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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Lovely welcome from smashing hosts, love the rooms, all so clean and well kept...fantastic breakfast as well. Location is great, close to a lovely park and museum, with a pleasant distance to walk into town or to the Whalebone arch / Cook monument. Added bonus of having a parking space for each room.

Going home 😔
Gwen and Lee are lovely people. Always genuinely interested in your plans. Home for the week was a huge, freshly decorated room. I really like being able to order my choice of breakfast the day before, as well as control the heating. The location was perfect for exploring the coast just north of Whitby, as well as Whitby itself, and space to park. We even discovered somewhere nearby for some of our evening meals. I hope we will return.

My only gripe would be that, if you are somewhat challenged fitness wise, there is only one ground floor room and no lift. The climb to the third floor attic rooms is a bit of a challenge! Also, the location is at the top of the West Cliff area and (although there is a service bus which runs to town, which can be found just round the corner) walking to and from the harbour/town area could be tough for those who have difficulty in walking distances - especially uphill.
Breakfast was fantastic every morning, The food is freshly cooked to order and the quality was consistent throughout for all of us (a family of five in three rooms). The hosts were friendly and happy to advise on places to eat etc. If you are fit, the location is good, being in the West Cliff area and handy for the beach and other attractions there. The rooms are spacious, well equipped and spotlessly clean. Guaranteed parking outside the front door is fantastic! Would definitely recommend.

I would have preferred a slightly larger shower, it was easier to wash your feet separately than try and bend down, I know they are contemplating trying to make the bathroom bigger at some point because we chatted to them about the Guest House. This would not stop me staying in this room again though.
Room was v large and beds comfy, shower was on the small side but everything was clean. Breakfast was fantastic, bacon was thick cut and v tasty. Eggs we had both scrambled and poached on different days, I wouldn't normally have poached but my husbands looked so good I had to try and they were excellent. Great that it had parking. Owners were lovely, friendly and helpful.

We only stayed for two nights to break up a journey North, but I wish we'd booked a couple of nights more. The family room was comfortable and cosy, the bathroom well appointed with an amazing shower. A nice 10 minute walk from town in a quiet area.
