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 room was comfortable and clean, and the breakfast was delicious! There's nothing more we would have wanted. The location is absolutely perfect, just a quite 10 minute stroll along the river out of the city centre. This is the second time we've stayed at St Mary's and we see no reason to look anywhere else on our next visit to York.

FranceOur room was a bit small. We didn't receive the details for checking in and the code for the door because we had no WiFi that morning. It would be better to send this information sooner.
Very friendly staff, specially the lady who saw us standing outside after the checking in time and came back to let us in even though she had finished for the day. The breakfast was superb and there was plenty of choice. The guest house is very near the museum gardens, just a five minute walk.

It was a average size bedroom with a large shower room/toilet. Breakfast was full English with a variety of cereals and fruit and yogurt with plenty of toast. St Mary's is located a 10 minute walk to main attractions and shops.

United KingdomThe rooms need a bit of an update although they were still very clean. The bed was a metal frame so a bit squeaky and I really don't think you should have to pay additional £10 per night for parking as this should be covered in the cost of the room.
An excellent location for walking into the city centre. The staff were amazing, particularly Caroline who was lovely, funny and very helpful. There was plenty of choice for breakfast and nothing was too much trouble. Particularly loved that the tables were allocated so no stressing in the morning as to where to sit when busy. The room was a good size and parking right outside the front door was great.

United KingdomBreakfast was amazing and I have to give a very special mention to Caroline aka Queen B. She made the stay!!! Nothing was too much trouble. In all the hotels and B&B’s I’ve stayed at I have never met a more friendly and helpful lady than Caroline. There’s a lovely river walk or a walk through a beautiful park to get to the town. We will definitely be back!!!
