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 KingdomA couple of additions to the room would make a stay more comfortable: - A couple of glasses/beakers - A fan would also be a great addition as the room was very warm and we had to sleep with the blinds up to feel the benefit of the window being open.
Fab location, beautiful grand property. Helpful staff at check-in, Spotlessly clean. Help yourself breakfast room was a nice idea. Car Park right outside - £4 per 24 hours

United KingdomHotel exceeded expectations - décor great and clean. Breakfast bag was fab and the breakfast supplies room was a brilliant addition and catered for different preferences. It would be really helpful if a microwave could be added but that's just an idea. Brilliant location for the marathon too, shame about the awful weather! Option for late check out for a small fee was so welcomed after being out in the cold and wet for about 5 hours!! Liked the keypad entry to all doors too. Will be back :-)

United KingdomNo hot water in room 102. It was an inconvenience but did not ruin our stay!
Beautiful Victorian building which has been converted in a bold and colourful manner. Great breakfast bag left on the room and breakfast stuff available downstairs. Loved the decor!

United KingdomThe shower would overflow so causing the need to mop the floor with towels.
The Arundell is well placed for exploring Boston, situated adjacent to St Botolph's Church and the Market Square. The entrance and stairways are lavishly decorated, while our room was generously sized, well presented and spotlessly clean. The bed was most comfortable. The provision of a continental breakfast each day was much appreciated as our expectation when booking was solely for the room. The staff were friendly and couldn't have been more helpful. We would definitely stay again if revisiting the area.

Good vale for money. Good variety for breakfast considering this is a ‘DIY’ experience with no staff interaction. Unique decor and a very grand entrance.

United KingdomAlthough the shower looked amazing and indeed was hot and powerful, it leaked out all over the bathroom floor and we had to use one of the large towels as well as the bath mat to soak it up! It say there’s a reception open from 3pm-10pm on my email but there actually was no reception at all just completely self check in. This wasn’t a problem for us at all but maybe for others.
Easy to access the hotel and room with a code.The lobby and stairwell was pretty impressive. We had the exclusive kingdom with city views. The room was really big with cool lighting effects around the bed and a lovely feature wall inside the large rainfall shower. There was a lovely big comfy window seat ( if you could get up on it as it was really high😂) in the bay window overlooking the Boston Church. There was a funny little room downstairs where you could help yourself to a Continental breakfast which was a bonus as when I booked, it stated no breakfast included.

United KingdomUnfortunately, the lift isn't functional. Had we known this, we would have requested room more accessible due to older member in our party. Bit of a struggle to 2nd floor. Hotel will benefit from the small finishing touches of white paint that needs cleaning from the black window frames, and some areas of ceiling not painted and grubby looking in our room. As the hotel has not been open very long, we assume these will all eventually be completed. Maybe a few jobs were rushed to get hotel open on time. These small issues did not detract from our enjoyable stay though, but will just finish the overall look.
Great location to access the town. We only stayed overnight due to visiting family locally. Bonus of continental breakfast. Car park in front of hotel only £4 for 24 hours. Easy code access to property and rooms. Loved being able to close the curtains at the touch of a button, alter colour of lighting. Great size tv in our room and amazing chandeliers in stairway.
