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.).

United KingdomThis place is a gem, friendly people, super clean, quiet & comfy - & all minutes from Knaresborough railway station on the York to Harrogate line. Excellent value, delicious home cooked breakfasts (& catered for g/f & d/f..) - & a gorgeous sunny courtyard garden full of flowers & birds: brilliant! Beautiful spacious rooms at back overlooking garden, plus others onto street (but it's not busy). Knaresborough is a fascinating place full of history & quirkiness, just 20 minutes on train to York. LOTS of pubs, cafes, restaurants & independent shops, a delight!

United KingdomThere was nothing not to like. It is worth noting, however, that there is no parking facility. We were advised of this before booking. As promised, we were given the various options for parking in nearby car parks. This worked well for us, and the charges were modest.
We received a warm welcome when we arrived, and taken to our room. It was beautifully appointed, stylish and accommodating. It was almost like being in a private house. There was a generous supply of tea/coffee/biscuits. The ensuite facilities were excellent. The beds were comfortable. The breakfasts were excellent also, with good quality food well prepared.

The staff were polite, friendly, and welcoming. The room was clean tidy with lovely little extras, cordial in your room, not just tea and coffee wine glasses provided and a small bottle of milk in a little fridge, you have a breakfast card you can fill in with the time you wish to have breakfast and what you would like. Overall it is a lovely place located in a great area near the train station and near the town centre will definitely be staying again

United KingdomI wouldn't change anything and there was nothing I disliked.
We were greated with a warm welcome and helped with our bags after a very short walk from the railway station. The room and bathroom were both extremely clean and nicely decorated. There was a good choice of beverages and we were given biscuits chocolate and fresh milk daily. The bathroom had lovely extras too. Breakfast had a wide range of hot and cold and the poached eggs were cooked to perfection, there was also vegetarian choices. I would recommend anyone to stay here.
