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 KingdomTV was very small, a bit too much of a hike to the room. Corridors were not very well light at night! The bar area was not welcoming at all. But there are lots of bars and restaurants close by.
Located in the centre of town, very convenient. However, you do need to find parking which is reasonably easy and free. Lots of stairs and long narrow corridors (its an old building). No lift available. Bathroom had a good bath and excellent shower, with Shower gel, shampoo and conditioner provided. Room was spotlessly clean with nice white bedding. Tea / Coffee were provided, and the wifi worked really well. Lauren on reception was particularly helpful.

United KingdomLights in room didn't work properly, shower unusable as couldn't change temperature, bath plug couldn't be pulled out as no chain , had to use a spoon. Wasn't given the WiFi code when booked in as should have been And wasn't told there was a club nearby keeping us awake until 4am ,
The room was nice, beds comfy, breakfast yummy, As a whole hotel was nice, small balcony to the front was lovely and good for some pics , the flower wall on landing was just perfect for our pre wedding photos , The young girl working on Sunday morning was brilliant, cheary and helpful despite being on her own. The park nearby was lovely and a good local taxi service with friendly drivers who we used to get to our nieces wedding at Grendon lakes

United KingdomThe bathroom being so small. The hotel really needs a good tidy up and redecoration. It's looking tired.
Receptionist Hayley was very friendly and helpful. She helped with our accommodation following an accident that I'd had recently and hurt my leg. Check in was easy. Room was nice with a comfortable big bed. The bathroom and shower were tiny though. Breakfast very nice. Parking pretty easy.

United KingdomBathroom let the room down. Not very well finished off, and toilet seat broken. No lights in long corridor to bedroom in night. Only one bottle of water & one packet of biscuits despite booking for two. A little stingy on the refreshments.
Central location good. Breakfast was great. Staff friendly and helpful. Lucky to be able to park in courtyard car park.

United KingdomThe only thing I didn't like was beng too hot sleeping under the duvet and being woken by the street cleaning crew in the early hours of the morning, but this was beyond the hotels control.
Room was clean and comfortable and had everything required including toiletrees, a fan and hairdryer. I stayed in room 114 which was at the side of the property above the outdoor seating area. Into the evening it did get a little noisy but didnt disturb my evening. Bed was comfortable but under duvet I was incredibly hot so discarded this part way through night. (Sure this would be lovely in the winter months) As you would expect in this style of property noise can be heard from the corridor but again didnt disturb my sleep. I was woken early hours of the morning by the street cleaning crew cleaning the side street above my rooom but this is outside of the hotels control. Breakfast was fanatastic-I had the full english which was cooked to perfection and served piping hot. I travelled for business and would certainly stay here again if visiting the local area.

United KingdomDue to the location being in the centre of town, the room being next to the main road, and it being a Saturday night; there was a plethora of ridiculously drunk people randomly fighting in the street and shouting and swearing at the top of their voices. This went on until about 4am and it was impossible to sleep through. Also, I had paid extra for what was described as an extra large bed but turned out to be a small double bed.
The room was beautiful with a beautiful bath tub and some little luxuries like a hot chocolate sachet and some biscuits. The morning breakfast had great options and the staff were very friendly and attentive.
