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 KingdomIt was an extremely hot day and we couldn't open the window (I think it was broken) and the room was unbearably hot. We did find a fan but didn't make much difference. The rest of the hotel/pub was much cooler.
Staff were very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was lovely and the rooms were clean. Great location as we were going to a birthday party at Welwyn Sports and Social club which is just up the road. Nice walks from there too.

United KingdomWe spent a week at the White Hart Hotel owned by Tom & James Bainbridge. As should be expected, a 17th-century coaching inn has all the charm and character of a period property. So it is not modern, but it is fully functional and beautiful. All the staff were excellent, welcoming, attentive and genuine. It's great to speak with staff who are passionate about their work. From making cocktails to the fantastic food in the restaurant, the housekeeping was perfect, which made our stay a pleasure. The location is perfect for a small quiet break as Welwyn is a walk or bus ride to Welwyn Garden City, or Welwyn itself has plenty of shops, bakeries, cafes, pubs and walks for a few days.

PortugalUnfortunately the room had not been cleaned for our arrival. This was obviously a mistake on the hotel’s part, but they quickly corrected the situation and were very apologetic for the error. This is the only reason that it did not score 10.
Excellent staff. Very good breakfast. Good location for what we needed. Room was spacious.

United KingdomOur room (number 2) didn’t have a window, just a skylight directly over the bed. On summer mornings when the sun rises early, this makes sleeping difficult for those who prefer a dark room. Suggest taking an eye mask!
