How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe room size was very good. The location was superb 10 mins walk into centre.
Was lead to believe we had chosen a free standing bath plus walk in monsoon shower. We didn’t get that we got a shower over a bath. This made it difficult for my wife who has had back surgery twice.

There were a couple of aspects where the hotel would benefit from a bit more care and attention to detail. A red bull can outside our first floor not removed, some rusting on bathroom pipes that had extended onto tiles

The only thing I noticed was that I could hear vents outside my window which were quite loud at times but I got off to sleep so it wasn’t too much of a problem.

Verified reviewThe location. The room was well equipped and comfortable with a lovely big bath and walk in shower. Dinner was lovely at the bistro
The room had a very odd layout- the door opened into the bathroom which you had to walk through to get to the main bedroom. The breakfast wax really disappointing- burnt pastries and cold black pudding. When we booked we told the hotel it was our 22nd wedding anniversary but there were no nice little touches to acknowledge this. Every hotel we have stayed in for special occasions have given us a nice little extra. Finally we were absolutely fleeced at the local carpark (our fault not the hotels but it ended up costing us 60 pounds to park for 24 hrs!)
Dear Philip, Thank you for sharing your experience with us, we are very happy that you enjoyed your room, and the dinner. All our rooms have a different layout, if you have any preferences please let us know in advance and we can do our best to allocate you in other room. I will be sharing your mentions about the breakfast to our head chef to improve them and with our team to keep an eye on the messages and requests as we love to do some nice details for special occasion. Thank you once again for your feedback, we appreciate it and we will take it on board. Kind regards, Noelia, duty manager

Feeling a little tired and a bit dark. Air conditioning struggled. Used to stay here before Covid and decor still looks the same. Also there used to be a valet parking service which would have helped if still available.
