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.).

JerseyThe shower head was not great to manage, it is one of those that is supposed to sit on the side of a bath to rinse, no t a main shower head. The hotel decor was very tired and dated. There was a constant running water noise close to our room from inside the hotel. The mattress on the single bed in the room was really hard and uncomfortable. The lady in the breakfast room was abrupt, rude and loud, quite discourteous and the breakfast selection was substandard and inadequate.
The hotel location is stunning and we had a lakeside view. The reception staff were very kind and well mannered. The room was a good size and had coffee making facitilities and TV

United KingdomBathroom facilities were mediocre, Toilet seat was "interesting" as it didn't actually fit the toilet at all and you was left with partly sitting on the porcelain rim Shower leaked down the wall and flooded the floor, plus the tiles were loose or just balanced in place at the base of the bath. no hot breakfast as this was not available until after 8am and (due to having to be at a conference for 8:30am, and allowing for travel) I had to be gone long before it was ready. If you have food allergies, i'd say take your own food and there was only Soya Milk as a milk alternative
Room was clean and tidy and comfortable. There was tea and coffee facilities with plenty of supplies and milk Breakfast was ok, The room had a balcony which was a bonus and a stunning view.

United KingdomWe stayed overnight for the Tom Jones tribute evening. 3 course meal was very good, big portions and hot and tasty. Robb Dee as Tom Jones was brilliant. Staff were attentive and pleasant even though there was a bit of a problem with the card machine due to WiFi signal being poor. Breakfast was buffet, plenty of choice, nice clean tidy dining hall. In terms of the room. We had the four poster room which, although spotlessly clean, was very tired in decor. It wouldn't take much to make these rooms really high end and fit for a modern clientele. There was no spoon for the tea and coffee, no hairdryer and radiator was off for our entire stay. On the plus side, the bed was comfy and the room was spacious and had nice seating area. The outside of the building appears to have a new roof and new windows and is in good repair. I am hoping that this is now to be extended to refurbing the rooms as they could be so lovely. All in all we had a great evening and a comfortable stay but it could have been so much better.

United KingdomThe shower in the bathroom couldn't be adjusted properly which meant the floor got flooded quite badly and had to be dried up which meant using towels that could have lasted for two nights instead of one. The room wasn't made up and tea/coffee provisions not replaced whilst we were out on the Saturday but not sure if we should have requested this...??? Sunday morning breakfast, again no problem to do vegetarian sausages and poached eggs but there was a lack of choices for yoghurts, cereals and bread. Maybe this was because there were more people in for breakfast and "when it's gone it's gone"...???
A good hotel in a beautiful location for walking. Had booked the four poster room but received a phone whilst on our way that due to unforeseen circumstances it wasn't available and we had been upgraded to a larger room with balcony overlooking the lake (the view of the countryside was also lovely). Breakfast on the Saturday was excellent and the staff went out of their to prepare vegetarian sausages and poached eggs. Quality of food on offer for breakfast was good. Restaurant food was OK but could have had a few vegetarian options...??? Bar staff in the evenings were excellent.
