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.).

Room was very large and really nice. Really comfy bed. Massive walk in shower. Tea,coffee and a small fridge. Great location. About 10 minutes to the Abbey. Free parking. We had a great stay.

United KingdomNo dressing table and large mirror in room was very smeared. Bin in bathroom had no lid and was rusty.. Plus there was no shelf in the bathroom to put your toiletry bar. Overall it was clean enough but things like the lights and lamp shades and bed side table needed a good clean. The kettle was full of limescqle when we had a drink which was off putting. But there was a good selection of tea and coffee. Big window in room was nice and lovely view but no privacy when getting dressed. Towels weren’t large enough and quite rough.
Location was good and the views of the abbey were nice. Parking at the property was a bonus.

United KingdomSelection of beverages in room could have been better eg there was no ‘tea’ tea - I’d brought my own, luckily. Just a couple of sachets of milk. Given the class and cost of the room, and the fact there are no meals/breakfast attached, i would have hoped for better selection/availability of somewhere to store snacks. Or maybe just fresh milk and a fruit bowl (and regular afternoon/breakfast tea). Small factor.
Room beautiful: lovely view, very comfortable and quiet. Really glad I paid extra for the four-poster option. Host Arthur welcoming and friendly and available when needed - found temporary solution to dripping shower tap. Parking onsite (The thing that swayed me to choose this place over another I’d shortlisted). Very clean, really appreciated this.

United KingdomBathroom was extremely small and the shower had little pressure although the water was lovely and hot. Traffic noise quite loud being on a main road and as it had huge stone window frames I think little could be done to counteract this without losing the character of a lovely Bath house.
Fantastic location. 5 mins walk straight into the heart of the city and ideal to watch Bath Rugby. Room was huge with a gorgeous bed and chandelier, and a brand new carpet. Exceptionally clean. Parking was a great bonus. Great value for money. Would definitely recommend No 17!

United KingdomA welcome pack would have been useful, with leaflets, perhaps list of good local restaurants, idea of what was available to do in the evenings. There was a typed list of attractions but supported by leaflets etc would have been useful as a visitor new to the area. Maybe a guest book in the entrance hall, as others could share their experiences on what to do in the area & good places to eat/drink.
Fabulous location in flat walking distance to Bath. Very spacious, warm but cosy. Bonus with free parking space for duration of stay.

United KingdomIt's in an excellent location to walk into town, with a lovely view of the Abbey from the window (in the four poster room). The room was very comfortable with TV, sofa and tea making facilities. The room has an en suite, the shower does have a significant step down (so not suitable for all). There also wasn't a fridge as listed in the room details. I would definitely visit again and would highly recommend.

United KingdomLimited plugs near the bed, no usb ports. Awkward shower to get into due to wall and doors. Not the best water pressure in the shower but good enough. We had two black and red/orange ladybugs in the room. Not blackout room.
Good size room, sofa great. Parking for one car. Relatively quiet room looking over green Hotel next door does an excellent, relatively cheap (very good value) breakfast. They also do dinner if you want something close.
