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.).

We did find all the stairs slightly inconvenient with bags and so-so. It's so very British 😁 We did fine, and we were offered help by the staff👍(but declined)
We wanted a room only to sleep in. We flew over to UK to meet our first grandchild🤗 The Garforth Holiday Inn sued us perfectly❗️24H service. Easy to find and predictable.

As a family of 3 we enjoyed our stay here. It was close to where we were spending the day. The swimming pool was nice and we swam both days and used the sauna and steam room. Bedrooms were very clean.

We booked a family room, as we checked in and entered the room we discovered that the sofabed wasn't made and no bedding available. Telephone didn't work so couldn't call reception. Although as a family with 2 boys a double sofabed isn't ideal so ended up sleeping parent child in each bed (unfortunately I got the short straw and shared the bed with my son, not the most comfortable and very noisy each time you turned over. Only down point was it took a while to replenish some of the cooked food so ended up missing out on some of the items I wanted.
A quick walk back to reception and after speaking to a staff member, he was back at our room within 10 minutes and made the sofa bed up for us. Breakfast was nice with plenty of variety. Had an indoor pool, shame our journey meant we didn't have had time to use it.

The slight downfall was the distance from Reception to our room when the room card sadly failed to work but only happened once.
The property was chosen as it was an ideal distance to travel in for Ironman Leeds. There was an issue with the booking but this was swiftly resolved by the helpful staff on reception and additional tea making supplies happily provided. The property also offered great facilities.

Staff members were a little slow in serving, felt lack of training possibly issue. Main reception staff when checking in on the Saturday wasn’t overly warm with staff continuing conversation in between paused moments.
Nicely decorated and modern. Good facilities.

Rooms stank of smoke (my colleague had to change his 3 times), no bottled water was available in rooms and the telephone in the room didn't work. Staff made a fuss that I would have to wait until 15:00 for my room to be ready on check-in instead. When in fact the email I received said 14:00.

The hotel is tired, outdated, flies in the restaurant & generally in need of a refurb & update. Expensive for what it is compared to many other places I stay for work.
