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 KingdomSome aspects of the breakfast could have been better. Sausages were a bit tasteless, fried eggs were over cooked and the bread was awful - flat plastic tasteless cheap sliced bread. Kinda felt we could have spent less on the hotel & had a better breakfast elsewhere.
Great location & close to a bus stop for easy transport into the city. On site car parking - a must for us. Opted for this hotel over other less expensive options because breakfast was included.

Really nice room, everything we needed and sold as a small room but plenty of room for both of us. Nice ground floor location too. Excellent location, number 2 and 2A bus stop 2 minutes away that runs frequently into the town centre and accepts cards. Amazing breakfast, lots on offer and the dining room is so lovely. Allowed to leave car the next day to explore Oxford which was a nice bonus. Staff were super friendly.

United StatesThe room seemed small but the bath room was gigantic. perhaps this was becasue we were put into a handicap accessible room with we did not require. I suspect other rooms had smaller baths and larger sleeping quarters.
Hot breakfast buffet was as good as table service breakfasts we had at other b&Bs The free parking and convenient, inexpensive bus service into the heart of Oxford was a great bonus. The staff was super helpful.

United KingdomThe room I booked did not match the photographs on the booking website and was very basic in addition to be being an accessible room which was not booked. I couldn't identify anything about the hotel that amounted to 4 stars as advertised and didn't feel the hotel offered anything in addition to a Premier Inn (no bar, no dinner facilities). The biggest issue by far was some sort of noisy delivery at 3/4am on the first night (unsure if this was the hotel or nearby) and the rooms proximity to the front door which was slammed shut constantly until late at night and from early in the morning, shaking my room door and everything else along the way
Location was good for my needs. Small selection of shops and restaurants close by. Pleasant staff and very clean

United KingdomNo facilities would have been nice to be able to have a drink in the garden after a long journey. Bathroom dated, stains on carpet in the bedroom. Just needed a freshness brought about the place.
Great location, spacious, clean, breakfast was lovely. Some of bedrooms in the property had been updated but unfortunately not ours. The location was brilliant, a short walk to shops and bars, a short bus journey straight into Oxford.

United KingdomBeing on the top floor meant that a lift would have been helpful, but we appreciate that this may not be possible to rectify.
It was a friendly and comfortable property, at a very good location to get into Oxford easily. The provided parking meant that we had no driving worries, and could catch the bus into town from almost outside the property. Staff went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable, and breakfast was good. We stayed in a triple room and the details had been well thought through, with three of everything provided, unlike in some hotels.

United KingdomUnfortunately, the facilities were a little disappointing for what the B&B classes itself as 4 star accommodation. My room was ridiculously hot when I arrived (no air conditioning in the room, but a fan is provided) as the radiator was dialled up to its maximum. Though 2 water bottles were provided, I could not get cold water from the bathroom tap. The en-suite was a good size, but I’m afraid it hadn’t been cleaned properly… there were beard trimmings in and around the basin as well as pubic hair in the shower basin. Unacceptable. I did not complain as I only discovered this prior to check-out (and the receptionists were so lovely!). I would have also liked to have spent the evening in the hotel’s back garden, but I didn’t want to disturb the staff who were out there relaxing. As a smoker, during work hours I’m required to drive off-site for my break… I felt awkward and didn’t want to interrupt the staff so went to the front of the property where there is no seating. The breakfast buffet was ok but it was a struggle to find time/space between guests to access the toaster & hot buffet, despite having to tell the receptionist upon check-in my ETA for breakfast. The staff were very kind, but the facilities were disappointing.
Parking on-site and great welcome from the receptionist! Approx 2.5 mile walk into the city - which was just a bit too far on a typically British rainy day! Excellent public transport available a stones throw away.
