How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

It didn't say on the description that it was above a nightclub that stays open til 3am (although we were offered free entry into the club). The curtains did nothing to block out the streetlights so my room was still light all night. We were kicked out an hour earlier than we were supposed too, our booking said 11 and the hotel book in our room said the same, but a cleaner told us we had to leave as checkout was at 10, despite me showing her that it should've been 11, and then there was no one down stairs to talk to about this or even to give back our room keys too
The doormen and the manager on duty when we arrived were very nice, and they accommodated my request for a later than normal check in time, comfortable bed

The hallway outside the room was cluttered with bottles socks just left. The bedding didn’t match it put us off. A lamp was on the floor not on a table. We walked in looked and left. It’s a shame because from the outside the building looks interesting. 60 pounds down the drain.
The location was good that was the reason we booked

Only minor niggles for the price. There was no bottled water (this was listed as provided) but when I realised it wasn't there were no staff around to ask for one. 2 pillows but they were quite flat. It would have been nice to have hooks on the door to hang our towels to dry. Lastly there was a bedside cabinet on one side with a bedside light - but no socket and no light bulb. Just seemed a random thing to set up.
Great location on Ashby High Street with parking available on the road outside 6 pm - 9 am. Our room was a good size and very clean. We stayed on a Monday night, so we had a drink on the way out, but the bar was shut by the time we returned around 11 pm (so no nightclub on a Monday night). Overall it was clean, very reasonably priced and in a great position, so we would definitely stay again.

We were aware that there was a night club on Friday and Saturdays below the hotel on reading reviews, but we weren’t prepared for the sheer volume the music was going to played at. We couldn’t sleep until the club closed at 3am because the base shook the whole room me and my husband couldn’t hear ourself talk to each other over the music.
room was clean and a good size had everything we needed. We booked the room to attend Download festival and was great driving distance away which avoided all traffic. Staff were really friendly.

This is not a hotel any more - everything is outdated, and hallway is used for storage. Is more a place to stay when one stayed too long in one of the two pubs

The electric heater added on the room was not adequate to heat the room. Very cold. People arguing all night and trafficking the corridor, in couple of occasions trying to enter into my room.
