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.).

SpainIn general, the stay at Strawberry Bank Hotel was great! The people was really nice, the breakfast was delicious and is located in a very calm area, which allow a great rest. At the same time, is well connected to town through public transportation and is not far at all. Really good!

United KingdomThere were no mattress or pillow protectors on either of the beds I was given. I would expect an undersheet as a basic minimum. I was given a room with twin beds when I complained. It wasn't the most comfortable bed to sleep in and I gave up trying at 0430. I had left the hotel by 0530 to go home. It didn't help that the room was really hot and didn't cool down even with an open window
The hotel is just 10 minutes away from the NEC so is perfectly placed for an overnight stay. It was next to the pub but not noisy. The rooms looked nice and fairly well decorated. A complaint on the night was dealt with.

United KingdomMouldy shower head, absolutely disgusting. Cleaner walking down the corridor 8am banging to every door as "she's checking which room checked out". But two people at the reception. Can they not communicate????? I was in the shower when she entered the room. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. Also strongly don't recommend restaurant at the premises. Horrible, also unprofessional staff and service. Food expensive, came out completely burned. Server didn't know what gluten allergy is.
Manage to book a room for good value so didn't expect much and room definitely meet our lack of expectations...

United KingdomI was in room 207, the room is basic but comfortable. I would have liked some bedside lights as it was the big light or no light, and a reading light would be ideal, and a black out blind. A hook on the door for my towel. I had to put the kettle on the floor to boil it so a little more thought on layout and it would be great. The bed had a dip in the middle but it was comfortable. Upgrade the TV to smart TV. From a team perspective, housekeeping knocked on my door 3 times at 8.50, 9.30 and 10.10am which if you offer an 11.00 am check out, they should be checking with reception if the guest has departed.
The property is ideally located with a newly refurbished pub and restaurant, the outside areas have also been refurbished and they are stunning. The team were so lovely and the food was great. The breakfast was one of the best I have had.

DenmarkI didn't like the leaking roofs, and dripping water in multiple hallways, can't help but think about the potential mold in walls and carpets. I did NOT like the bed in my room, had to curl up my quilt and sleep on that, as well as the spare pillows, because the bed was rock solid and uncomfortable.
I liked the cosy atmosphere, as well as the restaurant atmosphere, I only had breakfast, I'm vegan, so a bit rough on the stomach with little plant based alternatives, but I acknowledge the fact that the hotel doesn't have many vegan guests. The vegetarian sausages were good, staff was really nice and quick to respond with any issue.

United KingdomThe hotel is in need of a refurb (think 90s Travelodge), but for £42 per night, it was good value.
The bar & restaurant are excellent. The accommodation - for the price we paid - was good. There is ample free parking. The restaurant staff were very good.

United KingdomNot much to pick on really. There was what appeared to be an iron burn on the carpet and I found a metal pin on the carpet that could have caused some damage, the flow in the shower was poor which resulted in me having to hug the bar to which it was attached to get a decent rinse. The waymarking to the dining area from the residential zone is also poorly marked as I got lost along with several other patrons (a plaque or something on the door saying this is the dining area would help as the door looks like a secondary entrance to the kitchen or staff room)
The location was nice, pretty straightforward to get to the motorway. Close proximity to a train station should you choose say to go to the NEC or Birmingham TC. The food was nice, the wait staff was very attentive, special recognition to Lily as she was very attentive when I went to the dining area for my evening meal, making sure I wasn't kept waiting if I wanted another drink ect. The elder ladies that run the breakfast in the morning were also very polite and well-mannered, I felt welcomed, and breakfast was pretty good as well, presented in a buffet style. Overall a nice venue with decent food and a good location, prices are reasonable with a nice selection in drinks. The local co-op is 5 minute walk away with affordable prices should you want to buy some extra supplies. Views from my window were spectacular, too bad I was too tired to watch the sunrise.
