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 price was high though I believe this was because it was the last weekend of the fringe festival and there were several large concerts on at the same time
Room was spotlessly clean and the amenities were good, had dinner and breakfast which were both excellent and great value for money. The location is ideal if visiting Murrayfield stadium. Bus stop just outside

United StatesIt seemed really expensive but then everything in and around Edinburgh was really expensive. windows didn't open and room was warm. They brought us a fan
Great location. Bus stop right in front of hotel. The Carvery was the cheapest dinner we had on the trip. Breakfast was good. Parking is really super and the back entrance from the parking lot to the rooms is great. The security is superb.. Liked the pub too. People were really nice. Would definitely come again.

CanadaUnfortunately we did hear a bit of noise from our neighbours above us, that impacted how we slept sometimes. I also felt that it could have been a bit cleaner, particularly in the bathroom (found some strands of hair) and the room floor could be vacuumed more thoroughly.
Overall, we did have a nice stay. We particularly liked the staff as they were very friendly with us. Particularly with me as I have dietary restrictions, I really felt like they went out of their way to accommodate my needs. The location was okay (on the outskirts) but relatively easy to get to the centre.

United StatesSmall room. No AC during very warm weather. Windows wouldn't open more than an inch. Not a great breakfast. Considering the cost not great value.
Close to bus stop, although 25 minute ride to center. Convenient for drinks, food and other local restaurants.

Good sized room with a lovely bathroom and shower. Location is convenient for the airport or a relatively short journey into central Edinburgh. We didn’t take up the breakfast option but it looked like it was very good value for money.

CyprusWe booked breakfast because of the great reviews, but it was actually disappointing. The selection was very limited — only fried eggs, hash browns, sausages, and beans. Everything was extremely greasy and swimming in oil, with no fresh vegetables at all. You could ask for an apple at the reception, which felt strange — why not simply put them on the buffet?
The hotel was nice, nothing particularly special. It had a good shower and a comfortable bed. The location is a bit far from the city center, but very convenient for the airport.

United KingdomThe location of the hotel was a little far out but very easy to get to with the excellent bus service. The room was lovely and quiet at the back of the hotel, nice big comfy bed, could do with some better pillows they weren’t the best. Good shower. Food was not amazing, have had better at other Toby’s. The staff in the restaurant however were very lovely.

United KingdomBecause it’s on a main road it can be a bit noisy but once windows are closed and you’re tired you do get to sleep.
The property was in a good location. Bus stop was right outside and the buses were frequent into the town. The oasis concert was on at the same time as the fringe which meant it took longer than usual to travel though. All staff from front staff, to waitresses to cleaners were all very friendly and helpful and made the stay enjoyable. Angela was so funny and friendly and gave us advice when we asked. I would definately recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Edinburgh.
