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.).

ThailandDuring the 10-day trip to the UK, I stayed at this hotel 3 times with the same room type, only on the first stay I got a room with a broken telephone and kettle.
Sumptuous meal with hot buffets, unfortunately, the menu is the same every day. Good location with convenient transportation. The room is comfortable and worth the price.

Absolutely brilliant hotel. Would highly recommend. The check in was so easy and professional. A lovely surprise with receiving an upgrade for my birthday. The room was lovely, very clean, the bed was so comfortable, the bathroom was brilliant, with rituals shower gel, always nice to have. The balcony was brilliant, it was so peaceful and quiet. The breakfast was tasty, hot and delicious - plenty to choose from. The hotel is located 5 minute walk from the railway station and about a 25 minute walk to the centre of Cambridge Our first visit to Cambridge and would definitely return and would return to Clayton Hotel too. Thank you for all the staff, very polite and helpful

United KingdomI was working at The Botanic Gardens so the hotel is very conveniently situated. I ate in the restaurant on Wednesday evening. Yet again I was in a hotel, alone (like many others) but there wasn't a business 'networking' table available. I sat at a table, alone, like many others who were probable all there on business too, and would have liked the opportunity to sit with others, just to be sociable, and enjoy my evening meal in company rather than alone. I don't know why hotels don't offer this. I was also very surprised that there wasn't any little sanitary bags in the bathroom for us ladies. A hotel of such quality should have these. Other than these two points the hotel is exceptional and I would stay there again.

United KingdomI wanted for nothing in the room. Could not fault it. However, the reservation confirmation process was confusing and time consuming. I couldn’t pay via Booking.com, I was sent a link that didn’t work I requested another link and it took some time to come. I eventually paid via the hotel’s link but why was the process so clunky?
The room was wonderfully spacious with a very von bed, and a large bathroom with a great shower.
