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.).

Staff were very friendly and made us very welcome. I’d had a puncture and was able to leave luggage until car fixed. Friends were given an upgraded room do very impressed.

United KingdomPub area downstairs was quite generic and service was impersonal. However the breakfast was nicely prepared to order.
Beautiful location in the centre of town, near shops, abbey and seaside. The view from the room was glorious, and the room, beds and bathroom were all lovely.

United KingdomThe twin beds eventhough comfortable was alittle on the narrow side.There is abit of noise early in the morning as staff gets ready for breakfast, but that is to be expected staying in a pub.A widow cleaner to clean the outside of the windows would help make full use of the amazing views from the rooms and pub.
Ideal location with fantastic sea views. The area is central for wondering around Whitby. The room was clean,cosy and comfortable.The pub itself was a warm and cheerful place to chill after a day of exploring. We loved our stay and miss The Duke Of York and our lovely little room.

United KingdomThe only downside is the nearest parking is about a 5 minute walk but do not let this put you off at all.
Lovely place to stay and right on the harbour with lovely views. Handy for all the local attractions and the pub serves lovely food and drink. I found the staff to be really helpful and very friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome.

United KingdomThere was nothing we didn't like to be honest. Only thing to bear in mind is that if you have mobility issues then you might want to check with the venue which room would be most suitable for you.
The room was spacious, amazing view, very comfortable bed, good sized bathroom with nice smellies. The room had good facilities including coffee machine, ironing board and iron, hairdryer etc. Staff were absolutely lovely. So welcoming and helpful at check in, breakfast and check out. Really enjoyed the Sunday night pub quiz. Fish and chip dinner was delicious, crispy batter and really good chips. Breakfast was tasty and staff were happy to keen to accommodate everyone's preferences. The room was clean and good value for money.

United KingdomThe sausages were very poor on the breakfast. And have stopped doing there Sunday dinners there new menu was basic and not the type of food I want to eat on a Sunday lunchtime. We were going to stay next year but the price has gone up to much .from £290.00 for 2 nights to £420 same dates. So unfortunately I won't be staying there .

United KingdomThe only slight thing was in our room (room number 4) you could hear a lot of the stools on the wooden floor above us being pushed back & forth which we think was possibly the bar area.. How ever it did stop once the bar had closed.. Orher than that very slight thing we couldn’t fault it..
The Duke of York is in the ideal location in Whitby. Staff were friendly & helpful, lovely and clean, rooms equipped so well.. Enjoyed our stay and already booked to come back next month. Highly recommend staying here.

United KingdomThere was nothing of any real significance to be unhappy about. We enjoyed our stay at the Duke of York Hotel, Whitby.
Staff were excellent; friendly and welcoming. Room clean and comfortable, with a great view over the harbour. Ensuite clean and a good size. Bed a little firmer than our own BUT comfortable never-the-less. Cooked breakfast was excellent and tasty. Rooms were above the bar area, therefore could hear some noise when customers were there, but not a problem and after hours was very quiet. Would very much consider a return if looking for hotel accommodation again in Whitby. Recommended.
