How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Would have been nice if electric towel rail was working; bathroom chilly and towel rail hadn't been dusted. Odd, because the rest of the room seemed spotless.
Excellent value for money. Fridge and microwave an unexpected bonus, as was loan of plates and cutlery for eating in. Our host was friendly and informative about the city.

Nothing of significance. Some of the town is looking desolate now, but Gloucester boasts a superb cathedral, and the extensively developed docks and quays areas are appealing. We found some good cafes and restaurants, and there are some antique and vintage emporiums that are well worth a visit. A shame that the Gallery in the Museum was temporarily closed.
A very comfortable and pleasant hotel, highly individual, with interesting and thoughtful features. My room was excellent, lots of space to lounge, a very comfortable bed. The staff were friendly and welcoming to exactly the right degree. Very good breakfast. Free parking.

The only drawbacks were minor. Recent repainting of woodwork on stairs close to our room, though very clearly declared with "wet paint" signs, was slightly off-putting. There was no breakfast menu, and there was less choice than at other broadly similar hotels where we've stayed.
Though we were booking at quite short notice, we were able to obtain a suitable room. The online booking system worked well including fulfilment of a minor request --- Earl Grey tea! On arrival, we received a friendly and helpful welcome. Our room was spacious and characterful. We had a very comfortable bed. Everything in the room was clean and in good working order.

Had to try and attract the attention of staff at breakfast time, but that might be because it was quiet. More choice at breakfast buffet would have been nice such as fruit and yogurt, but not essential and we certainly didn't go hungry.
We had a spacious triple room on the top floor. The building is old with slightly uneven floors. Decor a tad dated but not scruffy and everything was clean. Good cooked breakfast. Hotel has its own car park at the back which was convenient. There was a nice lounge area with an inglenook fireplace which was lit on one of the nights we were there.
