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 KingdomMarlborough House was homey and felt very warm and welcoming. Very generous sized room and lovely kitchenette and great bathroom. Many nice little touches giving it a lot of character. Great staff who helped me with my luggage and called me a taxi when I left. Out of the busy tourist centre of Oxford but only a short walk to the lovely Summertown cafes and restaurants. There is a direct bus into the city just across the road. Also handy for canal walks and strolls on Port Meadow. I will be back. Especially nice for solo travellers.

United StatesCan’t think of anything.
The family room we chose was very nice. Everything was very comfortable. The staff was very friendly. The location is nice. It’s a short walk to summer town where there’s lots of restaurants and shops and a short bus ride into Oxford city center. The bus stop was right outside the property entrance.

United KingdomAll good. We took the advice to turn up in good time to make sure we got a parking space, which is ample as long as other people don't have massive cars...
Spacious, clean room, well equipped with a microwave and crockery/cutlery. Great location to catch the bus into Oxford. Near the Oxford canal, which is a nice place to walk. Even though we had a room overlooking the road it was not noisy. Great to have parking on site.

United StatesEverything was great.
We loved everything! From the holistic atmosphere, to the quiet & peaceful area. They had a backyard to relax in (wish we would have stayed longer to experience the backyard). Truly comfortable beds, and the water pressure was great. The lady at the counter (apologies for forgetting her name) she was so kind and down to earth. She was very helpful. If we ever go back, we will be staying here again! Parking was right in front of the building, felt safe and well lit. We arrived after check-in hours, no issue at all getting keys and access to our room. 100% recommend to stay here! Very close to Oxford, less than 10 minute drive to the University.

NetherlandsNo breakfast room, breakfast is brought to your room the night before, so no tasty full English. But there are a lot of possibilities within walking distance.
Clean spacious room with a kitchenette which permitted us to make our own breakfast. Nice bed, thick towels. Nicely decorated house, with even a little sitting room. Warm carpet everywhere. Very well situated, the bus to the center stops almost in front of the building. The noise of the busy road in front was no problem at all. Car was well parked on the small parkinglot in front of the house.

United KingdomWould have been useful to know what facilities exactly are in the kitchenette, eg I brought slices of bread hoping to make toast for breakfast, but no toaster - which is fine now I know, and I made porridge in the microwave instead!
Clean, comfortable, friendly, not overheated. Hot water reliable, shower easy to use. Bed very comfortable and roomy. Relaxed atmosphere, safe. Table to sit at to drink tea etc.very thoughtful. No hidden extras on payment.

United KingdomThere are ambiguities in the description of the property which need to be clarified in the write up. 1. It appears that breakfast is included and supplied to the room. After having booked, one is asked to pay for breakfast. 2. It would seem that parking is avaliable. However there are fewer parking places on the property than there are rooms. So first come first served, especially on weekdays when the parking on the adjacent street is not available.
Clean place in a good location, efficiently managed

United KingdomThe hotel is comfortable and staff friendly. Decor is a bit dated so not for those looking for a boutique hotel but it's functional and fine and much more space than you get in a central Oxford closet of a hotel room
Spacious room, free parking, and very close to bus that takes 5 min to get to central Oxford. Also near Summertown shops and cafes. This is a much quieter area than Cowley Road and quick to Jericho area and center of town
