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 KingdomCoffee at breakfast each day was not great, neither were the deep fried and overcooked vegetarian sausages.
Room excellent, sea view, warm and comfortable. Staff were welcoming and friendly, pub is excellent, really quirky, ale is kept well and good choice.

We loved walkng along the shoreline, the tides of the sea crashing into the bay by the harbour. Quaintness of the area. Brilliant. The staff were all very accomodating to my dietry requirements. The Chef was supreme with changing meals to suit my diet, making desserts that were wonderful. I felt very spoiled by everyone in the hotel. Thankyou x

United KingdomWe arrived back at the hotel after 11.30pm and found the front door locked. There was no sign sign at the door, nor had we been advised that after 11.30pm you needed to go to a rear door in the car park and ring the bell dor the night porter to give you access.
The breakfast was very tasty and very filling.

United KingdomA lovely place, very quaint & interesting accommodation, but sadly the location was a little uninteresting once we'd visited Bamburgh Castle. Not many shops, nothing to go out & about for. However, we did only go for the Bamburgh Castle tour, so the one night stay served our purpose. The hotel itself, the staff,the food, were all faultless.
The staff, the hotel food, the hotel itself is outstanding, a real historical gem, like staying in a museum, we loved it

Fanatastic place. Full of character and characters. Rooms are fine - very comfortable beds, spacious bathroom. Only downside for me personally was having to climb two flights of narrow / bendy stairs but that speaks to my age and state of disrepair rather than a criticism of the property. Ate in the restaurant on the night we stayed and food and service were excellent. My wife is not English and is not a natural fan of English food but she devoured the fish and chips - which were as good as i have tasted anyway. Being a lifelong fan of beer and bars I loved the bar in the Old Ship. An excellent selection of real beers and spirits ( I enjoyed the 7 Bridges IPA and Jamesons preand post dinner) and sociable staff and customers. Very rarely ( never ) spend time writing reviews but The Old Ship really does deserve it.
