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 StatesShampoo bottle was empty. Shower floor slick. Some parts seemed like it could have used a better cleaning. The bed is smaller than we are used to.
Good location. Close to castle. Easy to get to by public transportation from the airport. Pretty window views. Easy to use code sent to get in. It seemed complicated by the email but it wasnt.

United StatesI would have liked a luggage rack to put my suitcases on. I don’t usually like to unpack all my clothes. I think the hot water controls could be labeled because it looks nothing like the picture in the book. And a little shower caddy or something to put my shampoos on inside the shower would have been great!
Absolutely loved the location. It was perfect! Loved looking out to the back yard which was very peaceful.

United KingdomIf I was being exceptionally critical, there is some mould showing in the shower tray in the bathroom but it's minor and certainly not an issue. The cause is almost certainly as a result of clients failing to switch on the extractor fan.
This is outstanding accommodation in the very heart of the city. Very close proximity to theatres, restaurants and places fo interest. It's also right ion the main bus route from a Park & Ride facility on the west of the city where overnight parking is free of charge - it really could not be in a better location! The facilities are outstanding, modern, clean and very high-end. Overall, it would be very difficult to find anywhere better for a city stay.

United KingdomEverything was lovely and we’re happy we chose to stay there, but there were two tiny niggles. There is a blind in the bedroom, but it would’ve been good to have curtains as well for added privacy, especially during the daytime when you don’t want anyone seeing into the bedroom but also don’t want to block out the sunlight. Also a little shelf in the shower would be great.
Excellent location very close to the old town. Nice and quiet too. Lovely decor and overlooking a pretty garden.
