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.).

New ZealandI didn’t like the staff standing outside smoking vapes each morning during the day and an evening, I felt one of the receptionist was very casual, the air-conditioning in my room did not work so I had to have a fan on continually, bottled water was not left each morning, my coffee cup was not cleaned in the morning on one specific day. The first day arrived the television and the phone did not work.
Lovely property and reasonable location, it was not my first choice of hotel. The food was good. The service and the Restaurant and room service was very good.

United KingdomThe bar did not seem to have a lot of choice of drinks. The corridor leading to the public toilets was always in darkness, as was the restaurant on our first night (it looked like restaurant was closed).
I really enjoyed the spa & swimming pool. Also it was nice to be upgraded to a signature room as it was our wedding anniversary.

United KingdomThe decor throughout the hotel was very dated and old fashioned and it could do with modernisation throughout to be truly a 4 star hotel. The “award winning restaurant, as advertised had a very limited pub style menu although the food was very well cooked and presented
The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout and we were given a free room upgrade on arrival. The hotel was very clean and the room quiet and comfortable. Lovely gardens The food was very well cooked although the menu was a little bit limited

The garden was very nice - there was no iron in the room but when this was raised, it was sorted very quickly and efficiently.

United KingdomCleanliness in the hotel in general was not of a high standard, floors needing cleaning, tables needed wiping / dusting, some staff were excellent - some staff did not appear to be properly trained. If you ordered drinks for garden you had to struggle out with bottles and glasses. Cleaners did not remove or wash dirty tea cups or replenish tea bags, Carpets were dusty round the edges. Grounds unkempt. Room a bit dated. Not helped to room with suitcases and had to go down two steps with no hand rail. No cheese and biscuits on any night.
Spa was amazing, staff, treatment, cleanliness. Food was outstanding, chef is very good, spanish waiter in mornings was very professional and a credit to the hotel. Good location to visit Windsor. Beds and bed linen was good. Room spacey.

Mr
United KingdomStandard of decoration. Its hard to get through to reception via phone at times, Gym has a few bits of equipment all functioning but the gum area is very small. Coffee at breakfast was ropy stewed; I am particular about coffee as its a passion of mine, this could be improved. As a non smoker being served by staff members who are smokers isnt pleasant, although the service was ok, we were the only people in for an early breakfast.
Rooms are very old fashioned but i like that, bed comfy and bathroom clean. This property has so much potential as location is great. Staff friendly beer good, breakfast as it should be although the breakfast area needs a lick of paint and updating when budgets allow, as do the bedrooms! I will stay again as its a good location and appreciate that investment and re decoration comes at a cost . If the hotel owners invest in this site it could be one of the best places to stay in Maidenhead.

United KingdomI stopped at this hotel 18 years ago and it doesn’t look like it’s been updated since. It’s a real shame as it was a lovely hotel and could be again with some investment. It’s really tired and need a deep clean. Also they don’t provide conditioner which is very poor for a four star hotel with a spa.
Having the indoor / outdoor pool which is heated was fantastic. Breakfast was lovely, the evening meal was nice enough and beds were comfy.

United KingdomThey unfortunately put us in a room without a working shower, and when we went to reception they said that they knew that room had an issue with the shower, so it was strange they put us there to begin with. They did upgrade us to a suite though. Could be a little cleaner and they could change a few details so it isn't so old fashioned and out dated. The kitchen was not prepared for the amount of guests staying and our dinner arrived over 2 hours late, and they ran out of basics during breakfast.
Staff was friendly and accommodating. The hotel grounds are pretty and spacious. I wasn't able to use the spa but it looked great.

United KingdomThe hotel gets a wide range of reviews and having booked 4 rooms we saw why. Our room was fine but one room was not great with a beer bottle top left on the desk and worn sheets. Dinner was fine if a pity they wouldn't serve in the open covered area but it was a bit Fawlty Towers with plates dropped/broken both in the kitchen and restaurant and then being told the restaurant was closing so dessert might not be possible. The breakfast is greatly overpriced. No decent coffee.
The spa is the main reason to stay there. It was fine although the water was too hot for any swimming and the small garden to sit out on a bonus.

United KingdomOn registering we were not informed that the room would only be cleaned if we placed the sign outside the door, day 1 was a Sunday and the room was cleaned on day 2 we were told that it would be cleaned when we enquired but it wasn't! The complimentary tea, milk, biscuits etc were never replenished, we had to ask for teabags etc virtually every day!
The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. All the staff were very pleasant, the restaurant manager at breakfast especially so. The breakfast menu was excellent and the food in general very good.
