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 KingdomI understand that there is always a pre-warning about the fact that the hotel is a party & wedding venue & this is the first time that I’ve fallen foul of this.It was the first time I’ve paid more for my room than previously & the first time I have been on the ground floor.There was a wedding & my room was right next to/among all the celebratory rooms so it was noisy until midnight.I just thought it would have been better to put wedding guests in that room & me further away!However,I did book late…. I am just reporting,not complaining
I have stayed before so I know that your rooms are lovely,airy,warm & comfortable.I like the decor & view of the gardens. Usually good value.In a quiet location some distance away from the town centre,but with a couple of local shops & pubs within walking distance.

United KingdomWe booked a standard room, not a budget room. Bed was a double but quite small and very uncomfortable. Didn't sleep very well at all. The room, Room 12, is dated and missing a bed side table so had to rely on using the floor to put stuff on. Shower was good even though it was over the bath.
Good food, staff were friendly and helpful, good location.

United KingdomThe breakfast was a mixture of under-cooked, spot-on and over-cooked food which should not have been served. I left most of it as the grilled tomato was burnt on the cut-edge and rock-hard underneath, the bacon was over-cooked and difficult to cut, the poached egg was spot-on and the black pudding was too dry. Not good overall!
Very comfortable bed.

United KingdomThe staff was multitasking in various roles, you're lucky they are so dedicated to not making mistakes. Please hire more and allow them to focus. I liked everything otherwise. I believe the pub could add more dining space and attract more non guests, make it a destination in the area. You should offer Valentines packages and other seasonal experiences for couples too.
Superb staff at the desk. Spacious room. Luxurious decoration around the bed. Tasty breakfast. Strong menu at the pub.
