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 reviewGood central location in town centre. Plenty of on street parking near the hotel. Friendly greeting - no issue when booking in 30 minutes early. Good VFM.
Room was incredibly warm. No bedside cabinet/table. When checking out there was nobody to be seen - ended up having to go downstairs into the bar attached to the hotel to hand in keys.

Verified reviewThe location was good - easy to find, local authority parking nearby, close to areas and attractions we wanted to visit. Our room was clean and comfortable, and two windows on opposite walls allowed us plenty of fresh air. The fridge in the room was handy for sandwiches and drinks etc, and there was plenty of drawer and hanging space. The bathroom had a good amount of space at the window for us to unpack our toiletries, and the fan was effective without being noisy. Towels were clean and fresh, hand soap was provided, and the over mirror light was very useful. Having a restaurant and bar in the hotel is very convenient. Restaurant serves standard pub grub, and the menu has a good choice of dishes to suit most at reasonable prices. The food we ordered was hot and tasty, and delivered to table in good time. Decent selection of drinks available, my favourite tipple wasn't stocked here but I was happy with the other choices on offer. The room price is fair for what's on offer, there's no frills or bells and whistles, but it made for a comfortable base after being out and about all day.
Bar patrons could quite clearly be heard from the room, and they were a noisy bunch. Even with a Bluetooth sleep mask, I could quite clearly hear them singing and shouting. Lovely that they were having a nice time, but the bar should perhaps remind patrons that hotel guests - and likely local people as well - are trying to sleep. Having to order breakfast the night before wasn't ideal, so we chose to have breakfast somewhere else. The restaurant is also closed on a Tuesday, so I'm not sure how we would have ordered for the Wednesday as staff never mentioned this when checking in, we only noticed a sign at the restaurant door as we were leaving for the day.
