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 KingdomThe view from our room windows was over an area that the hotel seemed to be using to dump their old chairs - a bit of screening would go a long way to making it more pleasant. Hotel was catering for large tour groups, and felt a bit motel like - lacking in charm. Breakfast was cleared away on the dot of 9.30 am (?) even though we hadn't yet had our hot food.
The room was large, comfortable and easy access outside with our dog

United KingdomUnusual set up as the hotel is in separate buildings which is not a problem but an umbrella maybe need at times.
Nice bar and restaurant and the food is of good quality and choice, the staff are very helpful and polite. this hotel is great for me as I travel for work and my office is nearby but it is also great for visiting Stratford or Warwick and further a field

United KingdomCarpet in room was old with worn holes, needed updating. Breakfast was average, quickly ran out of standard food eg bread and fruit.
A nice country location, a short drive from Stratford. Room was large with comfy bed and pillows.

United KingdomBar staff at the main bar struggled to understand some of the drinks being ordered, were slow, visibly looked like they were not happy having to work, and in one case quite abrupt and rude. Breakfast staff were few and far between, appeared disorganised and many ancillary items, such as preserves and sauces, were not prepared or not available. Damage to the mattress in the room caused a minor injury which could have been a lot worse. We are talking to the hotel directly about this matter.
The waiting staff and team at the wedding we attended were excellent, as was the wedding breakfast food!

United KingdomHad a WhatsApp message, email and phone call to remind us to pay the bill before departure which felt excessive given it wasn't even close to check out time yet. Maybe take payment on check in if non-payment is an issue rather than this way round to pester all guests?
Nice hotel next to a national trust site. Room was large, comfortable and spotlessly clean, and nicely decorated, quirky not your usual bog standard room. Comfy bed. Lots of parking. Bar and restaurant were nice, good food and good service. Dog friendly too with lovely meadow to exercise dogs on site.

United KingdomA bad smell came from the drains outside the courtyard and up from the sink. We just kept the plug in. The settee bed needed replacing; it was old and dirty-looking. The stairs and bedroom carpet needed a clean. It had what looked like sheep/dog poo walked all around the bed. We kept our shoes on, which was a shame because we didn't feel at home. For the price, breakfast should have been included.
The location was perfect for our little stop-off on the way to London. We wanted to visit Charlecote NT, which is just across the road. We had what looked like a little house with a front door, stairs leading up and then a bedroom with an en suite off the landing. It was roomy and bright. The decor was old-fashioned/country house style, which was in keeping with the building, but it needed a statement headboard, gold chandelier, plain curtains, and new carpet to make it a wow-factor room. It could be done easily. The bathroom had some cracked tiles, but it was clean and functional.

United KingdomMy husband goes to bed earlier than I do, and although there was a dimmer switch connected to the main light, it didn't seem to dim the lights in the corner where the kettle was and there was no separate control for them, so the room was still quite bright. This is only minor, though, as we had no other issues.
The staff were all very polite, friendly and helpful, even at 11.45 pm when our key card didn't work, as someone came out to let us in the room! The setting is wonderful and the food was excellent, including the breakfast. Our room was spacious and warm, which was a bonus after coming home late from a very chilly air show. There was a spare plug in heater, ironing board, thick duvet, iron and fan in the cupboard if needed. We will definitely visit again if we are in the area.

United KingdomThe room we stayed in had a strange open-plan bathroom area, with a closed toilet - but there's only one light switch for both parts of the bathroom, so the only way to visit the lavatory in the night is to (a) take a torch or (b) illuminate the entire room and wake up your partner. The shower was weak and took abround 5 minutes to warm up and the standing floor fan had a bit of a DIY stand which was worryingly wobbly. Small downsides in an otherwise overwhelmingly positive experience!
The hotel is an old converted farmhouse and barn so it's split into different buildings which was great, because we heard almost nothing of the large wedding party happening on the night we visited. The room was (mostly, see below) super-comfortable, the staff were nice and the cooked breakfast buffet was hot and tasty with plenty of fruit and cereal options also. The location is beautiful and surrounded by some of the most quintessentially English countryside imaginable.
