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 came back to our room after a day out to find that all our belongings had been removed. The mystery was quickly resolved by a member of the staff who gave us back all our belongings in an adjacent room as there had been a problem with the water supply to the bathroom in our room. With many apologies from the staff and a free drink at the bar the incident was over and resolved to everyone's satisfaction. We were then able to go back to our old room which by then had been fixed and we could continue to look at the great views from our bedroom window for the rest of our stay. The staff were very friendly, helpful and professional.
The meals were very good and very generous.

United KingdomNothing at all!! Everything was, as always, very slick yet relaxing and welcoming!!
This was our fourth or fifth stay and it's always a bit of a sanctuary for us and the staff always make us feel really welcome! Our stays are always very relaxing and enjoyable and the quality of the food is great, especially the full English breakfast morning! We enjoyed really good banter with the manager throughout our stay and are really looking forward to when we'll be back once more.

United KingdomTaxis were very expensive. Obviously not hotels fault but would be good if they advised you to book your Taxis before your stay. Very limited local Taxis. Had to use one from stroud which cost £90 for a 5 mile return journey.
Very accommodating. We had to add an extra guest at the last hour and they were amazingly helpful

United KingdomThe smell in the bathroom and the tight fit when getting in and out of bed. I kept knocking my legs on the thick wooden base of the bed, ending up with big bruises over my legs.
We had a problem with our room, and after speaking to Oliver, he was very apologetic and found us a much better and bigger room.
