Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomMy room felt very small and nothing more than a hotel room at half the price. I know there are really nice rooms in the hotel, but mine did not seem any better than other rooms I've paid 70-100 a night for
The hotel itself was lovely, the staff were all nice.

United KingdomBeds were soft. It is in an old building which meant that sound proofing was not very good. We could every step taken across the floor of the room above us.

United KingdomDisregard for data protection- insisted on an email address at check-in because ‘it’s policy’. No PIN or signature taken for payment, dealt with as an online payment. Grumpy reception staff.
Location is excellent. Room comfortable although quite noisy as it faced GreySt and Mosley St. Breakfast good though rather expensive and in a windowless basement.

United KingdomThe lift is very small. Can just fit 2 people with suitcase. Access for disabled may be an issue as stairs to lift and also stairs coming of landing to the room where I was at.
The beds are comfortable and kept clean. Bathroom good size. Good size of TV. Staff are friendly. Location in city centre. Close to station and town.

Breakfast was great! Lovely choice of cooked options. Between the 4 of us we had a Full English, Eggs Benedict, Eggs Royale and Eggs Florentine - all were cooked to perfection! Plus great choice of pastries and cold meats and fruit on the buffet. Really comfy beds. Fantastic location between the city centre and The Quayside

United KingdomA light for the shelf where the kettle and drinks are located, or to be able to pull out the shelf. As it was quite dark and not much room to pour the kettle.
The room was excellent comfortable, clean and roomy. Plenty of storage space. Great to have complimentary water and hot drinks. Even though it is in the heart of the city the room was quiet. Will definitely go again.

United KingdomI was asked whether I'd prefer a twin or king-size bed set-up, I requested king-size and it was twin. Not a major problem as I was on my own, but why give the option if not going to follow up on it?
The receptionist was incredibly friendly and helpful.

United KingdomOnly really one plug socket near the bed and it was halfway down the bed which was disappointing. Bed was a little small but it was a generic double bed so couldn't complain too much. No sanitary bags or shower caps - something I may just come to expect at this rate in age but they are massively convenient to have.
The reception team were amazing, super personable and incredibly friendly. Really made the first impression of the hotel a 5-star one. Didn't catch their names but every interaction with them was brilliant. The downstairs bar is very nice for a drink and reasonably priced, decent discount on drinks for guests too which is a bonus. Rooms were a good size with little to no space wasted which is great. Location was absolutely perfect for us, nice food spots moments away and not having to trek right up the hill after going to the quayside is a big plus.
