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 KingdomRestaurant very long wait for food over an hour for the first course and nearly the same for the second course. Main dish not for me just be advised to ask if it is over spiced as this dish wasn’t as not everyone likes hot dishes having said that our other main course was fine. However the cooked breakfast was good.
Location good and good parking. Room good with nice bathroom.nice swimming pool.

United KingdomVery tiny minor issue, room service breakfast arrived late. Wouldn't usually bat an eye but was a rare occasion where I had a deadline to leave would recommend you accomodate a further 15 mins for room service breakfast. The staff lady on the front desk was so apologetic and refunded the room service charge for this too so I really can't fault them at all (which I felt terribly guilty about) The restaurant is an excellent space, so I would probably not bother with room service anyway next time.
The facilities were great, staff always really helpful and the greeting was exceptional. The food was brilliant and so were the selection of mocktails. Staff go above and beyond as much as possible and we will definitely go again.

United KingdomThe main receptionist (gentleman with glasses) was not friendly or approachable. We arrived an hour early coming from a long distance and thought they may be able to let us check in early but he was abrupt and said no. He didn’t give us option to sit and wait in the waiting area and we had to ask him- so not great customer services. The water was freezing cold in the main bedroom shower at 5am- i would expect hot water 24/7 in a spa hotel of this standard. my husband went downstairs to reception area and everything was closed no staff available. Tv was tiny and old - not a smart tv so couldn’t watch anything but live tv . Spa facilities get booked very quickly so we could not get a couples massage as only one slot left .
Myself and My husband visited The Malvern for an overnight stay. The spa facilities were good (not huge variety) just one main pool with with jets and small one attached to it. The spa host Sarah was really friendly and approachable. She gave us a tour of the spa hotel and made us feel welcome. Also India was attentive and warm at breakfast. Breakfast was decent- we had the egg royal and pancake stacks, coffees were nice too. Bedroom was average and size was ok.

United KingdomI had a lovely time, arrived a bit early but they allowed me into a grab a drink from the bar while my room was being made ready. The facilities as ever were clean and well maintained and my room was nice. Had dinner and breakfast and both were well made and delicious. Had a male facial treatment and Katelyn did a great job, even with my craggy face, would happily go back for another one. I had done a long walk around the Malverns just before this and really was a nice recovery break after.
