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.).

Immaculate hotel with excellent facilities. The hosts ( Julie & Alex) are incredibly friendly, and go out of their way to make sure you feel at home. Lovely freshly cooked breakfasts. The hotel is super clean, and the on-site parking and bar are real plus points. Location is ideal for all local attractions. Perfect place to stay in Scarborough. 👍

What wasn't there to like about this hotel. It exceeded all my expectations, you couldn't wish to meet a nicer couple, you didn't want for anything, room was spotless, lovely comfortable bed, best night's sleep I've had in ages, and the breakfast was outstanding.

United KingdomI can't think of any negatives.
Julie and her husband Alex are really friendly and welcoming hosts. They both went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. Hotel is spotless. Lovely big bedroom. Fantastic breakfast with lots of homemade extras. Alex is a great chef and therefore breakfast was a delight. Another bonus for me was free onsite parking. That is a bit of a luxury in Scarborough

United KingdomHosts were absolutely superb, cleanliness outstanding and a terrific hearty breakfast with lots of choice including some delicious home made produce. Really appreciated the little touches such as tea/coffee on arrival and the parting shortbread gifts. Would love to visit again and wouldn't have any hesitation in recommending to anyone wishing to stay in the North Bay Area (only a 5 min walk). Perfect for Scarborough Open Air Theatre. Top draw - 10/10

United KingdomNothing, everything was Absolutely brilliant.
PERFECT AND FANTASTIC in everyway, from the hosts to the breakfast, facilities, and location. Julie and Alex were the perfect hosts, so kind, helpful, and caring. Breakfast is the best we have ever had, cooked to perfection, served hot with plenty of choice. The room was absolutely lovely, so clean and decorated to a very high standard very comfortable bed and pillows with a brilliant bathroom with a very good shower. The hotel has a good bar and lounge area for chilling and relaxing. Free parking. I could write a full book on how brilliant this hotel is. The hosts Julie and Alex made our first stay so wonderful and memorable. We met them as strangers but left as such good friends. We are going back very soon.

We received a lovely welcome on arrival and immediately felt very comfortable to be staying at the hotel. Julie and Alex are passionate and experienced hosts and provide a quality service, great breakfast, very clean and well equipped room and are always available for a chat. We highly recommend The Alexander Hotel for all these reasons and also a good location.

United KingdomTo be honest we were cold the heating came on 7 till 8 am in the morning and around 7.30 till 9.30 pm in the evening.it said in the hotel book to feel free to alter the heating control in your room but the only control was on the radiators and the heating wasn't on. Also in the book it said you wasn't allowed to bring your own food or alcohol in the rooms I have looked on booking .com and the hotel website and found no mention of that. I felt awkward because I had brought some alcohol. Don't like to break rules should really be on the websites.
The food was nice and it was spotlessly clean the owners were friendly and chatty obviously work hard and are proud of their hotel. To be fair the lady did say they are normally closed at this time of year. But on the positive when the heating was on it was great.
