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 KingdomPeople in next door bedroom left their tv on all night which kept my wife awake virtually the whole of the second night's stay. She should have rung down to reception as it was happening, but didn't, so I was only able to report it to reception in the morning of our departure. They apologised but that was that.
Nice big room, bed and bathroom. Spa also good. Enjoyable breakfast and evening meal in restaurant overlooking the golf course.

United KingdomGrumpy staff at one of the bars, flat lemonade, overpriced bar food, dated decor in corridors. Children are only allowed in the pool until 10am, seems unfair as adults are hogging the pool at the same time but they have all day to use the facilities

United KingdomIs a bit out the way but worth it for the price. there was a problem with the card machine but they went out of their way to resolve it. Dinner portions were small. The place is massive so is a bit of a maze.
Room was spacious and a lovely view. Breakfast was lovely. Dinner was small portions but tasted great. Was excellent to be able to use the spa and pool. Staff were all very friendly. Great value for money.

United KingdomNeeds maintenance work, the balcony had some many uneven slabs such a risk, also bathroom could do with a lock for my personal opinion. Had an opened biscuit packet with the tea tray.

United KingdomThe spa facilities were limited. At one point there was a lot of people in the spa, and no loungers or chairs left, so I had to sit on the floor (not really the relaxing spa experience). There is a huge part for 2, very cold showers! I feel that space could be used better, or even have a couple more loungers in there. Not enough toiletries, we had to ask for more shampoo and shower gel as 1 sachet was not enough for both of us for one night!
The location is beautiful and the rooms were very clean! We managed to get an early check in, which was a bonus! Breakfast was lovely and it was nice to be able to check out at 11am. I had left behind my earphones and they were kindly found and posted back to me by Lel!

United KingdomNothing I can say I dis liked. If I was going to say anything certain aspects were a little dated like the dinning area and some of the furniture in the rooms.
Tasty and Very Filling exactly what was needed for the drive back home :) Had lots of options for both continental and cooked breakfast. The cooked breakfast was cooked to order which i personally always prefer.

United KingdomRoom cleanliness, bed linen could have been better. More loungers in the spa would have been ideal, perhaps booked slots to prevent overcrowdedness.

United KingdomThere was a fine crack in the handbasin, the heated towel rail wasn't on & it would have been good to have bottled water available. One of the bulbs in the bedside lamps wasn't bright enough. A few more hangers in the wardrobe would be a bonus!
Everything about our stay was excellent. The staff were very polite, friendly but professional. There was a very good choice of cooked items for breakfast as well as a wide selection of cereals, croissants etc. Well furnished room with twin beds, armchairs, table, desk etc. The spacious bathroom was well appointed with an effective shower in a roomy enclosure as well as having a bath. A very high standard of cleanliness.

United KingdomThe spa areas were nice and clean but a bit dated.... the changing room was very old and had safety tape in a few areas to protect it from further damage. Also I would have preferred a buffet breakfast as the breakfast on offer is decent but small Finally, the shower in our room was terribly slow... I could have spat faster than that but all in all was still manageable. Was not a power shower that I expected
The location is amazing! Luckily for us, the sun was out and it made for a beautiful day watching golfers. We took a drive down to Thame and had a nice walk and had a lovely meal. It's small but quite a bit to choose from. The room itself was divine and an added touch for my husband's birthday, the staff ensured that we had a lovely room with an added happy birthday cake and card! The bed was big (I think we had an executive suite) and very very comfy. The room and hotel in general was SPOTLESS. The bathroom had both a shower cubicle and a bath with a heated towel rack.
