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 KingdomBeing an old building the windows didn't shut properly so it was quite noisy from outside in the.morning.
Would recommend the breakfast. It was wonderful and set us up for the day. Plenty to choose from. Would also recommend booking a table at the restaurant in the evening. Food was amazing!

United KingdomPlastic cartons of milk in the room 🤦♀️must go! Please offer guests a small jug of fresh milk on arrival. My bedroom was warmly decorated with designer wallpaper an thick linen curtains-sumptuous bed Small ensuite fine for me but if you like more space in your shower ask for a different room. You offer the finest choice of Coffees/Teas & delicious chocolates/biscuits. Very appreciated. Shame about the plastic mini milks.
Beautifully decorated for Christmas, a welcome open lit fire to come down to in the morning. Elegant refined Character English hotel well furnished with antiques & arts. Easy walk to shops. Helpful polite smiling staff & a really nice touch to receive a Welcome letter offering help/directions with parking/help with bags if needed. Breakfast was just a treat so nicely presented Excellent menu/attentive staff and stunning dining room with swags of Christmas greenery & warm white gentle fairy lights. Thank you!

NetherlandsThe bathroom ceiling had some water damage, as well as the wooden skirting boards. The bed was a bid too hard for my liking. But nothing very noteworthy.
The atmosphere was really great. The common room with the fireplace was lovely and everything was very cozy. The breakfast was very good as well. The staff is very helpful all day long.

For Supper we had Kids menu comfort food!, The Bar menu was too much like restaurant food. after discussion with very nice staff lady she came back with Kids menu. 2 other hotel guests came by whilst we were eating and commented on our food choice and asked how we had got our fish and chips and a burger !!! After driving some of us do not always want a formal dinner in restaurant.

United KingdomWe couldn't get the shower to work in our room. The coffee machine was leaking water. The service at breakfast was very slow, appeared to serve one table at a time.
The choices of coffee and tea was excellent, probably the best we've ever had. The bed was extremely comfortable. The food in the restaurant was very good and good choice of wine. Very accessible for the shops and restaurants on Burford high street.
