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.).

The availability of a fridge and a microwave in the room, plus the option of a general purpose room for food preparation. The close proximity to the centre of town. Tesco 2 mins walk. Bus stop for Cheltenham outside the hotel. Despite being on a main road and full capacity the hotel was very quiet.

we were entirely satisfied with our stay.
A well-situated, very reasonably-pricedhotel with excellent parking (a rarity in Gloucester City Centre!). Good sized, spotlessly clean, comfortable room with excellent supportive beds. Our room at the back of the hotel was very quiet and peaceful with a good shower and toilet. Coffee and tea facilities were provided and generous. The hotel operates in an eco-friendly way regarding room management and we liked this. The hoteliers were friendly and very informative about Gloucester regarding local sights and good restaurants as was the useful picture gallery in the hotel. Provision of a microwave and small fridge was appreciated as were the modern plug sockets for charging phones and laptops. Thank you

I felt that the meeting area where the TV was situated was to dark.
The Edward hotel was a very homely environment with friendly helpful staff. The room was on the ground floor as requested . It was spacious with its own small en-suite. The room was by the side entrance which lead out to the garden , and also into the dinning area where breakfast was served. The hotel did not have a restaurant as such but it did have a microwave and a small fridge in the room. This was not a problem for us as there are plenty of restaurants and pubs within the town centre. The hotel was clean and you do not get disturbed with room service and cleaning. The hotel issues you with a key to which you let you self in with at the front door or side entrance which also opens your room door. It also had a bottle opener on the key ring which was a nice touch. The hotel was centrel to the city centre and the areas where you can visit such as the cathedral and venues for weddings and parties. Lovely little hotel which we would stay in again.

Would have been nice if electric towel rail was working; bathroom chilly and towel rail hadn't been dusted. Odd, because the rest of the room seemed spotless.
Excellent value for money. Fridge and microwave an unexpected bonus, as was loan of plates and cutlery for eating in. Our host was friendly and informative about the city.
