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 KingdomSuggest a wood shower mat as guests managed to soak the fabric version. Also a sign to guests to put shower head in the corner as it was dripping out over the edge making floor wet. Perhaps a hand towel/paper towel would be good in the bathroom if you just pop in to use the loo
Comfortable warm room, with coffee/tea making facilities. Nice view across the high street. Welcoming landlady and homely atmosphere. Assorted breakfast, perhaps continental addition for those of us watching our waistline. Conveniently situated near car parks and some interesting shops. There are some great restaurants for all tastes, Thai Basil is my favourite

United KingdomShared bathroom...the booking site does not really emphasise this well..however, the host and atmosphere made up for it and let's be fair it is a building dating back further than 1642, so lucky it was not a bucket

Had a pleasant stay. Staff welcoming and helpful. Good cooked breakfast. Room clean and comfortable. but in need of a small bit of cosmetic touch up (spots of flaky paint on 350 year old walls is inevitable!). Bathrooms (not ensuite unfortunately) very clean, good shower and plenty of hot water.

CanadaThrough no fault of the Swan or its owners, there was the idiotic practise from the Thornbury township, to have construction work on the street occur from the hours of 11 pm to 3 am in the morning…this again through no fault of the Swan and its owners. I would also want to say, that the scope of this construction work will have an end, and will not continue indefinitely as I understand it.
The owners were very caring and very interactive people…the age and interior of this building were amazing. I could tell that the owners and staff were committed to service and taking care of their occupants.

United KingdomCannot really find anything to fault. En-suite bathrooms are apparently planned, subject to planning permission.
V nice historic coaching inn. Room was very clean and well equipped. The separate bathrooms (As advertised) were v clean and the shower powerful. The staff and the dog were friendly and the owners very hospitable. Evening meal was good pub food and good value. The included breakfast was very good. Overall amazing value. Car parking is a minor issue but the T1 bus (every 20 mins) gives you easy access to Bristol and at £2 who can complain.
