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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 StatesThe breakfast was ok, although the coffee needs a definite upgrade. The property includes lots of little stairs and passageways that while charming are inconvenient. Some of the day staff are less than warm.
Very good location. Some staff were exceptionally nice and helpful. Especially those that worked later in the day. (I arrived late and tired and appreciated the kindness of the evening reception staff

United KingdomThere is no breakfast provided but that didn't bother us, we walked 5 minutes to The Boston Tea Party and had a wonderful breakfast.
The owner met us on arrival, he was delightful, very chatty and helpful. The room was immaculately clean with one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. We told the owner in advance that we drank oat milk and we had sachets available on our tea tray.

United KingdomThe room felt cramped having brought two large suitcases and lack of space to put them. The hairdryer was faulty but it was quickly replaced with a new one. It would have been lovely to have a power shower, a small shelf in the shower for soap rather than having to put everything on the floor of the shower and you couldn’t put the shower on until you had closed the door, so cold water at the start.
Excellent staff who were always very helpful and obliging. Great breakfast very reasonably priced. The hotel was within an easy walk to all visitor attractions.

It was easy to find, clean and comfortable. Our room had a newly decorated ensuite which was great. Easy to operate shower. We were at the back of the hotel so very quiet therefore good sleep.

United KingdomThere was nothing I didn't like, and I was fine as I have good mobility, however, there are a lot of stairs to deal with so might be a consideration for some people. Didn't notice if there was a lift.
My room was comfortable and compact (single room) - clean and sufficient for my needs. Chose to have breakfast at the hotel - very reasonably priced and selection of food was good. Location was perfect for the City Centre, Train Station and Corn Exchange which was the purpose of our visit.
