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 KingdomIt was so lovely and lot bigger than we were expecting! You have your own little apartment with everything you could need, the owners even provided a book with lots of helpful information (taxi numbers, bus info, take away numbers, nice walks to go on etc). Communication with the owners was very easy! We were arriving late at night and self check-in instructions made everything so easy. Loved our stay here!

Location for Alton Towers is perfect. Right distance away from the park and from Uttoxeter for picking up supplies. Very warm and welcoming meet and greet by Joseph who let us know all the information we needed. Apartment was perfectly equipped with all the essentials. Rooms very comfortable with amazing paintings on the walls. Kids loved it. Free WiFi also which was very handy as I had zero reception with EE Hot tub was perfect for soothing tired legs after a long day at Alton Towers. If we’re ever visiting the area again, we’ll definitely be staying here. Highly recommended

United KingdomAll good, nothing at all that I didn't like...
Heywood Hall is great, it's in a lovely little village, close to a pub and 15 minutes from Alton Towers. The room was lovely, impeccably clean, very well equipped kitchen and furniture wise. The welcome was lovely, the room was very comfortable and had everything I needed and more. For the price this is much more enjoyable than staying in a budget hotel in my view. Great to be able to make my own food, relax on the sofa. The bed was very comfy and the shower was great too.

IndiaNothing, everything is perfect for your stay at Heywood Hall.
We booked 4 apartments for our group of 16 for Easter break and had amazing time at Heywood Hall. Our 4 days mini vacation was worth every bit at this themed, self serviced, lovely property. About Host- Can't thank Joseph & Alison enough for being such an amazing & lovely host. They ensured our stay was relaxing and comforting. About the property - These are thoughtfully decorated theme apartments, with fully furnished kitchenette and clean rooms and washrooms with all the necessary toiletries. They also provided milk, juice, chocolates and cookies in every apartment upon arrival. For kids, soft toys were kept in rooms and games in the common area. The property also has a hot tub which we booked beforehand. Overall, the property is located in an amazing quiet location of Denstone which we recommend to stay for a short trip and staycation.
