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 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):
- 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.).

12 pounds for an average, small English breakfast is overpriced. The pastries were not fresh and the toast very thin. Yoghurt tubs were left out unrefrigerated.
The room was reasonably sized, comfortable and clean. A ten-minute walk to the Manchester Arndale Mall, the hotel is in a great location. Having parking onsite for a reasonable price is very handy. We had breakfast the first morning, which we rated as ok - not great - and overpriced.

I typically wouldn't choose this place, but a friend recommended it. The room was quite small, and the bathroom facilities were very cramped, though sufficient for a quick stay. It's not a hotel where you can really relax. While the night staff were not very friendly, the day staff were much more pleasant.
The property location was amazing

The decor was a bit faded- functional but needed brightening up a bit. The bathroom was on the small side- I was ok but anyone large would struggle a bit in the shower cubicle…
The room was clean and comfortable and the staff did everything to help me store my bicycle safely while I stayed there.

Got charged £30 for 2 day parking for the first time after we had booked a non refundable room. Stayed here several times before and with Filter for Free Parking there was no notification that this time we would be forced to pay £30 for parking. As we had stayed there many times before we booked non refundable but then got hit with an extra £30 for parking. Extremely disappointed - more with Booking.com than the hotel but generally not very happy at all and feel conned.!
Location near to family we were visiting

The room was very small, especially the bathroom, where you could hardly use the sink or get dressed without bumping your arms against the shower doors. Also, the shower doors did not close properly. The pillows weren’t very comfortable, as they were too thin, and there were no others available in the room, only 1 per bed (did not ask at the reception, though).
Close to the city centre. The staff were nice. The room had a TV with multiple channels available. Kettle, tea, and coffee available in the room. Good hairdryer available in the room. The room’s temperature was comfortable.
