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 bar food was awful and nothing like the menu we enjoyed on previous stays. What happened to the chef who prepared the most amazing risottos and stone baked pizzas? The food was OK as 'fuel' but otherwise very poor and tasteless. Service wasn't great either. Rooms are good but the whole place could do with a little TLC.
The staff are very friendly and the room we had was very clean and spacious, if a little tired in decor. The hotel's location was perfect for us and had free parking (although I gather that's about to change, which is a real shame). Nice outside space to enjoy a drink - and bar prices not too bad for a hotel, especially in Bristol!

United KingdomRoom was tired and had broken fixtures - bed was huge and comfortable but pillows jolly hard. Marks on the walls, curtains were very hard to open and close with stiff pulleys. Quite a noisy hotel with lots of doors to open/close to find rooms - so you could hear lots of movement
Beautiful building but rather tired hotel room. Reception and entrance are lovely - the bar area was nice and good location for what we wanted

United KingdomRoute march up to room, which was very tired, and not as clean as we would have liked. No room service, and no food during day until 5pm, which spoilt our Saturday a bit, as we were being picked up for a party, and needed food early. Because of a wedding, no food till after 6pm! Had to go to Burger King, not good.
Bed comfortable, bar area was nice, and outside of building looked impressive at first glance.

United KingdomThe decor and bathroom were very outdated. The paint was scratched on the doors and the toilet flushing was really loud, so we could hear it from other rooms. The housekeeper tried to come into the room before we had checked out. I had an email saying I had cancelled my booking while still in the room in the morning.
The bed was really comfortable and the bathroom was spacious. Good value for the price paid.

United KingdomThought we would get food in hotel on the Monday night, we went to the bar at 9.15 only to find the chef had gone home, which explains why we see a few workmen that must have been staying coming back with an Indian takeaway. Luckily, there was a KFC only a few mins away.
Large room, Breakfast was good if you went down early. If you go down a bit later, then the scrambled and fried eggs are not nice.
