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 KingdomIf you don't do well with stairs this probably isn't the house for you, bedrooms toilets etc are split across 6 floors so lots of going up and down. Not a problem for us but worth knowing!
Amazing historical house in the heart of Bath, perfect for big groups, lots of separate beds across 4 bedrooms and a nice dining room and kitchen. Comfy beds, lots of quirky little details, lovely host who gave us lots of info about surrounding area (even where to buy a bday cake!). Really central, could get everywhere in Bath within 20 minutes walking

United KingdomNot a dislike but there are plenty of stairs in the property, adds to its charm though!
The Paragon was the perfect accommodation for our hen party in Bath! In comparison to other properties available we really liked that everyone had a proper bed (no sofa beds) and that there was plenty of bathrooms to share. It’s location was ideal and the facilities were excellent. Also communication with the host Sandrine was very good and she generously left us lots of treats in the house. Would definitely recommend to other groups staying in Bath.

United KingdomIt’s not a dislike but a fair warning - there are a lot of stairs in the Paragon Townhouse and some are quite steep. Given the age of the property, it can also get a little chilly at night but the thermostat was easy to locate and we soon warmed up - each room is well stocked with cosy blankets if you need that little extra, and they had plug in heaters available.
We had such a comfortable stay at the Paragon Townhouse. As a group of eight girls celebrating our friend’s hen party, we chose the Paragon due to its proximity to the centre, size, charm, and welcoming hosts that were willing to accommodate. The location is amazing and a short walk away from all the action, with a small convenience store about a two minute walk away and a large Waitrose around five minutes down the road. Alternatively, we chose to book an Asda shopping delivery ahead of time, which was delivered to our door on our arrival. The hosts were very accommodating and in contact before our stay to ask about bed preferences (you can choose to have the rooms made up with single or double beds) and what colour milk we’d like for teas and coffees. On arrival, we found the house was stocked up with plenty of tea bags, coffee, biscuits, Prosecco, florentines, Easter eggs - you name it. Such gorgeous little treats from lovely hosts. The town house has many floors, with each room charmingly decorated, including many original features - which are an adorable touch. The kitchen is very well equipped, with just about every appliance, pot, pan and kitchen tool you could ever name. The Paragon is a perfect home away from home, close to amazing restaurants if you choose to venture out or perfectly set up for a dinner party or games night with friends if you prefer to stay in. All of the rooms were made up with pristine linens and the comfiest fluffy duvets, pillows, and mattresses. Everyone mentioned how well they slept. There were plenty of towels and toiletries in each bathroom, and just the right amount of showers and mirrors to keep a group of nine girls satisfied! We enjoyed every minute of our stay at the Paragon Townhouse, and would recommend to any group of friends or family looking to make their stay in Bath special.

United KingdomThere's nothing we didn't like but perhaps two points future travellers would want to consider: 1. There are a LOT of narrow, winding stairs which you totally expect in Bath but those with mobility challenges may struggle 2. When we went it was very cold / snowing and even with heating on and extra fan heaters we were still quite chilly given that the house is very old. There were blankets in the living room which were well used so just take a few jumpers if visiting in the colder months.
Fave things about the accommodation were: - The hosts - they were absolutely fantastic, friendly and really helpful / communicative in the build up to and during our stay. - Location - perfect for exploring Bath and all the sites easily on foot - Facilities - Good quality fixtures, fittings and utilities in the house. Lovely comfortable beds and cosy bed linen.

Very spacious and comfortable property in the heart of Bath. The townhouse was very well equipped, and the welcome basket was a lovely extra. The house is wonderfully quirky, and you certainly get your daily step count in up and diwn the stairs! Sandrine provided excellent communication prior to and during our stay.

United KingdomOnly a minor niggle; the kitchen is a bit on the dark side, even with the supplied lights. It is however in a cellar actually under the footpath and road so can't really complain! Also, be aware the house spans the steps between two popular streets and can get a little noisy on a Saturday night (it was Christmas!) All part of the charm.
Location was perfect for Bath centre. House full of character perfect for the city with a bit of history too. All you need for a large group stay for a few days. Warm and cosy. Sandrine was ever so attentive, especially for our Christmas stay
