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 KingdomThe shower enclosure didn't fully close, and the temperature and controls were problematic. The door to the bathroom did not lock.
Attentive staff and amenities in the room (toiletries, coffee, tea etc)

United KingdomThe suite was a little chilly in the evening, heating only seemed to work in the early morning, otherwise we really enjoyed our stay there.
Very comfortable hotel with friendly and cheerful staff. The general decoration was in good order and pleasant, the bar area was very comfortable and welcoming. The food was delicious, menu varied and tempting and the portions generous. Really enjoyed the breakfast. Our suite had a nice view of the bay and the street below, quiet at night, the bathroom was huge with an excellent shower, bed very comfortable.

United KingdomThe only downside was that our room was very warm which made a difficult to get comfortable at times, however we just opened the window and turned the radiator down which helped a lot.
The staff were so friendly and helpful and the food they served was very tasty, especially the breakfast which was great value for money. Would definitely stay here again!

United KingdomI was looking forward to having a nice steak but the menu at the time didn't have one. Sadly the vagaries of Northern Rail and if trains will be cancelled may make this a difficult option to choose in the future when I need to rely on the rail network to get to my work location
the breakfast was very good, it's a beautiful setting for a hotel and very quiet, parking is surprisingly spacious and so close to the local train station which in theory should make it perfect.

United KingdomThe only thing which made my stay slightly less than perfect was the long wait before my breakfast order was taken, despite having booked a timed slot the night before, and the offer of only a single cup of coffee with my meal.
My room in the Pennington Hotel was stunning, with a massive bathroom (walk-in shower and separate bath) and huge comfortable bed. I had a fantastic night’s sleep and woke really refreshed. The location was perfect, just a minute across the road to the estuary and a couple of minutes away from the Ravenglass and Eskdale steam railway. The bar and restaurant area were beautifully decorated and my evening meal was delicious.

United KingdomWould like the option to start breakfast a little earlier, even 6.45 for Cereal & Coffee as some residents work for SL and the last direct bus to Plant is 7.45 which make breakfast a little rushed.
