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 KingdomBar prices rather optimistic…. As in our case, would have been happy to stay in hotel for drinks and probably food but “pushed out” to find somewhere more in line with price expectations.
Very impressed with staff, building and facilities. Excellent breakfast.

IrelandI was at the front of the hotel and there was a very loud hum from outside which started at 6.45 am on Friday morning and continued until almost 8am. I have no idea what it was but sounded like an oil delivery which took forever. My colleagues at the back of the hotel didn't hear a thing so I would request a room at the back next time.
Breakfast was good if you were down early. I ate at 7.30 on one morning and the selection was excellent but at 9 am the following morning there was very little to choose from. Scrambled egg and mushrooms finished and no croissants etc. Ended up having a sliced of toast and a cup of coffee. Staff were lovely and food in the restaurant was great. Location was perfect for the convention centre and Harrogate is a really lovely town. I would stay here again.

United KingdomThe check in desk was on the other side of the main bar so when we checked in around 7pm we had to ask and wait for some while for someone to check us in. The single room was a little dirty and very thin walls between rooms, kept us during the two nights with people walking about and creaky floorboards and even snoring from the room next door. Breakfast was average and long waits for the hot food to be replenished
Amazing location and the staff were super helpful, the bar area was lovely

United KingdomWe were a bit confused as to whether we had to use the automatic (computer) booking-in system or could book in at reception. The reception area is based at the bar and although there are signs to reception we were still uncertain, and I think other people weren't certain either.
The food at the hotel was excellent, both breakfast and evening meal, with a varied menu. We were most impressed with all the staff who were friendly, and very helpful. A very enjoyable stay.

United KingdomWe were in room 133 and although the room was decent I was disappointed that the window was frosted and we were unable to even see what the weather was doing or even see any sky. As I was paying for 2 rooms because I took my sister and brother in law away as a thank you, I did ask for front of hotel facing rooms which they got and were very pleased with , so we felt a little peeved to have the back room with no outlook at all.
Lovely hotel. Excellent staff. Beautifully refurbished . We have stayed here twice before but this is the 1 st time since most recent refurbishment.
