Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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 KingdomThe description and details Booking.com provided for the room was not correct. The room we were given was an attic room and also nice and comfortable it was not one of the larger rooms with facilities identified by Booking.com. All standard double rooms were the same price so we had not been charge wrongly for the room. If we return we will book direct to ensure our room choice. Our score reflects that and not the hotel.
Location was excellent next to the Riverside Park. A short walk into town. Good facilities attached to the hotel i.e good bar with food. Attached fish and chips, snacks, coffee takeaway we think is ran by the family business. Outside seating and Alfresco Bar and Restaurant. Breakfast was good , we had a lunchtime meal in the bar which was good value. We are out in the evening. The bar supports a good selection of real ales which is good to see. Staff were very friendly and the chap who took us to our room and then worked behind the bar ( and other associate roles within the business ) went out of his way to offer us information and make us welcome. Also the lady who I suspect was the owner (sorry did not catch her name) served us breakfast was also very friendly and helpful.

United KingdomI had to ask for the yoghurt for breakfast and other fruit besides the prunes offered would have been good. The dining room is a bit gloomy. Some more colour would help.
Had an evening meal which was hot and good. The breakfast was more than I wanted, good choice of cereals, plenty of bread to toast. (I didn’t have anything cooked) Friendly service.

SingaporeThe room was very hot and windows couldn’t be left open because of flies coming in. Installation of a screen - perhaps a temporary one if it’s just an issue in the summer - would be very helpful to allow for better airflow.
Lovely location right by the riverside and the park, with very friendly and accommodative staff. Food in the restaurant was great - perfect fish and chips and a really good pint of proper Yorkshire bitter.
