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 KingdomJust the shower pressure could be a bit better.
The location was perfect for us. The staff were lovely and very friendly. We had a great room, very comfortable bed, water pressure in the shower could be better, but we managed ok🙂. The food was excellent with good portion size at dinner. We would definitely stay again.

Located just off the M6, this was an ideal stop-over on our journey south. Staff were exceptionally friendly. Breakfast was cooked to order and very enjoyable. Good menu choices for evening meals.

United KingdomVery difficult sometimes to park in the hotel itself but I understand you can park on the road nearby.
We had breakfast and dinner everyday and night we stayed and it was very good. The room itself was a little small but okay.

United KingdomGreat friendly staff who couldn't do more to help us - would definitely come back to stay! Accommodated an early check out for a race the next day, and left us a lovely continental breakfast outside the room! The room was lovely and clean, super comfortable and had all the amenities we'd need.

United KingdomVery narrow archway into the car park tricky for anything other than small cars - but you can go (carefully and slowly) in the other way instead.
Nice decor in the room, it seemed a little noisy when we arrived - noise from the bar below - and other guests arriving sounded loud in the corridor outside, but that did not go on long and when we retired for the night, it was perfectly quiet - all night. Comfy soft bed. Good sized shower room with lovely hot water. Handy there was a restaurant (and bar) on site and a very good menu. Interesting decor on the walls in the bar and the restaurant. The breakfast was fine and there are options for vegans. If it had been warmer we would have enjoyed sitting in the lovely garden area next to the parking - very nice selection of planting there, a well looked after garden.

Stayed in the Brantwood Hotel previously , must have thought it ok or we wouldn’t have booked again . The stay this time exceeded our expectations . From our initial welcome to settling our account everything was superb . The staff were really efficient and friendly all our meals were exceptional and excellent value for money . The room was spotless and very comfortable . The bar had loads of atmosphere and had a great choice of drinks. It is also really easy to access for those using the M6.
