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 KingdomRoom was quite small and so was the double bed but it was very comfy. The breakfast was good quality but the service a bit hectic and not very friendly.

United KingdomThe over-communication (I must have had 4-5 email notifications prior to arrival) and fact that payment was expected on arrival. I assume these are central decisions by Innkeepers Collection. A pity as it takes the personal aspect away from places such as this.
Staff were excellent. The radiator in our bedroom wasn't working (a boiler problem) so staff immediately provided an electric radiator replacement.

United KingdomEverything fine. Cost of English Breakfast slightly over the top at £13
Room reasonably spacious. Very good bathroom and double shower (rain and rose head) with plenty of room. English breakfast (extra) very filling- you will not want a light lunch afterwards. Location excellent for M6 motorway and Sandbach. Not sure about good value for money. £196 for two nights for two without breakfast was slightly over the top. £175 with breakfast included would have been more acceptable.

United Arab EmiratesBathroom cleaning was never done well. The toilet was not cleaned when I checked in with a bit of brown stuff still in and some yellow liquid dried on the toilet seat. After three days of cleaning the yellow liquid stain was still on the toilet seat.
It’s tucked away in a quiet place and was a very convenient location for me. Breakfast was good.

United KingdomStayed on 1st floor and Some sort of animal was clearly living in loft above. Maybe a squirrel. Needs to be resolved as made noises throughout the night. Internal Security lock on door broke and needs repairing if a single person alone. Staying on first floor maybe an issue for some as steps quite steep.
Enjoyed the room, hot shower, location and near pub. Decor of room was good.
