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.).

We only wanted a room for the night, no food. The hotel was very comfortable, clean etc. No complaints and very reasonable. We chose it for proximity to family and will use again.

United KingdomRoom in need of a deep clean, not just a daily clean. Lots of dust on light shades, window sills as well as above and below the glass surfaces for television and tea making facilities. Also the bath would benefit greatly with a handrail to aide assistance getting in and out.
Good size room. Bright, welcoming and nicely decorated restaurant.

United KingdomOnly minor little things prevented a top marks. Curtain hanging off the hook, very minor issue with the sink that was sorted in seconds. Tiny things but a very relaxing stay and as stated I will be back
Positives far outweighed the negatives and I will be back. Staff were exceptionally friendly, best hotel sleep ever and a super breakfast. Easy check in and out.

United KingdomThe general areas/staircases and halls looked as though they needed hoovering. The room was quite a walk from reception through a maze of stairways and corridors, possibly not suitable for older or inform guests.
Simple check in process, nice bar facilities and gardens. The room was clean, modern and well equipped.

United KingdomThe only issue we had was that the bed in the superior room was two beds put together. This caused an uncomfortable line in the middle when sleeping. Staff however were more than friendly in offering alternative rooms, however the only rooms that didn’t have this were smaller standard. We decided to stay and just requested an extra duvet which we slept on and made it more comfortable
Staff were really helpful and friendly and wild accommodate any request. Very welcoming and facilities were really good.

United KingdomNothing really to dislike, the place is getting work done to it, but it didn't interfere with my stay at all.
Great location to stay, the room was a good size, bed was comfy, even though it was a single bed & it had the usual tea/coffee making facilities. The breakfast next morning was very good too, definitely worth the money & wouldn't hesitate to stay there again the next time I'm nearby.

United KingdomDecor needs some refreshing. My room overlooked dustbins. Corridors leading to bedrooms rather non-descript and in need of pictures and colour.
It’s a country hotel set in its own grounds - spacious with a terrace, gardens, bar and attractive restaurant.

United KingdomWe were in a family room and it was a really hot day/evening. The windows do not have safety catches on so there was no way to have the windows open safely with children in the room. The child's single bed was also directly below the window so there was no way we could risk this.
Check-in was easy. Room was clean. Staff were friendly, especially female member of staff at breakfast. Great selection at breakfast. Easy check-out.

United KingdomBreakfast was okay but when I went up there were only 3 mushrooms and no eggs left I think they were refilled but by that time I was ready to leave but what I had was nice enough. It was only a one night stay. Nothing bad about it.
The hotel was fine for what i needed simple but comfortable and more importantly room was clean.

AustraliaWe were there for 10 days and whilst we got clean towels whenever we wanted them, the bed linen wasn’t changed at all during our stay. The bin was emptied and consumables were Restocked, but the room wasn’t vacuumed either. I know it’s hard to get enough staff, and the place was clean enough on arrival, so any things which needed cleaning were our own doing, I did think this was unusual.
The hotel is very comfortable and the grounds make it feel very rural even though the property is Close to Redditch Town Centre. The staff were lovely.
