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 KingdomI would have to try really hard to think of something that I didnt like. Never been to Ely before and it was an experience all round.
Location on the side of the Great Ouse was lovely. Cruisers and narrowboats right outside your window. Several places to eat literally next door in both directions. Staff were great and Lily who handles your calls and queries was top notch. Real customer service and much appreciated.

AustraliaBedroom needed a little bit better lighting- was a bit dark. We also would have liked a freshly cooked breakfast- scrambled eggs were not edible with no other choice.
Great position on the river. Wonderful restaurants around. Parking available. Comfortable room.

New ZealandHeavy, noisy doors from bedroom across hallway (only 2 metres) to bathroom, but I felt it was noisy at night/early morning.
Super location, overlooking the river and narrow boats. Close to couple of eateries. Smaller range of cooked items, but well presented breakfast. Good towels etc - large.

United KingdomGluten free might offer more but plenty to eat even if gluten free with cooked items and cereal and fruit and yoghurt.
Cooked breakfast scrambled eggs and tomatoes excellent. Gluten free cereal available maybe could offer some gluten free bread on request to make more gluten free friendly. Lovely fresh fruit dishes and yoghurt. Nice location facing the Ely Marina. Bathroom spotless with hairdryer and bath robe for private lockable bathroom. Plenty of towels and complimentary shower stuff. Iron and board in room.

United KingdomNothing to see here.
I first stayed at the Riverside about 12 years ago, my memories of that stay were very positive and no doubt influenced my decision to return rather than try another guest house. An excellent choice I have to say and have repeated congratulated myself on my decision. I have rather belatedly glanced through the reviews and not found a bad one, that tells you all you need to know.

United KingdomBreakfast was very good but it was the same every day. It would have been nice to perhaps have mushrooms or a different cooked egg. I can’t eat scrambled egg. However many folk only stay for a day or two whilst we stayed 4 days.
