How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewWell done cleaning staff, the accommodation was lovely and clean. Chef - the meals were good. Reception and bar staff very nice. Plenty parking. Great leisure facility. Good touring base.
The establishment doesn't take CASH and you are only told this after making the booking. The vending machine for drinks etc was empty. The restaurant staff did their job well however they did not meet and greet "hello, good morning, good bye" was missing from their conversation - they just went straight to asking for a room number.

Verified reviewLovely hotel. Room was spacious and although a bit dated was clean, great shower too
Extra charges for early check in and then again for use of pool. Additional £15 seemed steep.

Verified reviewJust the location
The rooms and toilets were dirty and the toilets smelled we had to buy a air freshener just to get rid of the smell and there was no facilities for drinking water they kept cups in the toilet for water so we had to buy our own water. And the lights did not work. We left the hotel 2 nights before because of the bad quality.

Verified reviewIt was a beautiful hotel, spotlessly clean and the woman on reception was very nice. The rooms have everything you would need including tea and coffee facilities, iron and ironing board and a fan. If I had one gripe it would be that you have to pay for the use of the pool. I've never had that before. I paid 99 pounds for a room only so at that price you'd expect to be able to use the facilities for free. It just seems a bit money grabbing to me. But other than that I can't fault the hotel at all.

Verified reviewStaff were friendly, room was comfy and clean, food was very good.
Didn't know we'd have to pay to use the pool, nor that we'd have to wait for a slot to get in. Had to entertain a 5 year old at reception for half an hour till we could get in, but the pool was very nice.

Verified reviewI liked the location, the rooms were clean and spacious and there was a decent selection of alcohol in the bars.
The beds were very bouncy and not so comfortable, we were woken up early by men removing scaffolding from the building. No cash bar.
