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.).

United KingdomNoisy corridor, creaky floors... people can be heard walking and talking... but that's not the hotels fault... just inconsiderate guests. Lol. There is no on-site restaurant on mondays/Tuesdays. Parking is 'uphill', so be prepared to walk and sweat a bit. 😄
Very clean and cosy. Amazing water pressure and shower temp. Great breakfast and amazing morning staff. Very helpful reception and great at giving directions. Smelled like oranges throughout the building... can be a bit overpowering, but still delicious.

United KingdomDisappointed in the bedroom. It was a business trip which entailed me working in my room. No proper table and a small room. Also, would have liked a warning that the kitchen shuts early as I was unable to get room service on my last evening. (I’d been looking forward to a nice steak!)
Return visit so almost everything.

United KingdomCourt yard could be lovely but sadly very unkept which is a shame as it’s a lovely little outdoor area. Parking is a 5 minute walk up a steep hill in a local sporting complex car park.No problem for us but could be an issue for others .
Spacious room with doors onto a courtyard which were ideal as we had our dog. Lovely bar/restaurant & lovely friendly staff

AustraliaThere was building works going on during our stay, had to drag our 25kg luggage upstairs, then downstairs , then up again. No help was really offered. The breakfast was tasty but would have preferred being able to select food and drinks from a buffet style, rather than food coming out in a random order. Staff could have been more friendly, or at least not be within earshot when talking about its visitors.
Booked multiple rooms for family members. The single rooms were tiny, bathroom was in a closet, however it was clean. The main suite / superior king room was awesome, huge, opening up onto courtyard and was very comfortable. The restaurant attached (Blocks) was expensive but had awesome food, the best gravy I’ve ever tasted. Would definitely stay here again :)

United KingdomThe town generally was very quiet on Mondays and Tuesdays with only one or two restaurants actually open in the evening, including Blocks, the restaurant within the hotel, so we never got to eat there. From Thursdays, most places are open. Apparently, there's not enough visitors to warrant the restaurants opening on the off-chance, which is a great shame for the whole town. More visitors would benefit everyone.
Location - Delighted to find that the hotel was in original old building, right in the main town so it was an easy and interesting walk along to the birthplace of William Wordsworth. Room was spacious with all amenities - tea/coffee making facilities, tv, hairdryer, free WiFi, small ironing board and iron, ensuite had great mirror with motion sensor light and clock built into mirror Breakfast menu was superb with generous portions plus the option of a Breakfast Box, with yoghurt, cheese, flapjacks and apples Staff were generally very helpful and pleasant
