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 KingdomI only stayed one night and had to catch an early train, so missed the cooked breakfast, sadly. However, the host offered to make me a packed breakfast - much appreciated. Location is great for rail travel, and an easy walk into town.

United StatesNice property, great host, delicious breakfast. We were originally a bit concerned about the street in front, but the windows have been soundproofed and the nighttime traffic was minimal. Short 10 or 15 minute walk to the city center.

United KingdomDecor tired in places. Our room was situated at rear and up on the second floor, so lots of stairs to consider. Railway line (a busy one) at bottom of garden, and overnight rail works were being carried out during our stay. Works were certainly noisy and very bright floodlights in operation at that time.
Great room. Bright and airy. Great location. Private off street parking which was an important point for us. Cooked full English breakfast each morning was very good and staff were pleasant and attentive. Although clearly very busy, we were not aware of noise from other residents. For younger guests there was a great selection of toys and games available. Check in and out was easy and hassle free. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good base to explore York. Good bus service and sightseeing bus stops a 5 min walk away.

United KingdomI couldn't fault the hotel or staff.
The hotel was very easy to find and the car park was just around the back. We arrived before check in time and we could leave our car in the car park and then came back later. We were given the keys, so we could just let ourselves in. The bed was lovely and confortable and we dropped off straight away. Lovely clean room and excellent breakfast which we pre ordered the night before. The staff were very helpful and friendly and I would stay here again.
