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 KingdomCould have been more in the kitchen to cook with, for example there was no baking trays to put pizza in the oven and needed more pans to cook breakfast, also would have been nice to have a couple of bin liners available in the lodge for rubbish. Also there was no small vacuum/ sweeping brush to have a bit more of a tidy round. But apart from that it was lovely.

The lodge was large with plenty space. We were only there 2 nights but plenty comfort to stay for longer period.

Allerthorpe Country Park is outstanding. Lovely safe space to walk the dog with lovely surroundings. The Crucible was 5 star and had everything we needed and more. The hot tub is a bonus. Jj's is worth a visit too. Nice and relaxing for a quiet drink and exceptional menu for food.

United KingdomCommunication direct to property via booking.com was non existent. I tried on numerous occasions to contact them to ask a question but never had a reply. Even contacted booking.com who responded immediately and they contacted the property and they couldn’t get a reply. In the end, I googled the actual park found a phone number and they did answer the phone. So that was a bit of an unnecessary complication. Cutlery in lodge was a bit of a mish mash. There was a plastic fork and a small baby fork instead of 6 adult size. That was a bit annoying. I would say 4 people could comfortably stay in lodge not 6 as we did. The pull out bed in lounge was extremely uncomfortable. When we stripped the double bed at the end of our stay theyre we’re stains on mattress. That wasn’t a nice experience.
Location was great. Hot tub was fab. Although, at times, as the temperature was automatically set - it was too hot to enjoy so you could only manage 5 minutes and you would have to get out. The decor was modern and inviting. Parking was handy right next to lodge. Everything was convenient.

United KingdomThe 1st night heating wouldn’t work so we was all absolutely freezing then it came on at 1am to 29degrees so was physically sick due to heat so had to turn boiler off as wouldn’t go off. The hot tub was absolutely disgusting it was horrid when we actually got in and seen the bits and crap floating around and on top we was mortified, we even took a video so we could show it if needed. so we never went back in the hot tub after this even though that was part of the booking we had made for my husbands 40th birthday.
The property was beautiful

United Kingdomit was missing a few basics and some things weren’t working properly/ broken. (lights in kitchen not working, no pizza cutter, tray in oven really dirty and caused a lot of smoke in the oven, bin abnormally small, no towels for hot tub, dirty linen left inside the front door from previous stay?
it was really peaceful; the sofas were comfortable and it was more spacious than we were expecting

United KingdomThe restaurant food was terrible. Ordered a steak which came dry and cold. The wife was vegetarian and they didn't have veggie gravy to go with veggie sausages.. Meals on the menu came different to what was advertised. For a park with expensive lodges you'd expect a lot better food than frozen stuff warmed up.
Good location for York centre and Outlet shopping centre.

United KingdomAlthough we paid for 5 people, when we got there, the sofa bed which was meant for the 5th person, Wasn’t made up at all, and the bedding wasn’t even left out. We had to search for it all over the lodge. Considering the 5th person paid for their place this didn’t seem acceptable. Also they took our deposit for damages by mistake instead of the lodge next door. Took a good week to get it back!
Value for money, loved the hot tub.
