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 KingdomWe were on the second floor, going to and from our room we could smell cigarette smoke. We ordered cocktails, neither of which the bar staff were able to make. We tried ordering 2 different ones but couldn’t have those either. Ended up with a glass of wine! Ordered desert with custard and it came with ice cream.

United KingdomA little disappointed on arrival as no one on reception and two families stood around waiting for 5 minutes.To add to the disappointment there were two members of senior staff stood in front of reception chatting to another lady.not one of them acknowledge us and we had to ask them to get someone to come to reception..it does not install much confidence that the staff put customers first. Also room service food was not great.my wife’s sandwich was on stale white bread.the chips were not hot just aired and someone had put salt on already when my wife never has salt.
Good location friendly atmosphere

United KingdomThe rooms were clean, very quite although a bit cooler but we asked for extra duvet which were provided. I guess it is a matter of setting the air conditioner in the room to the best preferred temperature. The distance between the hotel and Alton tower...a bit far than expected.
The main queen bed was comfortable but the sofa bed was uncomfortable as I stay with my 3 children, Two teenagers who slept on the sofa bed. The springs in the sofa bed could be felt. Maybe they could improve the quality of the sofa beds a bit. I booed the hotel for the weekend as going went to Alton towers but I think 40min drive back and forth between Alton and hotel its a bit too much on a long day. Otherwise it is a great location.

United KingdomThe room was unbearably hot with air con and windows open we couldn't get the temperature below 23° c . The bar had no choice with draught cider. The breakfast was nice but overpriced. There are a couple of restaurants within a mile that offer breakfast at a lot lower rate. The cost is costing the hotel business as we went out to eat.
The hotel was in,an excellent location ocatuon for my needs. The hotel was clean and tidy, and the staff was professional friendly and smart . Our room was an excellent size. Overall and excellent place to stay.

Like the fact it had a pool, sauna and steam room. The pool is quite small for the amount of people they book in a session though. Breakfast was nice, good selection
