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 KingdomI have no complaints - it's my preferred hotel to stay in.
I love the uniqueness, culture and period features. It’s a wonderful relaxing and quaint experience which shouldn’t be missed. The personal service, aesthetics in each room, views outside makes it so much more enjoyable and relaxing. The breakfast, is great value for money and has locally sourced products. Dinner in the restaurant is very pleasant and is definitley different to a normal mainstream hotel. The variations of rooms are very modern, stylish and to a great standard.

United KingdomNothing really, everything was lovely. We had jsut booked room only so next time if we stay we will try the breakfast.
What was lovely was that we were upgraded, so that was a lovely surprise. And the room was great. Also, we hadn't planned on eating at the hotel in the evening because we knew we would be late back. However, even though we were late back we just went and asked if there was any chance of having a meal, even though it was only 10 minutes before they stopped serving and they said yes, which we were very grateful for.

United KingdomA little disappointed with the room bearing in mind it was recently refurbished. It was a very small room and everything seemed to be quite old and needing replacing. A handle was missing on the wardrobe door, this would have definitely have been noticed when cleaning the room!! Had to ask at reception to speak to someone working at breakfast, they told me someone would be around soon and just to sit and wait! Thought this was pretty rude as I’d already been waiting 10/15 mins and not one member of staff had been seen in the breakfast area. In the end, I had to knock on the door at the kitchen where I found the person working the breakfast shift just to be chatting with the chef in the kitchen - very unprofessional. It’s a shame as I’ve visited for Sunday lunch before (pre-covid) and the service & staff were fantastic but didn’t get the same experience with this stay.
Great breakfast, lots of options of hot & cold options and I was able to get oat milk on request.

United KingdomWe stayed in the family room with 2 bedrooms, one room had a double bed and one room had 2 single beds. This was great, but there was no communal area or sofa in any of the rooms to gather together.
The staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The room was clean, with plenty of storage space, lovely views and a good size tv. We ate in the restaurant in the evening and the food was really good. The breakfast was a buffet with cooked breakfast, pastry, toast, cereals, fruits, tea and coffee. It was very nicely prepared and tasted great.

United KingdomThere was nothing we didn’t like. The decor is a little tired in places, but really not bad and clean throughout.
Lovely setting and very friendly and comfortable hotel. We had a lovely stay, thank you. There was a wedding happening on the first day of our stay, but this caused no disturbance to us at all.

United KingdomBreakfast was very disappointing. What was called coffee was disgusting, food at breakfast was barely warm, pastries not cooked properly and the eggs were not cooked - white of the eggs was snotty. When we gave feedback the staff on reception listened and said they would refund for the breakfast, we explained this was not what we wanted, we want breakfast to improve and coffee we could drink. The second morning breakfast was no better. We found the staff very good but unfortunately the breakfast quality would prevent us staying again. This is a shame as we intend to return in the very near future.
The staff were very helpful. Couldn't do enough for us.

United KingdomI didn't like how the breakfast serving time was 7.30am-9.00am as I feel it should be until at least 10.00am. I didn't like how the one day the breakfast was table service the one morning as I had food on my plate that I didn't like to have. I also experienced a bit of banging noise the one night and waited for it stop until I could go to sleep. Also the room phone is really outdated.
I liked the food for breakfast and the food at the restaurant. I liked how the breakfast is included with the room. I liked the self-service for breakfast. I liked the room and the en suite bathroom. I liked how there were enough drawers to put my clothes in and a coat closet and space to put my shoes.
