Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomI think there was a shortage of staff and this affected our meal in the evening and breakfast the next day. However, huge apologies were made and the staff thanked us for our patience.
We liked the very comfortable room and the style of the hotel. The staff were lovely, very helpful and friendly.

United KingdomWardrobe seems to have been designed primarily for MEN’s clothes- hanging space too short for WOMEN’s dresses. Didn’t much like GLASS sliding door into bathroom- it rattled when slid making it somewhat noisy. A hook on back of bedroom door would be useful for coats/ dressing gowns etc.
Room very comfortable. Alternative bedding available on request. Air-con was easily adaptable. Breakfast excellent- including good choice of gluten-free food and non-dairy milk. Staff extremely helpful and available.

CanadaOnly thing I didn’t like were the soap and shampoo. Would recommend you bring ones you prefer.
There was a gluten free station in the continental breakfast room that had wonderful muffins, bread, bagels and cereals! Staff were pleasant and courteous. Beds and pillows were so comfy! Teas, coffee and hot chocolate in room were delicious. Even the tea cups and tea pot in room were such a nice touch.

AustraliaI find it hard to find fault with anything. Were I to split hairs; then perhaps there were a few too many decorative glass items in our room. I found myself having to move, and later replace them; to make space for my items. One other improvement that might be considered would be a smooth pathway from the main reception/building to where our room was. An exceedingly kind and helpful staff member initially insisted on helping us with our bags, but my husband did go back to our vehicle to retrieve other wheeled luggage, later. Dragging luggage over the gravel was somewhat difficult.
The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The bar and breakfast staff demonstrated a high level of professionalism and customer service. We loved our spacious room, and the quality of the furnishings. The double vanity sink was great. The bed was luxurious and the bed linens beautifully soft. One can tell that the room was thoughtfully designed.

United KingdomDidn’t realise the Bentley cars can be booked for a complimentary tour of Cambridge. We’d have loved that but by the time we knew there was no availability during our stay. The bar area was a bit soulless.
Central location close to centre of Cambridge. Comfortable spacious well-appointed room, even though we only booked the standard room. Tasty well-cooked breakfast with plenty of choice on the menu.
