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 because I have used the hotel for 10 years or more and know what to expect.
Location close to motorway is ideal for overnight stay when driving from southern England to north Scotland. Breakfast is very well prepared individually. Staff are friendly and helpful. Cosy bar. Enjoyed a very well prepared steak.

A beautiful historic hotel with all mod cons. Excellent staff who are really good at their job and very friendly. Our room and bathroom were warm and cosy on a stormy night. The bar is welcoming and the dining room spacious and relaxed. The menu was extensive and the food beautifully presented as well as delicious. A great break in our journey has now become a destination itself.

Hotels like this are becoming rarer and rarer, replaced by soulless chains, and we are in a poorer place for it. The Somerton House Hotel is as full of character, charm and beauty as the surrounding area. I’m in a superior double room (no 6), and it’s lovely. The fixtures and fittings in the room are of an age, and I hope they never change them. The bathroom is modern. Service is exemplary, personal, attentive and friendly. The food was delicious, not rushed, and I never felt like I was sat waiting. Considering I’m here for work, I’ve enjoyed my stay, and I hope I get to return soon.

United KingdomThe only thing is, on booking.com it states check out is 6am-11am. A staff member chapped our door at 10.20am and asked if we were staying or going because she had to clean the room, I said we were just charging our phones before we left and the reply was ‘and how long will that be because I need to clean the room?’ To my confusion I said I thought check out was 11am to which I got a stern reply ‘no, 10:30am’ - unfortunately this dampened our mood at the end of our stay. There was also black mould in the bathroom.
The property was great and the rooms were clean and comfortable, the bed was comfortable and there were spare pillows and a blanket in the room which is always a nice touch. We had dinner at the hotel and the food was lovely, the staff couldn’t have been any friendlier.

Toilet seat loose and basin tap needs attention. Food was very good and lovely decor throughout building. Would stay again and hope comments help to speed up issues highlighted repairs .
