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 only thing that could have been better was the lightening in the room. It was very dark / lights were very dull and it made getting ready exceptionally hard. The setup was fine for a couple, but if you were travelling with a friend, you’ve no privacy in the shower!
The hotel is lovely. Very modern and great bar / restaurant. The room was comfortable and clean. Staff were lovely.

United KingdomDisappointed that the roof top bar, which was a "selling point" for the hotel, was closed on the two evenings of our stay!
Well located for the train station and for getting in to the Centre of York for cafes, shops, restaurants etc. The complimentary drinks voucher as a "thank-you" for not requiring housekeeping during our stay.

United KingdomI didn’t notice that the roof top bar/restaurant is closed on mon/tues so that was disappointing for my stay as I only got to go up there quickly on the Weds afternoon before I left. The hotel was very warm on the nights I stayed, air con in the rooms but not sure what was going on across the main building. I think for the price, breakfast should be included.
Location - perfect! City wall just literally outside the hotel. Nice enough away from the hustle and bustle of main central area yet just a 10 min walk to most things! General aesthetics of the hotel were great and met expectations shown on the site. Really liked the touch of a “drinks voucher” if you opt out of room cleaning for an eco friendly approach. Fridge in the room. Staff super attentive and approachable. Local amenities really close by (local supermarkets)

United KingdomRooms are modern but not practical. Nowhere to sit, except on the bed. A chaise lounge is in the room, but you can't sit on it as it's under the tv cupboard, and you hit your head. Bedside tables, but no cupboard or drawers. Only 2 drawers in the wardrobe. No shelves. There was heavy rain during our stay but nowhere to hang our wet coats up in the room. The bathroom was lovely and modern, but again, not a shelf or a hook. Nowhere to put wet towels, except on the small radiator, or the floor. On arrival we were asked if we wanted our room serviced, bit shocked, why wouldn't we? Realised its obviously to reduce cost - hotel cost, not ours. Most hotels ask you to not change towels every day. No suggestion of that, but as there is nowhere to leave your wet towel to dry, you obviously need fresh towels every day. Rooftop lounge not open Mon/Tue. No other bar available.
New, modern and clean. Location was good. Breakfast was good, albeit fairly expensive. Great to have onsite carpark, but again, expensive.

United KingdomThe difficulty I had in your hotel was with the lighting/electrics in my room. I found it very difficult to know how to switch on the lights. And some automatic lights came on, but went out when I was still using the cupboard.
