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 KingdomHeating! In April temperatures resembling February and the heating was turned off. I understand hotel costs are an issue on profit, but in refurbishing rooms maybe auxiliary heating options could be considered.
A re-purposed older building with a fantastic Atrium and preserved art deco features. With bars, no frills food and private rooms serving the Atrium, friendly staff, massive free car parking. General good vibe about the place.

United KingdomFinding the entrance in the dark was a trial if not knowing the area (Google Maps took us to the bus depot next door!) and it didn't seem like we'd found the hotel as it was all about the conference centre really. Car parking was also very confusing. Just needs clearer signage for all of this really.
The hidden history of the place that was subtly included. Obviously a quiet time so minimal staff, but those there were great. Breakfast was made to order and was top notch (including my veggie one). The fact that, with all our discounts, our stay was almost free, made it even better.

SpainStaff in general are very good but some junior members are a little over zealous. While eating our evening meal the waiter appeared twice with the card machine to ask for payment. Training is needed.

Ample parking on arrival and a lovely welcome on reception. It's an amazing building in the Art Deco style and was used as the Railways training centre. It has a very interesting history. Our twin room didn't have much of a view but was very clean and comfortable. There is plenty of storage space, too. The bathroom was extraordinarily big to say it only had a very small shower, a toilet, and sink. We assume it used to have a bath as you could have fit a child's bed in the extra space and still get to the amenities!! We didn't get housekeeping during our 3 night stay, but anything we needed reception would sort. In our case, the house ladies were very kind and accommodated us with any extra towels and an empty bin. Breakfast was self-service, well cooked, and hot. All in all, it was a very pleasant stay for us whilst visiting National Trust properties in Derby.
