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 KingdomNot many veggie options (e.g. veggie bacon or sausage etc) for breakfast - could be something to improve but not a deal breaker. No fridge in the room, despite needing one (to store medication), could be improved for a 4* hotel
Amazing hotel - great facilities. Could not believe the size of the room - wow!! Huge!! Fantastic spa and pool, lovely sauna, steam room and hot tub. We didn't pay a lot for 4/5 nights and it far exceeded our expectations. Great breakfast for meat eaters, lovely bar and great drink prices - nothing felt 'a rip off' and welcoming staff.

United KingdomThe room was nice and spacious, and everything was very clean, which made for a comfortable stay. The view from the window looked out onto a rooftop/patio, so it wasn’t particularly great, but the facilities more than made up for it. Tea coffee facilities were great. The spa and swimming area were excellent, definitely the highlight of the stay. The spa staff, in particular, were wonderful; they always greeted us with a smile whenever we went in or out, which really added a welcoming touch. The rest of the hotel staff were generally okay, though I felt it would have been nicer to see a bit more warmth and friendliness. One small downside during my visit was that the lift wasn’t working, which was a little inconvenient. Overall, I had a beautiful time here. I would definitely visit again and recommend this hotel to others.

United KingdomBooking.com need to make it clear that the price DOES NOT include the photographed pool or spa area/gym WITHOUT paying an additional cost to the hotel. Massively deceptive, leaving me feeling swindled and without option to cancel as it is non-refundable. Not a happy BOOKING.COM customer

United KingdomOdd experience with a waitress who took AGES to bring out our desserts and wouldn't tell us why LOL. The manager came to our table, was extremely apologetic and kindly offered us a refund. The lift didn't work but they did offer to help us with our luggage, which we appreciated. The bathroom was clean but had a damp smell of unknown origin.The grout on the outside of the shower base needs to be redone as it looked mouldy. And the seal along the bottom outside of the sink lifted, so water was leaking out.
Used to visit Sketchley regularly in the past but stopped for a while as standards dropped. Thrilled to see how much Sketchley has since improved! Beautiful refurb since last visit. Lovely room as always. Brilliant breakfast service and food. Dinner was great. Mostly excellent staff. Spa and pool absolutely brilliant with lots of safety mats and all facilities working well. Really pleased to see the leisure decor refreshed and that the floor of the pool on the once deep end has now been raised. This is very good for safety as there is no lifeguard.

United KingdomPayment for pets per night rather than one off payment and payment is required to use the pool
Booking through Booking.com causes extra charges at the hotel. Extra charges of pets per night which was not mentioned and payment to use the pool and gym is alao required

United KingdomThe Spa times for 14-16 year olds could be a little longer than the standard kids usage times even just an hour longer to allow more time to use facilities throughout a stay.
All the staff from start to finish were extremely attentive. Clare in the restaurant went above and beyond to make sure allergens were checked for my daughter throughout our stay. The childrens cheque book was a really good idea.

United KingdomWe were placed in room 166 which was well away from any possible noise, which was great. However there was no view from the window what so ever. Didn't really detract from our stay but it's always nice to have something to see outside.
Everything was as expected having visited before. Room was clean and tidy, staff helpful, and breakfast was lovely. The spa always helps for complete our stay.

United KingdomHours for children to use the pool area are restricted - we would likely have stayed in the pool area all day otherwise; however, I am sure adults travelling without children much appreciate the restrictions!
Comfortable and clean room with a spacious bathroom. The restaurant was great - luckily, we timed our breakfasts right but some people did have to wait for a few minutes for space in the restaurant to be able to get theirs. The breakfast itself was great - lots of variety and quality food. We also ate in the lovely bar area, which was fairly priced and has a good menu. We loved that you get a £5 bar voucher if you forego turndown... although we forgot to claim our voucher! The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and the hotel is a 30 minute walk or a 5 minute drive to the town of Hinckley. The pool is a good size, with a lovely sauna, steam room and hot tub jacuzzi. Towels are provided in here, which was very useful. Overall, a really great hotel. Thank you :)
