car parking out back is limited, and especially bad if residents park selfishly. Parking is possible on the street at the front but be careful of arrival and departure times.
Room was very clean and cosy with a nice big TV. Bed was comfy, breakfast had a good selection. Bar had a pleasant atmosphere and good beer.

This is my third stay in a year as my son lives locally and my work Head Office is 35 mins away. We love Kenilworth and the Abbey Field. This time the restaurant was not as good as before. 'Crouton' in son's dish was inedible. Waitress tried to justify this which made the matter worse. We don't believe this was her fault but it's possible what she had been told to say by Chef perhaps.
Excellent room, service, very clean, comfortable. Lovely vibe. Reception and bar staff exceptional

Our ground floor room (room 1) was adjacent to a corridor where we were awoken by staff banging doors early in the morning and we were treated to a builder's mobile phone conversation through the thin wall. Also, on our second night, in the bar (around 10.00 pm) a group of loud drunken men (friends of the barman, it appeared) shouting and swearing (apparently also waiting for a takeaway they had ordered — is that allowed?) oblivious to anyone else's presence. Obviously, we left — no quiet corner was available to avoid them. It was a very unpleasant experience, not least because the barman was apparently unconcerned. It wasn't obvious how to change the temperature in the room (mind you, we could have asked).
The bed and pillows were comfy, bar/restaurant/lounge areas were satisfactory (though we did not eat there). Good to have an onsite car park, though it's quite narrow and the spaces are limited (we had no problem finding a space each night, but only just).
