Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do 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 or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The bathroom was tiny (but doable) and the bath whilst showering was extremely slippy as there wasn't a bath mat etc.
Excellent Customer Service from arrival, Reception Team very helpful and friendly. Five Star service from 'Steph' in the Breakfast Dining Room, excellent customer service, very friendly and attentive. Steph's attention to detail was excellent and my husband and I thank you very much Steph for your brilliant service. Plenty of car parking space. Great location.

- • Family with young children
- • Standard King Room
- • Stayed 1 night
The day before our visit, the Reservations Manager left an answer phone message to me + said my room is to be cancelled without something I cannot remember. I called back and it took 7 minutes to get to the bottom of what the purpose was of the phone call was. In the end it was a call to ask that our card details were up to date on our booking.com account to secure the room. However, in the midst of the conversation, the Reservations Manager made several comments such as, the hotel is over booked, the reservation does not guarantee the room bookings, if there was an issue they would find alternative accommodation for us along with a myriad of different things. He talked over me also. I have booked via booking.com and paid on a arrival a few times at different Holiday Inn properties and have never experienced this. In the end it was broken down to that the card needed to be valid the night before our stay to ensure our booking is secured. Which the card was fine on file and this whole very stressful process could have been avoided. A simple email or text reminder would have been sufficient. I even said on the phone that the whole ordeal gave me extreme anxiety as I was given the impression originally that my booking was cancelled less than 24 hours before our arrival with my very pregnant sister. Had the Reservations Manager just emailed or texted a clear and concise message there would not have been any stress at all.
Breakfast was very nice, and all the employees we had interactions with on site were lovely and helpful. The hotel was clean and the room was nice and quiet.

When we returned in the evening there was no one at the reception to let us in. Luckily another guest was passing and let us in. Unfortunately the hairdryer didn’t work properly. I mentioned this when checking out.
Very friendly and helpful staff. When we arrived the bed was set up for a couple instead of twin beds as requested. The staff were quick to sort this out. The room was immediately clean and everything seemed brand new. Also staff suggested ways of getting into Manchester which was very helpful.
