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 KingdomLack of hanging space in the bathroom. With a small tweak of additional hooks or towel rails this would have been 10/10.
All staff were exceptional. Our room was spacious and well appointed. The beds were extremely comfortable. The bathroom had just been refurbished. Despite the fact our room was just off the central atrium space, it was very quiet. Location for Cardiff Castle event perfect. Breakfast quality and selection very good.

United KingdomI had a very unfortunate experience where the gentleman who seemed to be leading the breakfast team assumed that my partner (male, visibly older than me) was the person who made the booking, asked him for his surname for us to access breakfast. Even when I mentioned that the booking was in my name, he continued to speak only to my partner, and barely acknowledged or made eye contact with me. It seems like there were some misogynist assumptions in play here.
The room was pristine and very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent and well-organised. The bar staff were very helpful and happy to make drink recommendations. Reception staff were also very welcoming and happy to help.

United KingdomNo porter to help with luggage so we had to ask the girls on reception which was awkward for them if only one person was there.
Very good location near the Castle and the major shopping centre. The room had everything we needed except a plug near a mirror (for drying your hair). The staff were very helpful, particularly Sara at reception who was extremely patient while I tried to negotiate the Hilton Honors digital system (which is not user-friendly). There was plenty to eat at breakfast but we didn’t eat at Graze, the in-house restaurant. We also found the local NCP car park nearby and were able to leave our car there for 48 hours (though it wasn’t cheap). We would stay here again.
