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 KingdomSide of Bath quite high to climb into for a shower - but I have a sore knee at present so may not normally affect me. Waitress at breakfast leant right over me to reach a dirty plate, whilst I was still eating. My husband had finished but I had not. Not impressed by that at all.. Perhaps a bit more training would benefit the younger members of staff.
Great stay. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room clean and comfortable.

United KingdomWe had breakfast included free. If I’d paid for it, I wouldn’t be happy as it resembled some plastic food you get in a kids toy kitchen kinda thing. There are loads of places close by that do a much better breakfast - spend your money there instead.
Location - great. Room - great, spacious, clean - we were on 12th floor and had great views.

United KingdomThe price on parking at the hotel was £25 for 24 hours but you could park 5 minutes walk away for half the price.
All the staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Lewis on checkin was great, he explained everything to us about the hotel and all it's facilities. Breakfast was lovely and there was plenty of choice. I asked if they had any veggie options and minutes later they brought us freshly cooked veggie sausages. The hotel is only 5 minutes walk to the shops. The room was large and spacious and had everything you may need, even a toothbrush. There were umbrellas available to hire in the reception area which was great idea as I had forgotten mine. Overall a fantastic stay.

Location great being close to main train station, plenty of selection during breakfast . Even with it being a mid week stay the breakfast was fresh and hot as some breakfasts I have found have been overcooked or dry from being standing for a while so very happy . All staff very friendly and helpful.

United KingdomBooked a twin room via booking.com but when we arrived it was a double bed. Was told it’s only a request when booking. This needs to be sorted, if I book a double it’s because that’s what is needed. Luckily I wasn’t staying with my 17 year old son, as this would definitely not have been acceptable.
Excellent location for the arena and eateries. Clean and tidy and friendly staff. Nothing too much trouble, in fact they sorted our room from a double to twin very quickly, although they weren’t sure if they could to start with
