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 didn't get the opportunity to have the breakfast or evening meal and would like to do that. I didn't realise how close it is to the Wookey Hole. It is literally at the entrance, and I would like to go back to do that too..
The parking was good, directly in front of the hotel. The room was large and clean. The beds were comfortable.

United KingdomReception staff weren't very welcoming and seemed more concerned with chatting to each other. No one told us about the games room on arrival so we only found out on leaving which was a shame. Shower over bath was temperamental and shower head needs descaling to stop water coming out on a funny angle and drenching the room. We had a twin room and the beds were on wheels and moved at the slightest touch which was annoying. Dead spider on windowsill.
The room was clean enough and pleasant. Great location and price.

United KingdomAll good (take note of my comments above though)
We had a disabled room, as it was the cheapest option. I wasn't sure it would work ok for a real disabled person? The soap dispenser was too high to reach when I the bath which would have proved difficult for someone with mobility issues. Also, no shower attachment - I've had two disabled members in my family and I think they'd have struggled.

United KingdomRooms could do with a little tlc, but nothing too much.
Great location, and in a lovely setting. Staff from our arrival were friendly, helpful couldn't have done anymore to help us, even let us check in early. Bar in the evening was well stocked and great prices, very chilled out and relaxing. Breakfast was fantastic, lovely, attentive and helpful staff on hand for any questions. Overall, room was very clean, as was the whole hotel. Would definitely stay again.

United KingdomConstant low level humming noise (we were in room 33), didn’t affect our sleep, disappointed not to be in rooms next to each other. Confirmation seemed to suggest we would be but only applied to our anticipated arrival time. Got to request bath mats from reception, only realise when you’re getting into the shower and then puts you at risk.
Location, parking, ability to eat in good, food and service was good. Checking in and out efficient.

United KingdomBed was really uncomfortable. We ended up sleeping on top of the duvet, so we had a bit of padding. Think it needed a new mattress. We've stayed at the same hotel and had a much more comfortable bed previously.
Great location, staff really helpful and friendly. Great to be able to eat in their restaurant too

United KingdomThe location is great, although watch for narrow roads and deep pot holes. The room was huge. But what really makes this a great hotel is it's team. So friendly and helpful and really kind in my hour of need when I blew my car tire. As it was Sunday, nothing was open mechanical wise and they helped me book for an additional night without having to move rooms.
