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.).

United KingdomThe breakfast was very nice although it's a bit unusual to have the cereal poured out for you in advance. I'd prefer to have chosen my own portion as they poured quite a lot! The photo of the front of the house on booking.com could do with being updated as the front door had changed so we couldn't find it at first.
Marilyn was extremely thoughtful and welcoming and the location of the property is excellent for the centre of Harrogate and for the Convention Centre. The room was immaculate, beautifully decorated and very comfortable.

United KingdomThe cooked breakfast is fantastic and the hosts were very welcoming and generous. The room was beautiful and very comfortable with fresh fruit and other snacks provided, and the location is convenient for the train station and centre of town. Had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend! I've visited Harrogate a couple of times before and this was by far the nicest place I've stayed.

I had a very comfortable weekend in a lovely clean room. Extra touches like a bowl of fruit, fresh milk and proper crockery made very personal. Marilyn was very attentive and made sure that all was well. More personal than a big hotel, would definitely stay again.

We had great stay at 16 Franklin. Marilyn was very welcoming, our room was warm and very comfortable with everything you might need. Breakfast was excellent. 16 Franklin is very conveniently located for the center of Harrogate and the conference centre and parking on the street outside the property was very easy.

United KingdomMy husband and I had an excellent weekend stay in Harrogate at 16 Franklin. Marilyn and her husband were so welcoming and chatty, keen to recommend places they thought we would like and directing us into town. I was worried about parking on the road but there was plenty of space and Marilyn gave us a pass for it to be free. It was a very short walk into Harrogate. The house and room are beautifully presented. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom facilities excellent. Breakfast was absolutely delicious with large portions to set you up for the day. Thank you very much for having us.
