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.).

United KingdomWe went on a bank holiday weekend so the pub opposite was playing live music up to 10pm each night. Original single glazed windows didn't block much of it out. But it was a lovely atmosphere. Just something to bare in mind if you like an early night.
Location was perfect for what we needed. Bathroom on the main floor was gorgeous! Fantastic variety of board games - so much Scrabble took place. Character of the building including the old squeaky floorboards was all the more charming.

United KingdomOther reviews have mentioned the plumbing and the size of the shower etc but it must be hard pumping water up high in an old building. The fairly raucous band opposite gave a passable Santana impersonation but they did stop at 11pm and did not keep my daughter awake.
Stunning apartment in a lovely location. We would have loved to stay another night to read up on all the history. I do like stairs in an accommodation so this stay was ideal.

United KingdomAbsolutely beautiful apartment. Amazing attention to detail in the decoration and the presentation of the place. Stunning bathroom and stunning bedrooms. The living room has comfy sofas, big tv, fast Wi-Fi, even board games and books. Really central location, we went out to the pub across the road which served local craft beers. I can’t rate this place enough, the hosts have done a fantastic job with this place

United KingdomThe apartment was beautifully presented & comfortable. It has everything we needed & the hosts were prompt with messaging & any help we needed about the property & checking in. All of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay & we would absolutely come back again, hopefully for a much longer stay so we can make better use out of everything the apartment offered! It was one of the highlights of our group trip for sure. Thank-you to the hosts for being so kind.

United KingdomThere's nothing to dislike at all!!
The apartment was absolutely beautiful and immaculately clean. The photos of the apartment whilst good do not do it justice! The location was fantastic, right in the heart of the town. Lots of beautiful walks nearby. The communication from start to finish with the owners was excellent. We loved that the owners had research and newspaper articles detailing the history of the house and the family who lived there available for us to read. A good range of places to eat, drink & shop on the doorstep and lots of local history to explore. Two reserved parking spaces in a secure car park were an additional bonus. Can't wait for our next visit.

Loved the apartment. It felt very grand. The layout and facilities suited our two couples well. The town was interesting and everyone was very friendly and eager to help with advice.

United KingdomIt would be great if the directions to the building were put on the website, as in the entrance door isn’t actually on Derby Street. This isn’t a jibe but we drove around the block a few times. But I called the host and he directed us brilliantly. Thank you.
Great communication with the host. Great location. Lovely building.would definitely recommend to others and would stay again.

United KingdomAbsolutely beautiful, cosy apartment in the centre of Leek. It's a real hidden gem and the photos don't do it justice of how lovely it is. My favourite parts were the staircase and the Reading room/Games Room. The owners were so helpful, providing useful information before check in and were very responsive to my queries. The apartment is spotless and tastefully decorated too. There is also parking available in a secure car park for 2 cars outside the property. We enjoyed a walk around the Rudyard Lake and a dinner at Primo Piano as recommended by the owners. Such a perfect Easter break.

United KingdomThe property was stunning and so spacious. Everything was spotlessly clean and there was everything you could need on site. Parking was right outside and the location was right in the middle of Leek. The owners were fantastic and so helpful, nothing was too much trouble. They recommend the Lazy Trout for a Sunday roast, which was amazing! We also had a very long walk around Tittesworth Reservoir from the Lazy Trout which was very pretty. We only stayed one night and wished we could have stayed longer! We would recommend this property and will hopefully be back soon!
