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 KingdomAt times there was a strange smell of rotten eggs, possibly some sewage issues. Creaking floorboards above our room but it is an old hotel so maybe to be expected.
Clean, comfortable, warm room with nice bathroom and good shower. Free parking was a bonus and buses stopped outside the hotel which took you into centre of Edinburgh which was about 4 miles away.

ItalyHowever one morning we decided to get the breakfast at the hotel and we were a little disappointed with it: we paid 6£ to get the unlimited food option, but the selection was really poor (just classic english breakfast items). We also paid 3£ for unlimited drinks thinking we could've get some orange juice or other hot drinks from the machines, but there was just americano coffe and tea.
Overall the stay was great, room was cleaned and tidied up every morning. Location was great, bus stop literally just outside the venue (25/30 min ). There is also a Coop not too far, to grab some snacks. Everything was good, and I would recommend this place for a short trip to Edinburg.

United KingdomProperty had had a major renovation since I was last here so was looking forward in seeing the improvements as had looked a bit tired last time, but was disappointed as apart from a lick of paint on the walls couldn’t see much difference. The downstairs bar and restaurant hadn’t had any work done and still looks tired….
Location, is close to attraction I was down to Edinburgh to see and has easy access to the city centre 20 minutes on bus which are very frequent.

FranceThe shower is on the small side. Our room was at the very end of a seemingly endless corridor with steps up and down, which made hauling the luggage an unpleasant experience.

GermanyI liked that the breakfast area was really big and not crowded. The breakfast itself was just ok, not many food choices Some breakfast options tasted really strange, the bacon was like eating cardboard. Other than that, I have nothing bad to say about my stay.
Right outside the hotel was the bus stop with direct access to the city center and airport, which was very convenient. Really liked it here. It felt cozy and welcoming, the staff was friendly, the room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Slept like a baby, which I usually don't do in hotels.
