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 KingdomSTEPS & STAIRS! Be warned, do not bring a big case unless you’re feeling fit & strong, lots of stairs, no lift. We had to duck under a very low doorway into a bathroom which had no hot water or shower, only a bath to get to the bedroom! No other way into it. Very steep steps.
Location is fab, the pub below is lovely, great food & breakfast was included. Beds were very comfortable.

United KingdomCould do with a freshening up a bit. Something had been taken down from the walls in our room and the wholes were just left. The shower poll kept coming away from the wall. The floor made a terrible noise. I would have hated to stay in the room below.
Comfortable and clean. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

United KingdomWhenever we used the bathroom facilities there would be an awful noise from the plumbing system that lasted for a few seconds, this woke us up a couple of times as other people used the bathroom. The shower-room itself was extremely cramped and the hot water from the tap didn’t work too well because the tap was on a timer.
Location and view from window was excellent, and hotel staff were lovely, breakfast was included which was 10/10, would love to return

United KingdomRoom was ok. Not the best standard. Lots of chips on the wall, locks were old school, lots of stairs to climb with luggage. With the price you’re paying for the location, the hotel interior is mediocre at best.
Location is fantastic, lovely breakfast in the morning. Staff were very friendly.

United KingdomThe bar had a problem with a licence and could not serve alcohol, which I was extremely disappointed about , I would love to have been informed before my stay that this was going to be the case, also it is advertised that breakfast to the room is a option but when asked I was just told, no we don't do that.

IcelandThe room was not clean, we found empty bottle on the floor, and a plastic cap in other place on the floor also. I saw that the black blanket on the bed was very dirty when I lifted it up, it had many white spots on it as after yogurt. And there was a hair in the bathroom.
Good price, very good central location and good breakfast. Friendly staff.

GermanyBathroom was very small, could not sit properly on toilet as I am tall (1.84 meters) and the sink was right next to it. The bathroom made a very loud noise after using it (toilet, sink, or shower) TV did not have smart functionality, and had a weird resolution. The church nearby had a bell that rang non-stop for minutes. Shower pressure was on the low side.
Bed was comfy TV had easily accessible HDMI Nice view from window 24/7 Staff that were very nice Very close to Piccadilly Gardens, easy to go around Very cheap to get an uber to the hotel from Piccadilly Station

United KingdomThe room was covered in dust, the bathroom had other peoples hair all over it. The room stank of cigarette smoke. Not good when you book a family room with children. The corridor leading to our room stank of marijuana.
In the middle of the town centre. The staff were lovely. The breakfast was lovely. Pretty on the outside. The beds were really comfortable.

United KingdomThe whole place felt grubby and a bit seedy tbh. The carpet in our room was distinctly dirty and I didn’t like the way the windows could open all the way into an internal area - extremely dangerous if you had young children. Saying that the hotel is old but it really could do with a makeover particularly with the prices they were charging.
Very central location and the Reception team were friendly enough.
