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 KingdomBalcony railings covered in cobwebs - room was really ckean, but think the balcony had not been touched for weeks. . No hair dryer in the drawer, but clearly someone had pinched it as the end bit was still there! Didn't matter to us as I always take my own. Bar nice but was really quiet, (no atmosphere). Charged separately for both dogs (2 × £20 = £40 for one night). Don't see why we had to pay double when they were both staying in the same room as ourselves, so any extra cleaning that the hotel felt they needed to plan for would not be doubled. Other places we've stayed just charge a single amount whether you have one or two pets with you.
Dog friendly room - reasonable price - nicely furnished and it had a balcony overlooking a large pond with lily pads and fish. Would be great venue for weddings.

United KingdomThe lift wasn't working and access tyo the room through fire doors was cumbersome. Dinner in the bar was ok but overpriced for what it was. I have stayed in the past when the food has been better.
The setting near the Wrekin is lovely and it was great that on this occasion the hotel was not full of a coach party

United KingdomBroken bin in the bathroom. Stray short head hair (not mine) on the rim of the bath & another on a wall tile. Fire alarm went off at 1am & again at 1.20am. Not a great night's sleep as a result.
Quiet location. Good size room. Comfy bed. Balcony overlooking the garden area. Large fluffy white bath towel. Ate in the bar in the evening (additional cost). Tasty food. Lovely breakfast too (included in the room rate).

United KingdomAsk for ground floor rooms but were put on 1st floor, lift broke down 4 times, once when were in the lift! Had problems with 1 room key opening the door, key never worked first time - was changed twice. No disabled facilities/showers.
Rooms were spacious and well equipped. Staff moved us swiftly and easily to ground floor rooms after lift breakdown. Ground floor rooms had lovely view onto pond - happily watched ducks swimming about. Breakfast very good, plenty of choice.

United KingdomThe first day or two we had the place to ourselves. The weekend there was a wedding party, but we were not affected by that. A bit of car noise late a night when I was trying to sleep, but it might have been from the road.
The location, the grounds, comfortable rooms with balcony, well-presented inside (bar, restaurant etc) Nice staff. Very good breakfast.

JerseyThe shower head was not great to manage, it is one of those that is supposed to sit on the side of a bath to rinse, no t a main shower head. The hotel decor was very tired and dated. There was a constant running water noise close to our room from inside the hotel. The mattress on the single bed in the room was really hard and uncomfortable. The lady in the breakfast room was abrupt, rude and loud, quite discourteous and the breakfast selection was substandard and inadequate.
The hotel location is stunning and we had a lakeside view. The reception staff were very kind and well mannered. The room was a good size and had coffee making facitilities and TV

United KingdomBathroom facilities were mediocre, Toilet seat was "interesting" as it didn't actually fit the toilet at all and you was left with partly sitting on the porcelain rim Shower leaked down the wall and flooded the floor, plus the tiles were loose or just balanced in place at the base of the bath. no hot breakfast as this was not available until after 8am and (due to having to be at a conference for 8:30am, and allowing for travel) I had to be gone long before it was ready. If you have food allergies, i'd say take your own food and there was only Soya Milk as a milk alternative
Room was clean and tidy and comfortable. There was tea and coffee facilities with plenty of supplies and milk Breakfast was ok, The room had a balcony which was a bonus and a stunning view.
