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 KingdomWe loved the location of the Old Bank Hotel right in the heart of Oxford. It comes with private parking. We had an amazing stay. My first visit to Oxford. We will be visiting again. I left my phone charger in the room and after a couple of telephone calls a very helpful lady on reception sent it on to me by Special Delivery. Many thanks I really appreciate getting it back.

This is the best location in Oxford. The adjacent restaurant is fabulous. We ate breakfast and dinner there three times because it's so good plus it offers room service. The room was spacious with a view of the terrace.

United KingdomA few of the front desk people need to be friendlier. One lady seemed to be slightly annoyed when we asked for a late check out.
The location can't be beat, the service overall is really 5 star (they even called us before the stay and before check out to let us know there were road closures), the room is not too big but comfortable and clean, the food at Quod is decent and is room service, really beautiful hotel with beautiful paintings. We found our Oxford go-to hotel!

United StatesThe hotel is not exactly spacious, but that’s because it’s a city hotel and not a garden location. They’ve done well condensing everything into a refitted space.
The staff, location, ambiance, food and amenities were excellent. It’s the perfect cozy city hotel.

United KingdomJust one member of the bar staff. I was the only one waiting to be served and invisible! They had a strange attitude and just plain rude and unprofessional. It wouldn’t put me off the hotel as everyone else was so professional.
Loved the location. Style and comfort of the room, personalised parking space and the attention to detail. Hand written note in the room was sweet
