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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

The bar is very cozy, and I like the conservatory for breakfast. The observatory experience was very good if the skies are clear.

United KingdomWe had booked a deluxe double room but there was a mix up, and another couple already had our room and we were given a twin-bedded room which was ok. It didn't really spoil our visit
Dinner and breakfast were excellent, with wide range of choices. Staff were attentive and helpful. Conservatory dining room and garden lovely. We enjoyed our dark sky experience in the observatory with the enthusiastic astronomer.

Whilst exploring Northumberland and surrounding area, my father and I stayed for three nights at Battlesteads Hotel. The room was comfortable and maintained everyday with a range of complimentary tea, coffee and delicious biscuits to choose from. The food at the hotel was fantastic: there was a good choice on offer for breakfast each morning and the evening meals were delicious and of high quality. A big thankyou to the team at Battlesteads for such a welcome and pleasant stay. From the cleaners who maintained our rooms and gave a cheery ‘good morning’ to us each morning as we got up for breakfast, to the Reception, bar and restaurant staff who were always friendly, polite and extremely helpful. They went above and beyond to help my father to arrange vehicle recovery when his motorcycle broke down and the maintenance worker on site also took his time to try and help resolve the issue. We genuinely felt welcome and will certainly be recommending Battlesteads to any family or friends intending to visit the area in the future.

United KingdomShower didn’t work properly, water was cold even at highest temperature setting and at the highest setting it meant the water trickled out the shower.
Beds were comfortable, location was good and even being next to the road there was very little noise. Breakfast was good and plenty of variety.

United KingdomIt was a little loud along the corridor, after the restaurant closed, due to people heading from there up to bed. The bathroom could use a little TLC (a new shower curtain, a new showerhead etc) but perfectly usable!
The room was spacious, clean and had all the amenities. A very good breakfast too. The staff couldn't do enough for you, and were kind and helpful.

United KingdomSuch a minor thing, there was a plug in air freshener near reception. (Most are harmful to our health). Perhaps a vase of flowers from their garden would make a wonderful alternative.
Loved the tray of fruit in the bedroom. Having travelled a long distance it was great to snack on something healthy. Loved the fact that windows could open and not have to rely on air conditioning in the room. Dinner and breakfast had plenty choice and use of own produce. Plenty space in dining area and staff were friendly.
