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.).

The hotel building and interior were amazing. Staff very helpful, breakfast choices were great. Bed very comfortable and good sized room. The only negative was evening meal, battered fish was mushy. Pie was lovely and mushroom pasta was ok.

United KingdomNothing - it was a great experience!
Traditional yet modern (recently refurbed) hotel, slap-bang in the centre of Hertford. Parking is in a roomy car park at the back of the hotel. Friendly staff. Beautiful rooms. We stayed in a boutique room which had two levels and a sofa. Lovely bar / restaurant downstairs and continental breakfast included with the booking.com booking.

United KingdomThe hotel offered an excellent breakfast, but this was not included in the room rate from Booking.com - if we had booked direct this would be included. It seemed unfair to have to pay another £60 for a cooked breakfast.
The room was lovely. Shower amazing. Bar cosy and beers lovely. We ate dinner at the hotel for the first time in as long as I can remember staying places with work. The pies were delicious. Its a great hotel, really good value for money and better than any of the chain hotels by an absolute mile.

United KingdomThere was no lift. Fortunately, we only had a small case had we had a really heavy one, we would have found it difficult. We thought the staff were nice people but didn't feel they were that worried if we were in their hotel or not. Food was distictly average for the price paid.

United KingdomParking is always very tricky, but the gifted council have made a very poor internal ring road that makes a island out of the Town!
Food is superb, wonderful bedrooms with excellent bathroom/showers. The Service is very good, nice atmosphere, both staff and bar customers are always very nice, very relaxing and interesting historical hotel, simply lovely place to stay at while visiting Herford.

United KingdomA complimentary continental breakfast is included in your room price but a hot breakfast is not! Which I feel is mean especially when you are paying the significant room increase Bathroom very small couldn’t see the room upgrade Booking.Com promised us
Stayed here many times visiting my daughter it has had a major revamp. Which has been a great success but the room prices have risen significantly to pay for the new improvements The rooms are now much quieter and the new decor is very pleasing and in keeping with this very important historical building In Hertford
