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 KingdomLovely hotel, a feeling of calm and space. Room was spacious with a balcony. Very comfortable bed and a good shower. Particularly liked the library with the old books you could look through and plenty of comfortable sofas and chairs. Located very close to the train station and only 15-20 minute walk to the centre of Cambridge.

ItalyTwo things (that I told the staff). In the bathrooms there are no soaps, but dispensers of soap. They didn't work correctly, so it was hard to use them for showers. Second, the king bed was very short!! I'm tall (but not that much) and most of my legs beneath my knees were outside the bed. I felt it strange since the bed was brand new and very large.
That's was my second time to the Clayton. I found it very good for Cambridge. Convenientely located near the station, the hotel is big, clean with rooms that are more than adequate to the price paid. Breakfast is fine and the staff is friendly. I suggest it.

United KingdomThe only thing I didn’t like was the fact that the hairdryer in my room didn’t work properly. I changed plug sockets, this didn’t help. It ran only in short blasts which nearly resulted in me running late for a meal that evening. Other than that there was nothing I didn’t like about the property.
The property was lovely, location was good as my partner and I enjoyed the walk into town each day. The decor inside was lovely and made the property feel even more homey and designer. The bed was super comfy and facilities in the room up to scratch.

United KingdomThe large beds seemed to be two beds joined together, there was an uncomfortable parting down the middle which was annoying, I also wish they offered halal breakfast options.
Upto date decor and well maintained, the rooms were spacious and the bathrooms were wonderful as well

UkraineI do not recommend it for staying more than 3 nights in a row. The breakfast is exactly the same day to day. The variety of products/dishes for the breakfast is quite limited representing mostly typical British breakfast, very fat with lack of proteins and vagitables. Also, which is not easy to explain for me, the bathroom is lacking the toilet brush. Which makes you stay as a couple very awkward and inconvenient.
Decent hotel! Excellent location in the business district. Stunning interior style.
