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 room (no 5) and bathroom were nicely furnished but both were small. The only other thing was they seemed to be clearing the drains or emptying the cesspit in the morning which was really noisy and the smell was truly awful when we were checking out. Clearly a one-off or very irregular thing so shouldn’t put anyone off - we were just unlucky and will go back.
Lovely inn with friendly staff. The highlight was the food, which was fabulous for dinner, we had the tasting menu which was excellent, and for breakfast, which was delicious!

SpainI had to go home
In literally 100’s of Inns, hotels and accommodations I’ve stayed in, this is in the top three. Beautiful surroundings, great external and internal ambiance and a hospitality that is maintained throughout your stay. The food whether lunch or dinner is imaginative and strives to surpass your expectations. Breakfast is the parting gift. This is not a plastic five star emporium but the heart of Yorkshire given generously to you and it only asks that you return again. I accept that challenge

United KingdomWifi was a little intermittent when busy and didn’t work in the room, but it made the stay even more relaxed being away from the outside world!
Perfect location nestled in a beautiful valley Room was beautiful, outside bar area was great. Restaurant stunning, we went for the taster menu and wine flight- worth every penny. Breakfast was excellent! Little touches made all the difference- Nespresso machine, chaperone to room, chocolates on departure. We will definitely be back!

United KingdomWe didn't realise that we could open the overhead windows until the last few minutes of our stay and there was no soap/shampoo/etc in the room initially (though this was quickly remedied upon requesting from reception).
Fantastic food (we had two breakfasts and a spectacular dinner), friendly staff and all of it in a gorgeous setting. Really couldn't have asked for more out of our two-night stay at Shibden Mill Inn.
