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 KingdomHaving to leave.
Luxurious decor, clean and spacious bedroom and bathroom. The huge bed had the most comfortable mattress. Richard was a most entertaining and welcoming host for whom nothing was too much trouble. The Continental breakfast had every choice covered. The property is located a short bus ride from the city centre and is well-served by a reliable and cheap bus service. A fabulous visit.

United KingdomDidn't realise the room was not en-suite but our bathroom was just a few steps away, so for one night it was not too much of a problem.
Richard was an excellent host and we enjoyed chatting to him about the history of the house. The room was delightful and comfortable. Breakfast the next day was delicious and nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely return.

United StatesThe Grosvenor Villa is a beautiful, historic place with plenty of charm. Richard, the host, was informative and accommodating. We stayed in a large room with a comfortable king bed. The host provided snacks, tea, and water in our room. We had to head downstairs to the bathroom, but we had it all to ourselves and it was spacious and clean with a tub and a walk-in shower. Richard shared interesting stories with us about the history of the house. The house is gated, but the surrounding area is safe. We took the bus into the town center but could have taken a scenic walk there as well. The complimentary breakfast was outstanding. Richard provided many options and even brought more food to us using a dumbwaiter. The food was not only plentiful, but delicious.

United KingdomOne bit of feedback would be to have net curtains on the ground floor bedroom. I didn't always want the curtains shut as they blocked light and air, but did want privacy... net curtains would fix that.
Excellent host, wonderful venue , fabulous room and generous facilities. A wonderful bathroom and breakfast.

United KingdomGrosvenor villa was just beautiful! What an entrance into the building. We were welcomed in by Richard and felt right at home. Richard was an amazing host. He was very friendly, witty, and entertaining. Richard was full of knowledge and suggested lots of things to do in and around Bath. The hotel was well located, just a lovely 20-minute walk along the canal into the city. Our room was perfect, with a very grand bed which was very comfortable and i had a great night sleep. The room was clean and had good amenities, including complimentary bottled spring water and wine. The bathroom was big and very clean. Breakfast was an experience, you are sat around a large table in a very grand dining room. We got the chance to meet and chat with interesting people from all over the world, and Richard was great morning entertainment. He put a huge smile on all our faces, which gave us a great start to the day. We were very happy with our stay at Grosvenor Villa and would highly recommend it, and we would definitely stay again!.
