Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomCar Park a bit tough to find, despite having copious instructions to find it. Had to pop into hotel for clarification, as did someone else later. Suggest worth looking on google maps before hand, or perhaps hotel could provide printed map if anyone resorts to asking at the hotel.
Comfortable room, spectacular bathroom. Great breakfast, cooked to order. The city centre and market just a very short way. Lots of nice streets en-route to visit Cathedral if you plan to go there. Hotel car park at back of the hotel a lot cheaper than nearby public car park.

United KingdomThe room was the same as pictured but a lot of the decor was very tired and worn in the bathroom or stained etc. I think the photos were taken a while ago!! We had a balcony... over a carpark!
The location was really great for the city centre. The front of the building and entrance are very grand.

United KingdomIf you are driving you are encouraged to arrive and park in car park in Pottergate. Not easy to find. The instructions say look for a red sign but it’s black! Afterwards we realised we could have driven up to the lovely front entrance, unloaded and then gone to car park. This means your first impression of the hotel is from the ugly back of the building and via labyrinth of back stairs and passages. Slightly spoilt the surprise stay for my husband. Shower didn’t work but there was a lovely bath.
Lovely grand facade. Very friendly and helpful staff

United KingdomThe pipes made a noise and some creaky floorboards from the room above, but no more than I've experienced in other hotels. Decor a little tired in our room.
The breakfast was excellent and the location is perfect for central Norwich. Bed was firm and super comfy for me. The staff were super friendly and helpful at all times, and provided a free upgrade because it was my wife's birthday.

BelgiumIt felt that my room was located in the old part of the hotel. The windows were "broken" and as my room was on street level you could hear a lot of noise. The room just felt a little tired and could have received a little more love. The TV was also not working properly. Apart from that, I do not have anything else to complain about
Great location for a solo traveller right in the center of Norwich. Great parking options right behind the hotel. The breakfast was great with a lot of choice. The room was big and spacious.
