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.).

AustraliaWe would have liked a fridge in the room to keep our drinks and few snacks cool.
A comfortable and clean room with beautiful grounds surrounding. Well supplied breakfast buffet. Request for ice bucket to room was lovely considering our selected room didn't have a mini bar. We enjoyed being close to the Thames River for a lovely stroll into the main hustle and bustle of Oxford.

United KingdomIf i'm being super critical - the pillows were too soft for us and unfortunately no option of harder pillows in wardrobe - would have good to have had a notice/note stating how to get different pillows. We only stayed a couple of nights so it didnt matter but if somebody stays long term......... The bathroom door from the inside was tiered/ damaged/chipped
Beautiful hotel and spa in a quiet setting. Room overall was very clean and spacious. Food was also excellent. Staff were excellent and very friendly and helpful. We will certainly be back. Very close to local bus stop so great for getting into Oxford if you cant walk far.

United KingdomIn our opinion the food was not of the same standard as the hotel. Breakfast excellent, good choice and well cooked. The evening meal however was only average and we thought expensive for what it was.
Excellent location, spotlessly clean throughout and the staff could not have been better.

United KingdomThe parking fees are an absolute racket and as a hotel guest there should be complimentary of greatly reduced parking charges. An absolute con. For that reason I probably won’t return especially if I’m staying longer than a couple of nights.
Even though it’s a large hotel because it’s only a couple of stories high it didn’t feel overcrowded. The cleanliness was exceptional. The more mature woman on the front desk this morning was warm and friendly whereas the younger woman when I checked in was friendly but robotic. I think maturity in staff really makes a big difference.
