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 KingdomNothing really, got what I expected for the money.
Comfy bed, big TV, powerful shower. Good food — handy as there are few other options in Kegworth!

United KingdomWi-fi didn't extend to our room but the management are aware of that and have upgrades coming.
A clean, comfortable and good-sized room in a very friendly hotel. Staff are more than helpful and accommodating. The restaurant serves very good, well-priced meals. Will always go back when we need to be in the area!

United KingdomOne reason why I picked this hotel was that it advertised a restaurant, with opening hours on the website showing as open through to 9 pm. Looking forward to a relaxing meal and a drink I was not impressed on arrival to be told that the restaurant was not open that evening. I was even less impressed to then be told by the receptionist that there was a chippy just up the road, so I wouldn't go hungry! I don't know if the closure was a one-off, or whether it's always closed on a Sunday evening (the hotel was very quiet). Fortunately I found a pub who went out of their way to prepare me a meal, even though they had stopped serving food an hour earlier!
Good value for money. The room was well prepared and perfectly acceptable for an overnight stay. The location, with easy access to the M1, was also good.

United KingdomThe bathroom is still a little dated and had some damaged tiles, but the shower was powerful and all clean with good towels. For the price, it was no great issue.
Pleasantly surprised given the current rating on booking.com. I booked due to closeness to the airport for an early flight with a good price. Although a dated appearance through reception and corridors, the room was more modernised, clean and spacious with good facilities. The food choices were much better, fresher and enjoyable than at chain hotels we've stayed at pre flights. It is close to the airport and parking was free. We will definitely use again.

United KingdomWe only had one pillow each and they were very very thin. I asked if there were any more and was told these were being delivered Monday so there weren't any available. The hotel was fairly empty and I wondered if there were pillows available in other rooms we could have had. This led to an uncomfortable night's sleep.
Nice location for what we needed and in a quiet area. There are amenities a short drive or walk away. The room was a good size and had most things we needed. Everything was clean.
