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 pre-Wedding Party took precedence .... understandable from an economic point of view but it would have been good to have known prior--- after all it was a Thursday night in April not a weekend in Summer. A Free drink was offered freely as compensation for the slow service in the a la carte restaurant... which was appreciated. We believed the Premium hotel indicated 'no small children' ....There were a number in the pre-wedding party that were quite naturally noisy & although the party were separated by a screen it was not conducive to a 'fine dining' experience. There are no lifts & the best rooms are on the 2nd floor. ( Staff did offer to carry cases.) The selection of 'malt whisky' was very poor ( limited to one bottle which was a 'most peaty' type) Setting up for breakfast in the dining room before the a la carte dining was finished...it felt like being pushed out.
Grounds & cleanliness immaculate with a lot of thought. Staff very courteous. Excellent views. The location was excellent.

United KingdomOnly issue was a disappointing lukewarm shower which - despite much adjustment- would not get hot! Large bath was however suitable compensation.
Superb location, immaculate gardens and well appointed rooms with great views. Excellent breakfast / dinner in the Orangery dining room.

United KingdomThe car park was either under development or was being renewed and was a bit rutted and uneven and was a little walk to the main entrance which was situated at the opposite end of the hotel.
Beautiful building/grounds and the staff were all lovely, helpful and polite.

United KingdomThe reception was in an office and you had to knock on the door to see someone. (There was a prompt response though). There isn't an a la Carte service in the evening Monday and Tuesday so you have to go to Ely. This wasn't a problem but required a taxi. Not many restaurants in Ely are open either. (Would recommend Poets House).
Fabulous location and wonderful old property beautifully renovated in keeping with the historic era. Our room was an excellent size with a stylish bathroom. Views from the back bedroom windows onto the ponds and gardens. The terrace was located at the back and had a stunning view of the Cathedral. The gardens are really well landscaped and exceptionally planted and maintained.

The venue was amazing, nothing was too much trouble. The bed was one of the most comfortable I've slept on and the breakfast was very good.

United KingdomThe quality of the breakfast did not meet our expectations, as portions were limited, as was variety. The bathroom pipes were noisy and some toiletries were not provided such as toothpaste.
Beautiful property with lovely grounds. The location is ideal for a weekend away. The room was very spacious with a large bathroom. Overall very cozy. Desk, restaurant and cleaning staff were friendly throughout our stay. Dinner at the property restaurant was tasty.
