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 KingdomQueen Bed and pillows were very uncomfortable. Too soft for our liking and tarnished our stay a little unfortunately. The furniture in the room was tired and slightly damaged.
Location and city view were excellent for visiting The Glasshouse nearby. Breakfast was very good. Room service was prompt and although a little pricey for what we ordered, the tray charge was reasonable.

United KingdomBreakfast was cold. No option of fried / poached eggs. We could see the chef prepared freshly some pancakes but we weren't told about any fresh breakfast items that could be prepared, only to help ourselves to the buffet. No museli available and when I asked for some, was only given gluton free museli. I would expect to see museli available. However to be be fair; there was a wide choice of other items with freshly baked bread / pastries, cold meats, cheeses etc Room was large but basic with just a double bed, although I accept that was what we had booked. Due to the size of the room a queen bed would fill the space better.
Location looking over the Tyne is great Beautiful hotel, reception, bar areas Leisure facilities great All the staff were very professional and friendly, a credit to the hotel

United KingdomI liked everything and the Hilton had a lovely relaxed atmosphere. If I had one minor problem it was that the shower in our room was particularly ‘over vigorous’ I did not mention this as thought it may just be my perception but when my daughter in law used it she said the same. This did not detract from our enjoyment or satisfaction with the hotel.
The location was lovely, the staff were exceptionally friendly, anticipated needs, and even took time to chat even when busy. Breakfast was lovely with a good selection of choices including freshly cooked options. Very child friendly. And on one occasion I noticed children came to breakfast before their parent and they were chatted to and treated equally as well as the adults. On one occasion whilst being shown to our table, I stopped to say ‘hi’ to our son and grandchildren. We were being seated at the other end of the dining room on a particularly busy day but another member of staff had noticed and asked if we would like to be seated nearby as a table had just become free. I felt that this was particularly observant of her but great customer service. Having a husband with Alzheimer’s some places can be challenging but there were disabled facilities next to the pool which meant I was able to be with him to get changed and meant he could access the pool facilities with the rest of the family.
