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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

CanadaBathroom, shower drain didn’t drain properly. Front end staff didn’t acknowledge us when we arrived, even if they are on the phones they can make eye contact to at least acknowledge our presence. Had to request additional towels as I booked the room for four people but only three towels provided. Use the information provided to you to ensure adequate supplies.
Room was clean. Bed was clean. Basic room, kinda surprised there were no coffee makers in the rooms or tea. Kinda expensive for one night, but it did the job. Breakfast was good and warm, lots of variety.

We chose to stay in Dartmouth making use of the ferry for our visit to Halifax. This Best Western hotel was very good with spacious rooms, great front desk staff, and a restaurant on site. The beds were very comfortable, & the room was clean with all the expected amenities.

CanadaOur first night we were in an awful room where the air conditioner was insanely loud (like a jet engine turning on and off) and kept us up all night. The shower head also didn't work. Staff were accommodating and let us switch rooms. The room we switched to was MUCH quieter.
Pool and waterslide were great! Loved the close proximity to Halifax. Good breakfast selection at the buffet each morning.

United KingdomFound random bits of pepperoni on the carpet in the bedroom. Nothing much within walking distance, you definitely need a car to stay here. Quiet the first few nights of the week but once Thursday hit it was pandemonium with kids racing around and shouting in the corridor and parents talking to each other outside our room and between room doors until 10.30pm, not sure what it would be like at a weekend. Pool constantly filled with kids. More suited to people with kids.
Picked the location as a base from which to do day trips. Breakfast buffet nothing special but edible. Plenty of fresh towels and toiletries available, comfortable beds. Staff very friendly. Enjoyed the restaurant/bar in the hotel - the food was very nice and serving staff very friendly too. Plenty of parking available. Close to a couple of retail parks if driving. Has self service laundry facilities just need change!

We were celebrating our 50th anniversary and the hotel upgraded us to a suite, which we really enjoyed. The bed was so comfortable, and they served a great breakfast with lots of choices. Staff was friendly and helpful.
