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 KingdomI did not like the WiFi, it was not secure. I would much prefer that there was a secure network with password protection.
We liked the location, the breakfast and the staff.

Located in an ideal location literally a 10 minute walk into the heart of York. The staff are more than welcoming and will happily do anything for you. Will definitely be coming back!

United KingdomAs our room was at the top of the building there were a lot of stairs to get up to the top. I didn’t see a lift, so if older or with any form of disability I would contact the hotel to discuss a suitable room on the lower floors.
Centrally located in York city centre. Not far from the train station. The hotel had ample parking also if you need it. The hotel room was large, well laid out and comfortable. Great breakfast also.

United KingdomUnfortunately the jacuzzi was not available and when you’ve done a lot of walking a little muscle relaxing in the jacuzzi would have been lovely, but these things happen.
The hotel was very well positioned for access to the city. The rooms were spacious and clean and very comfortable. The breakfasts were just what we needed.

United KingdomThe information about how to access the car park did not include the name of the road so we went into the wrong car park which had a very, very narrow entrance. Tissues in the room would have been good - they ran out just after we arrived. There are never enough places to hang towels in the bathrooms and the window and mirror wouldn't clear of condensation even with the fan.
The room was a great size and the bed was very comfortable. It was so quiet! The bathroom was also a good size and the shower was great. The breakfast was amazing and we really enjoyed what we had both days.

United KingdomWe had a lovely bright spacious traditional room with an unexpectedly modern sleek bathroom. Nice towels and toiletries and a very comfortable bed. The room was very hot but a fan was provided. Breakfast was promptly provided(you order the night before). The dinner menu was limited but good value and very well cooked. Parking was just under £15 but we were glad to pay it as parking in York is hell! A very short walk to the river, the railway station and the city centre Friendly staff. A great stay

MaltaThe chef at this hotel is really amazing. Breakfasts are generous and delicious, but we had a dinner there one evening and the level was something else. The staff are really lovely and helpful, they go out of their way really. The hotel is just a few minutes away from the historic centre, and it's a nice walk passing by lovely little shops. I would stay again at Hedley House.
