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 KingdomThe room was tired in the decor department, albeit well equipped with en-suite, hospitality tray etc.
The public areas (bar, restaurant, reception) all exceeded expectation, with a warm and luxurious atmosphere. Food in the restaurant was very good at both dinner and breakfast. On site secure car parking was a bonus. the hotel is very well located to explore Stirling centre.

IsraelThere a real bad smell in our floor when we arrived. It was was mostly gone later that day but still was very umpleasent. you can tell the age of the hotel and I don't expect it to be new and shiny, but I still think they can improve the guest experience with some basic additions like a bin in the bathroom or a glass to keep out toothbrush in.. small things I felt were missing
The locations is great and the price was very fair.

United KingdomLike most hotels currently it, felt a little run down and slightly shabby. There was no brush for the toilet, and one of the bulbs was popped, in the bathroom. Also I hate those self feed conveyor belt toasters, that take 4 passes to get half cooked toast.
Loved the room, it was very spacious and warm, and the staff were really helpful. The hotel is really central in the heart of Stirling, well within walking distance from the Station.

United StatesAll the furnishings were very shabby and worn. However, if they renovated the whole hotel it would probably have cost a lot more for the room. The bed was a little uncomfortable for us. The bottom flat sheet didn't cover the mattress properly so the really old mattress cover was glaringly obvious. The comforter was pretty thin. There wasn't free wifi in the rooms, which was kind of inconvenient.
The hotel was fine for our one-night stay, with a reasonable price. They were very kind and helped us open the slanted transom window. The room was spacious with a couch and chairs. The bathroom was very good.

United KingdomThe room I had did not have an opening window and the air con was broken. For once, it was a very warm day and night in Stirling, so not good when trying to cool down.
They always serve up an excellent buffet breakfast, and are in a great location for the centre.
