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 KingdomOur pillows were rather hard and the view from our room was of the carpark. Although a nice view is not vital, it's always a boon. People tramping past from 5 am, not being noisy, just going past on their way out, a constant stream, meant a good night's sleep was out of the question.
The central position is great. Although the decor is a little old-fashioned, our room was perfectly adequate with plenty of space, it was nice and warm, clean, comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful.

United KingdomIt is a pet friendly hotel, but we couldn’t take our dogs into the bar or restaurant. We had to sit outside which is under cover on a terrace in the smoking area and we don’t smoke! It was raining and a little chilly eating our evening meal outside. There should be a dog friendly area within the indoor restaurant out of the cold and where we can relax to have a drink too. So many pubs/restaurants and cafes are now dog friendly Please amend your policies.

United KingdomSadly the rooms on the ground floor are incredibly noisy, especially when the dining room is open and you can hear everyone walking around. A couple of the towels had long term strains on them which was less desirable.
Location ideal for what I needed and the room was clean and functional.

United KingdomThe only bug bear was the state of the decor in my small room, with peeling wall paper in the corner next to my bed and the base of my bed had chunks missing from the upholstery - which looked tired and shabby (poor first impression for a weary business person/traveler like me). Instructions for the TV would have been very useful as I couldn't get it to switch on - perhaps a loose wire ? I eventually plugged TV into the other socket & got it to come on, but could not work out how to select the correct channels. A bit frustrating. NB. The FIRE SAFETY Poster which should have been on the back of the door had fallen off and had been placed under the hairdryer in a drawer in the dressing table. I believe this is compromising Health & Safety regulations. So I used the Blutak on the poster and reattached it to the best of my ability. PS A sign for the lift on the wall adjacent would be useful as the doors are concealed round the corner - I only found it by accident on my last morning. All-in-all a pleasant stay but a few decor issues would put things right. Kind regards, Many thanks - S Pounder-Bell Stay was overnight 7th May 2024.
The Hotel was brilliant, convenient for my office. The Breakfast was first class, and the service of the staff was very pleasant and helpful. Value for money was great and check-in and out was efficient and without delays.

United KingdomThe rooms and hotel were a bit tired. The TV in the bedroom didn't work, there was an iron but no ironing board, the heating has ancient, toilet seat was loose and there was a shoddy paint job. Mainly cosmetic things but clearly could do with an overhaul to modernize.
Friendly staff and great location. Breakfast was lovely as was evening meal.

On arrival we had been given a ground floor room down several steps they did change it but it was not near the lift. Decor in the bedroom was poor and the shower sealant needs some attention and the handle came of the shower door Screw sticking out of bathroom door lock Tea and coffee but not biscuits

United KingdomHad difficulty in finding the hotel as signage was not that clear from the road. Room was not as indicated on the Web. Room 68 was in the basement with frosted windows overlooking the car park. Did not have the listed coffee machine and the wardrobe had no doors . Not the room we expected but did the job for one night. They state on the key card to book direct for the best rates. When I phoned them before booking they were unable to compete with the rates offered by Booking.com.!!
Room and bathroom was spotless and bed was comfortable. Prices for food and drinks were very reasonable and staff very friendly.. Breakfast was very good with a large selection of food. Would use this hotel again.. Cost was very competitive .
