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 KingdomThis hotel has amazing views over Cardiff and was a great place to stay when we were going to an event at Principality Stadium - with the train station a very short drive away. The room we had was huge and really comfortable.

United KingdomGorgeous room, spotlessly clean. We arrived late and hadn't eaten so the receptionist/bar man rustled us up a sandwich! There was a wedding party in the hotel ready for a wedding the next day, but our room was on the other side of the hotel and we weren't disturbed at all. Great views over Cardiff!

United KingdomThe dining room. It could be improved with some pictures on the walls as the room wasn't very welcoming. The external paintwork on the windows needed doing as it was flaking off badly and was looking rather shabby from the dining room, and the climbers were blocking the light.
Stunning location. Beautiful views. Loved the terrace. Helpful and friendly staff. Lynne on Reception was particularly helpful. Delicious food in the restaurant. Comfy bed. Great shower.

United KingdomOverall the breakfast was good. I think the mushrooms and fruit were tinned which I didnt like and would have liked wholemeal bread. It would have been nice to have had hot milk with the coffee.
The room was lovely, much larger than I expected, with a view over the garden. The communal areas were very good with seats by the windows and very comfortable. Lots of seating on terrace and in the garden.

United KingdomThe responses of staff differed. There were some that offered lots of positive enthusiasm, other staff members less so. For breakfast, the plates weren't always topped up and food missing from the hotplates.
The suite that we stayed in was amazing; especially for the price that we payed it was exceptional. We were really impressed with this space. It came with a side lounge and lovely views of Cardiff City. Picturesque.
