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 KingdomTwo of us staying so would have expected more than 3 little cartons of milk - I had to ask for 3 more so 2 cups of tea on arrival 2 cups of coffee after our theatre visit 2 cups of tea before breakfast - so 6 cartons would have been more acceptable Also two paltry little biscuits! (Fortunately I remembered this happened last time so I bought teabags and biscuits!)
Staff exceptionally helpful

AustraliaAlthough warned about being under renovation was a little disappointed by the state of everything. No toilet available for our guests who joined us for dinner. New bathroom very poorly designed- nowhere to put anything down, hang things up, shower sprays onto floor.

United KingdomAlthough we didn't have a problem with the renovation and the workers were very friendly and polite, it did make parking a little difficult sometimes and you pay extra for parking. I would have liked more drinks facilities in the rooms milks etc as I like evening and morning teas. Extra pillows would be good please

United KingdomArrived at 2pm and was told bar is only open in the evening which was disappointing after a long drive. £9 parking charge even though the car park and outside area was full of building equipment. No outside seating and the spa was also closed as being refurbished.
Lovely spacious and clean room. Perfect central location to town.

United KingdomDespite being notified renovation works were being carried out and communicated by email, nothing was mentioned in reception. At times the reception/dining area/ bar was left unattended causing confusion when guests arrived.
Staff were friendly, especially the lad who served us in the restaurant. Great food too.

United KingdomRenovation was in progress, so very chaotic. Quite during our stay but I’d imagine noisy during the week when builders would be present? Air conditioning unit not working in our room, so extremely hot and stuffy. Breakfast chaotic, as lack of staff. One poor girl coping on her own. Was very surprised we had to pay extra for parking on the premises, considering it was on the hotel grounds.
Good size room. Clean and newly renovated. 10min walk into town. Parking available. Staff friendly and helpful.

United KingdomWe weren't told about the renovations and there being no restaurant and spa before we booked and paid for it due to nothing being on their website or the booking info. After contacting them when we couldn't get through to the spa they did finally change their website and the Booking.com info to inform other future customers. It meant our plans had to change because we weren't able to use the advertised facilities.
The room was a nice size and the bathroom was decent too.

United KingdomStill having to pay full price despite no restaurant and having to go through a dirty entrance with scaffolding everywhere. Heating not working hence having to use a portable radiator. For a newly renovated room the paint on the bathroom door was flaking off and the furniture was a bit tatty and old.
Location and bedroom were good.

United KingdomCurrently undergoing renovations so public spaces are a bit unsightly. Had an issue with key card registering in power point. In the end had to have 2 key cards in the socket at all times. No bedside table or shelf on one side of the bed.

United KingdomI have stayed before the renovation work started and I know how lovely the bar, restaurant, gym and spa is. It was just a shame that none of that was open. Also we weren’t told about no food being served until we went down for dinner, when we were told this, the restaurant was set up for evening meals and also smelt very strongly of freshly cooked food, so we were very confused at this. The price per day for parking is too expensive, £9 per day and on the website, booking.com, it says nothing about paying for parking.
The beds were very comfortable and the location is great

United KingdomI feel that it is overpriced considering the hotel is going through renovations. I would have thought that a reduced price would be more suitable with free breakfast for all guests. Maybe your hotel should also supply a microwave (or at least a toaster) as there is nowhere in Salisbury to get food from at what is deemed a reasonable time outside of Salisbury.
The location was ok. To be honest the great staff really do make this hotel.
