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 KingdomLovely friendly staff on arrival. We had booked 2 rooms and they were adjoining which was brilliant. Nice comfy rooms, quite spacious too. The breakfast was great, check out was easy. Plenty of space in the car park. 10 Minutes to the Harry potter Studio's. Perfect. Stayed in the hotel for evening meal. The menu has a very basic choice and food, but not expensive. O'Niell's is nearby, but was very busy.

United KingdomThe property was located within a 10 minute drive to Harry Potter World. Parking was only £7 for the night which was easily paid at reception. You also got breakfast for free as it came with the room. This included hot breakfast options (sausages, bacon, scrambled eggs, beans, hash browns and tomatoes), cold selection (croissants, muffins, toast, cereal, yogurt, porridge) then hot or cold drinks, all help yourself buffet style. Very good value for money and definitely recommend.

United KingdomWe weren't aware of parking available at the hotel until we'd already secured parking at the station. It wasn't clear at booking or on the website.
The location was brilliant for accessing the station for trains into London and the shuttle bus for Warner Bros Studios. Staff were extremely helpful and made us feel very welcome. Rooms were spotlessly clean and comfortable.

United KingdomMattress bit hard for my liking (and we have a king-size at home) and double pull out sofa bed wasn't great for 2 teenage girls.
Excellent location for our visit to Warner bros. Studios (making of Harry potter) Close to train station and also shuttle bus to and from studios. Room lovely and clean (mattress bit hard for me and sofa bed for 2 teens not perfect, but done for one night) Staff very helpful, managed to get early check in which was great as we had had a busy morning and gave us a bit more time before we had to leave for studio Tour. (We booked 4.30pm tour) Breakfast was excellent and set us up for our 2nd day in London.

IrelandWe arrived 30 mins before check in time and had to leave our bags as room wasnt ready. Sausages weren't great at breakfast....this is me just being picky though. I think breakfast should finish a bit later as the times are 6.30-9.30.
I found all staff very friendly, everywhere was very clean and fresh. Our family room was perfect for us. The bathroom was great and shower was amazing. All Dove products in bathroom which were a lovely touch. Very quiet and breakfast was ok. Nice selection of food. The staff cleaning up after breakfast were lovely and friendly also.
