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 KingdomBreakfast would have been better served on order, as precooked and kept in warmers was not ideal although a good variety. Room was a bit tired and could do with an update. It was unfortunate there was a problem with our room with a leak in the ceiling, but a discount was given which we were happy with.
Being central in Winchester was ideal. Staff were helpful and friendly.

United KingdomThe shower door on the tub was not working, and needs to be adjusted or replaced. This made getting to the faucet difficult and I am able-bodied.
The room was opposite Winchester Cathedral. The room was a nice size and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast had a wide range of choices.

United KingdomOnly one double socket in the room which was by the desk. As there were two of us it meant that one had to use their laptop on battery while working by the window which did not last long.

United KingdomParking situation ended up well, but disappointing to find an extra charge applied after booking rooms, and that this could not be booked in advance. Don't need this uncertainty when visiting a place for the first time.
Breakfast n/a. Evening menu a little limited but OK. Staff were exceptionally helpful and patient.

United KingdomNot that I didn't like it but think a bit more tlc wouldnt go a miss, the bed frame was marked, and wallpaper. The bathroom was clean but the tiles on the floor were cracked. The bathroom sink took forever to clear so maybe a blockage somewhere. The bedside table lights didn't work and overall lighting was rather dim
The beds are super comfy and the layout is rather nice. Location is perfect and was just what we were after.

United KingdomCleaning was not perfect, the plug holes in both the sink and bath were grimy and the shower screen was grubby. There were marks on the walls I.e coffee and food stains. The furniture was very worn and damaged. The plug next to the bed didn’t work.
The location is perfect for exploring Winchester, we had a lovely view of the cathedral which looked beautiful lite up at night. The bed was extremely comfortable and bedding was clean.

United Kingdom1. Juggling parking, with Chesil Street carpark. 2. Lost pyjama trousers were not found after I believe they were inadvertently left in the bed and went missing after a room clean. Possibly mixed in the bed linen when the bedding was changed. We were told they were not in lost property.
Location was ideal for what we needed. We didn’t have breakfast.
