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 wasn't allowed to warm my food on day 2 after a long conference, yet on the first day the staff were really helpful and assisted my daughter to help me warm my food. That experience was disappointing.

United KingdomThere was no dressing table, we had a wedding to go to and it was very difficult to dry my hair and do my make up as the only mirror that was lit was in the bathroom but nothing near a plug to dry and straighten hair, had to stretch wires and stand in the hall looking into the bathroom!! No space for make up by the bathroom mirrors either without fear of it falling in the toilet!! Plates at breakfast were cold!
Great location, easy walking distance of lovely, pubs, bars and restaurants. Lovely hotel, nice green to sit outside in good weather. Lovely breakfast.

United KingdomJust being too close to the stairs.
Breakfast was good. Lots of choice. The room was comfortable and a good size. We could hear people going up and down stairs but they weren't unduly noisy. The stairs were carpeted. A room a bit further down the corridor would have solved that issue.

United KingdomVery cold but appreciate cost of heating. Had a table for 6 booked for dinner but didn’t expect 2 small round tables pushed together. Not enough space for drinks, bottles etc. Also small round breakfast tables very tight with such very large plates! Food excellent though!
Location and long family history of visiting since 1965. Beautiful building and good facilities.

United StatesNothing much to complain about. The USB port in Room 205 didn’t work and I used an electric adapter off a wall outlet to charge my phone and laptop.
The hotel was hosting a wedding reception so very lively on the 20th April and busy. I was warmly welcomed at check in by the employees. My room overlooked a grassy courtyard, was very clean and comfortable and equipped with coffee maker, mini fridge, a desk and flat screen TV. I ate continental breakfast on the morning of the 21st and there was a huge choice of cereals, bakery items, fresh fruits and juices. My car was parked overnight in the complimentary parking lot and that was great as well. Hotel internet worked fine.

Castle
United KingdomThe carpark could be better signposted, the front carpark is easy to get to but small, and we never managed to find the overflow carpark that we were being signposted to due to works happening in the front.
The location was great, being right in the town centre and only a 10 minute walk from the castle. The hotel itself was lovely, nice ambiance and the room was great - a modern bathroom, beautiful with classy tech.

United KingdomWe booked a King Room that was meant to have a large double bed. What we ended up with was called a 'snug' room - so read the decription carefully, as the Booking.com defaults don't match up to the rooms that are available
You can't beat this hotel for location, right in the middle of Farnham, with parking, and the building and garden are beautiful

Couldn't sit on the toilet without shutting the bathroom door (some might prefer this!)
