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 KingdomBed was too hard and were not happy with the pillows. Limited menu was very disappointing and the restaurant is only open at weekends. Family members having visited in the past felt the hotel standards had slipped. On previous visits the restaurant meal was a very good standard with attentive staff.
Good location for meeting family. Breakfast was acceptable, but no indication at the table re alternatives or extras.

United KingdomDidn't agree with paying for the facilities eg pool etc, never heard of anything so ridiculous, I booked it knowing there was a pool, I would have cancelled it, if I had known we had to pay I wouldn't have gone, thought it was disgusting. The view from the room was roof tops, very depressing I had asked for a nice room for our anniversary, so was Dissappointed. Room very tired.
The location was good The staff were friendly Most of the room was fine

United KingdomIt was disappointing that the dining room was not open for dinner, and we had to use the bar instead.The menu was the same every night and was rather limited. One of lamps in suite didn't work, & bedside lamps were difficult to work due to need to use 3 switches to put each one on.
Room was good size with appropriate facilities, well furnished & clean. breakfast was well organised & had an excellent choice. Staff at breakfast were especially helpful.

United KingdomThe room, we booked a suite which was very dated and run down. Bed was super uncomfortable, very hard which resulted in very little sleep. The bedroom was complete with a dressing table but we were unable to use it for hair/makeup purposes as no mirror or plug sockets provided next to the table. Had to pay extra to use the leisure facilities which I feel should be included in the price especially for a suite.
Leisure facilities where the best part of the hotel (although you had pay extra to access) Staff were friendly and helpful. Entrance / bar area well maintained.

United KingdomThe duvet on the bed needs to be a summer duvet. It was too hot so bad night’s sleep. Felt I was in the dungeon with a basement room and no lift access to get there just stairs and long, long corridors.
I have stayed here twice before so know the hotel standard is good. Staff are friendly and helpful

United KingdomThe breakfast was poor. Not much choice and poor quality. Cold, dry bacon, lukewarm fried egg that had sat there for a while and stale bread (I tried to make myself a bacon and egg sandwich but the bread was only for for toasting. The room decor and bathroom were rather outdated but that didn’t bother me since the bed was comfy.
The staff were friendly and helpful. I was pleased to be upgraded to the main building without requesting it. I loved the spa and pool, it made for a very pleasant stay and made the experience more luxurious.

United KingdomAttitude of the bar staff was extremely poor - I ordered a pint and a meal, and then was informed that I could not charge it to my room (even though I had my key and card with me) and the pint was literally taken out of my hand! I ended up having my meals and drinks over the road at The Falcons Nest, meaning that the hotel lost out on quite a bit of money!
Check in was efficient and friendly. Room was a reasonable size, comfortable, and had a nice power shower.

Hong KongA little noisy certain nights (e g. Saturday) when functions taking place or bar open late and smokers stand outside entrance talking loudly and within earshot of the rooms at that end of the building. But not a major issue.
Excellent location for getting around the North East by car. Friendly staff. Big car park. Good size rooms available. Very good value. Breakfast available and also good value.

United KingdomRooms are tired and in need of updating. Sheets were lovely and clean but not a very comfortable mattress and the runner on the bed was stained. Windows in need of replacing as could hear voices from outside quite late into the night. Very slow service due to lack of staff at both the bar and the reception. Confusing signage regarding car parking. Massive sign to scan the QR code for parking but no indication that for residents this does not apply as you register car details via a touch screen.
Great location and large car park
