Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThe property is in desperate need of renovations, please change the windows they are terribly old and worn out. Also the bed and mattress were not hotel standard, half the mattress was sagging and softer than the other half.
Very nice property with lots of nature, big drawing room and garden sitting area

AustraliaWe had a fridge in the room which didn’t work. Struggled to get the heating to work adequately. (Coming from a warm climate we felt the cold) The entrance to the hotel was via a small flight of steps which were a little awkward with heavy suitcases. We didn’t eat in the hotel as we didn’t think the options offered value for money. Little extras like water and biscuits were not always replenished
We were upgraded to a suite which was lovely. The hotel is ideally situated with a gentle stroll into Bath through the Sydney Gardens. (Uphill coming home but not too strenuous) fantastic view of Bath from our room and lots of space in the room. Spa and gym facilities were excellent and we made the most of the pool and outdoor heated spa. Free parking !

United KingdomThis is not really a 5* property. We had a problem with an electric light fitting clicking all night and the lack of soundproofing from the adjoining room meant the next door TV was clearly audible. Breakfast was decidedly average.
Spa facilities are excellent. Front of house and restaurant staff were great.

United KingdomA 5* spa resort it is not . It’s a very nice hotel with a pool and spa facilities. If you’re looking for the “5* spa experience” then in my opinion this falls short of that . No beer on tap ? What’s that all about . The bar felt a bit makeshift knocked up in a nicely decorated room .
Liked the hotel and grounds , left the hotel feeling relaxed and rested , location was good but uphill from the town , this should be considered if walking back . A taxi was £7 . Electric scooters for 2 was similar price .

United KingdomReception was not good. We had to wait till half 3( I think) then everyone was there at the same time, so the queue was long. A staggered or self service reception would help. Staff therefore had to be quick, and had less time for individuals. We used the swimming pool, which was good, clean, warm: it is used by local people so there were quite a few children at teatime, and there were no beds around the pool, as every bed had a towel on it: there were more towels on beds than folk in the pool.
The room was large, well appointed, quiet, well furnished. All the breakfast staff were very welcoming, happy to help in any way. Breakfast was good.

United KingdomThe e mail offering an upgrade before the visit for dinner was no upgrade at all. Confusing Wording makes out a £30 meal in the restaurant on dinner, no it’s if you pay £30 then £30 is taken off your bill! So completely pointless and not a good deal!
The location was amazing, just a short walk to get into Bath city centre but also fair completely away from the city. Lovely staff. Amazing spa and treatments

United Kingdomthe main restaurant/breakfast area needs to be renovated. The breakfast itself was not good and one of the ladies did not have strong customer service skills. It did not feel like a 5 star experience although it was good value for money.
Loved the outdoor heated pool. Really enjoyed the massage and facial. There are really nice areas downstairs to have a drink. Most of the staff were excellent.
