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 KingdomWe weren't aware that the restaurant didn't serve food on a Sunday evening, which was disappointing after a five hour drive from Yorkshire. We found an alternative place to eat, arriving back at the hotel at 9.00 o'clock to find everywhere closed and in darkness, so nowhere for a drink. The room was beautifully decorated, but was very noisy, which can't be helped, but also the standard of cleanliness was poor. Thick cobwebs in the lampshade, dirty grout in shower and water left in a furred up kettle.
Friendly staff both on arrival and at breakfast. Breakfast was excellent

United KingdomThe bed squeaked when we moved and entirely my fault I should have checked on the size of the bed, My husband and I are not small people and a double bed was rather a squeeze. I booked last minute and thought a de luxe room would have a king size bed.
The facilities were all fine, breakfast and all staff were exceptional

United KingdomWas slightly put out that I was awoken at 5.30am by someone emptying glass bottle bins! Wasn't too much drama and got back to sleep. Unfortunately iplayer didn't work on the TV and the Internet reception wasn't amazing. However I didnt mind too much and these things didn't have a huge impact on what a nice time I had.
Loved the comfortable bed, the lovely big bath and the food was excellent. Slept really well and had a very chilled evening. Was really good breakfast included in the morning and friendly staff. Close to the centre and near local attractions and shops. Really nice place and would definitely stay again.

United KingdomUnfortunately poor drainage and that’s not the fault of the staff or owners.
I booked this for my elderly parents, my mother has had a stroke previously and I advised the team at the Minster Arms, they could not have been more accommodating and helpful, Hannah and her team really went the extra mile to ensure they were both comfortable and looked after.

United KingdomNo dedicated parking meant an additional cost to pay for parking - although a very short walk from hotel. Staff were friendly but seemed stretched in the bar and restaurant on Saturday evening and there was a shortage of ice in the bar for drinks. Expected larger bed in the room based on booking description.
Food was excellent (Dinner and Breakfast) Bar and restaurant had a good atmosphere and it was a good venue for rugby followed by dinner. Room was clean and had everything we needed with the exception of an adapator for charging a phone.

United KingdomLast flight of stairs would be tricky for someone with mobility problems. Otherwise, nothing not to like. Shame we couldn’t park on site but car park opposite was very reasonable.
Very comfortable room, lovely bathroom with walk in shower - all spotlessly clean. Comfortable bed with good quality linen. Nice white fluffy towels. Good range of tea and coffee etc to make yourself and mineral water provided. Nice and warm in the room, good sized TV with lots of channels and Netflix if you wanted it. Breakfast was lovely.
