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 KingdomThe hotel didn't accommodate us for dinner, we had to eat out. You should prioritise guests for eating at the hotel first. Also the room key kept failing to work so we had to keep going back to reception. The bar area is very poor for such a big hotel.
Room was lovely and big bathroom, lovely local area

United KingdomWe expected this fine old building to be as beautiful inside but it was very bright, with lots of chrome and a neon colour scheme. The bar area was loud and echoey with no ambience and not very relaxing. Breakfast was basic. the grounds were lovely but hard to know where to walk without fear of being hit by a golf ball - it would be good to identify some safe walking routes. I think this is a functional hotel for golf, health club members and corporate events but not for a romantic couples night away!
The room was in what felt like a basement, below ground level which made it dark. The room itself was fine with all the usual facilities.

United KingdomThe breakfast was pricey with no option of a continental. £13:00 is dear if you just want a piece of toast or a croissant with a coffee for breakfast. you have no alternative, as there nowhere nearby. ( I think the hotel knows this)
The Room was ok, but the staff were fantastic and couldn't have done more for us, especially Tina who gave us really good with her advice about trips in the surrounding area.

United KingdomThe heating and also the bed, were 2 single beds put together, wasn't ideal. I would have preferred a double bed.
The heating set up within the room was a letdown. I contacted reception, during the first night, to complain about the low heating felt throughout the room. The hotel sent a staff member to the room. But the heating wasn't warm enough overall.
