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 KingdomWhen booking I believed I would have a kettle and some tea etc, but I didn't have nothing. The shower door kept on sliding off. It is very loud on a night time, and people just walking right past your window shouting.
Friendly staff, room was clean and there's plenty of options for food and pubs right outside.

United KingdomThe windows are old and very thin and as the location is in a pub on a busy high street we were kept awake by loud people coming and going from the pub and people walking drunk through the town until the early hours which wasn't ideal especially as we had an early start and a child with us.
Room was spacious and clean. Decent place for the price we paid.

IrelandHad to swap room as there was an issue with the first room. Unclean undergarment from previous guest was left on a shelf. Food was quite basic, ordered the ‘handcrafted’ steak and ale pie, it was at a guess a frozen/fridge store bought meat pie, certainly not handcrafted rather disappointing.
Location was close to where I needed to be. Bed was comfortable, linen was clean. Ok for a short stay.

United KingdomWe ended up staying for two nights and thought it was good value. We moved from one room because the blind was not working and the staff were very helpful.
The Talbot Hotel is a well managed hotel in a convenient location for Stourbridge town centre and a good base for exploring the local region.

United KingdomThere is a lot of black mould in the grout of the bathroom in room 106 which is most likely compounded by the fact that the extractor in the bathroom doesn’t work. Outside the front door is the kitchens along with a noisy extractor fan and noisy staff. The room lacked basics you’d generally expect to be provided - a litter bin for example. Whilst this is an economy room, a bin should be provided as standard. The window didn’t open and no fan - so in the summer that room would be horrific. The tap inside the toilet cistern was running/ dripping during the night which was a bit annoying. Oddly only 3 pillows on a double bed - not an issue but you’d expect both sides of the bed to have the same. Room which is accessible to literally anyone was unlocked on arrival - a bit disconcerting knowing that anyone could have walked in before I got there. Couldn’t mention this to staff at checkout as nobody was on reception - just a pile of keys. None of this would stop me from staying again, but there’s room for improvement and I hope this feedback is taken on board.
The staff member checking me in was pleasant - very friendly and engaging. The bed/ mattress itself was firm but comfy. The carpet/ bedding/ towels etc were clean and fresh. The standard of decor was good, contemporary and the room I was in was very generously sized. The room was good value overall at just over £40.
