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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 KingdomWe were pleasantly surprised when we entered the building. It looked quite small and insignificant on the outside entering from the street, but once inside it was like the tardis with lovely interior furnishings and a pleasant surprise. The decor was lovely, the staff were friendly and professional. The room was fine, it was clean and had everything you needed and the bed was comfortable. We ate in the bar in the evening and enjoyed our food and the menu looked good. The breakfast in the morning was really good with a good selection of fruit and cereal. Everything was of a high standard, including the crockery. I ordered the full breakfast and it was one of the best I have had. The hotel exceeded our expectations and we would happily go there again.

United KingdomWe were very disappointed with the evening meal. Our table was near the entrance to the toilet so there were people constantly passing us and we were also the door where the smokers went out so it wasn't very pleasant.We had booked the table on arrival in the morning They were extremely busy and we waited nearly an hour for our food. Unfortunately I sent my meal back as it was cold. They were clearly unable to cope.
Lovely room and an excellent location.

United KingdomThere was no obvious reception. We went straight into a bar with hoards of people and blaring loud music and had to try and hunt for someone to check us in. The shower pressure was very inconsistent at one point no water came out at all. I was stood trying to wash soap off and had to wait for the water to start up again and when it did it was like a fire hose!!! The dial to turn it on and off was very stiff and it took me ages to get it turned off. Probably a plus point to some, but there was a bath in the bedroom which I don't personally like. The parking was hard to find and a bit of a walk along a little ginnel. I wouldn't fancy going along there in the dark.
The room was very quiet which was amazing considering we were in the middle of Penrith on a Saturday night. The bed was big and comfortable and the room spacious. The breakfast choices were good and generous.
