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 KingdomLovely hotel. Spacious family room, with mini kitchen in the lounge area. Beds were rather uncomfortable and the shower room was a bit small and awkward, but the room was otherwise fab. Nice breakfast, very good quality food, but only allowed to select one option from the menu (plus hot and cold drinks), no separate buffet area for cereal etc. Enjoyed a very nice evening meal in the hotel restaurant, too. Very pleasant, helpful staff.

United KingdomThe Hotel is 90% there, it just needs some finishing off, who owns the Hotel needs to spend time, 1 hour in every room and look at the walls - there are small marks every where, the room doors need touching up there are paint chips on all of them, the bathroom - grout is missing and never been applied, mastic needs repairing, again marks on walls, tile on shower has drill holes where shower has been moved and not been plugged, shower curtain creased where fitted new without ironing, Table in lounge has marks on it, part of laminate flooring missing. in the reception and hall ways there are paint spots on the floor.
The Hotel Team - Excellent friendly and professional, The Grounds, The building is beautiful and great Location. restaurant food are all very good.

United KingdomCould be so much better if just a few small things were put right Like getting a cold breeze in the dining room every time the front door is opened. A proper double wardrobe in our massive room would have been nice. No lift to get to the 3rd floor!

United KingdomThe room I had was not finished to a good standard. The shower was either too hot or too cold. Brocken tiles on the floor. Bath dated. Bath was better due the separate taps. There were blinds in the bathroom but they were not reachable - bathed in the dark as I was not comfortable. The tap in the kitchen was not secure. Not enough coffee. The aerial into the TV was faulty - after wiggling it around it worked. The windows rattle in the wind. Not a fan of the very long corridor, seems odd.. No Electric Car charging.
Location to my office, character property, quiet

United KingdomI don’t think there’s anything that I didn’t like. I would say though it would be really helpful to know in advance which rooms have a shower cubicle and which have an over-the-bath shower. This is particularly important for people with mobility issues or disability access issues. I think more rooms with showers, rather than baths, would be a good move.
The breakfast was great and the staff, very friendly. The room was clean and very good value for money. I arrived late, and the night Porter was extremely friendly and very helpful. This was the same man, I believe, who was so helpful over the phone too, when I rang in advance.
