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 room was quite warm and didn’t have aircon or fan to cool down. One of the pillows had mud stains on unfortunately so just left it to one side.
It was close to where we wanted to visit and easy to walk into the centre. Parking was great at the hotel, really easy and helpful staff, who parked the car for you.

United KingdomSuite was located at the far end of a very long corridor. Hotel looked a little dated. We booked for 3 adults yet amenities were only for two ( 2 bathrobes instead of 3, 2 cups, 2 teaspoons …) We also found the view disappointing ( would have though the views from the suite would have been to the castle ( opp to the hotel location) instead of the side street and the rooftops )

United KingdomWould have preferred walk in shower but only available to accessible room. Not disabled but difficulty with getting in & out of baths. Needed tea tray re stocking, had to ask at reception. On remote, no menu as directed to order room service & telephone not answered
Would have liked twin, upgraded to double & single. Hot water immediate, shower good. Towels white & fluffy. Location perfect, breakfast including vegetarian very good choices.

United KingdomWish there was a bit more storage in the room, draws would have been great for non hanging items. We also had noisy people next to us, not the hotels fault at all but the rooms aren’t very sound proof so if you don’t have particular respectful people next door it can be a bit of an issue. But again, we didn’t say anything to the hotel (we didn’t want to pack everything and move when we spent most of the time out anyways) so I’m sure they would have moved us if we requested it as they were helpful the whole time.
Really close to everything in the area, lovely view of Clifford’s tower, the valet parking was excellent, helpful knowing that our car was safe. Staff were friendly, helped with anything we needed, breakfast was great with plenty of options for all. My fussy 10 year old loved the pancake machine and the bagels.

United KingdomParking is expensive, and spaces are sparce, housekeeping didn't top up the water again on the second day of our stay, seem to find this alot, they want a good impression on the first day, then standards slip.
Location of the hotel was excellent, rooms were basic but had everything needed and were clean. Breakfast was excellent and even had plant-based sausages for vegetarians already out, which is very rare. Staff on check in were very smart and glad to gereet us.
