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.).

Czech RepublicExcellent food on location, finding the carpark was a bit complicated, ut our own fault as we didnt read the email with the instructions to find it properly, the only thing was the beds, it´s like a water bed - if your partner moves you move as well :)

United KingdomThere were just a couple of minor details that didn't detract from our stay, but didn't make much sense either, such as no teaspoons at breakfast and single serving pots of jam and marmalade, but no bread or toaster anywhere to be seen. Other than that, the drains were a bit slow when in the shower, so it nearly overflowed, but this is to be expected with old buildings and I got it flowing again by slapping the drain hole the dislodge the blockage.
The staff were helpful and friendly, the room was clean and inviting, and the prices were good. Will definitely be back next time I stay in Swindon.

United KingdomThe only issue was the large industrial extractor fan about 10 feet away outside our window (room 19) which was on all night and was really loud. Not a lot the hotel can do but it must be an issue for others who have stayed in that room and as the hotel wasn’t full I’m surprised we were out in there.
Central, plenty of parking, good breakfast included, friendly staff, nice room

United KingdomWe were hoping to do a bit of dancing in the disco, but there were so many people there there wasn't room to move.
Recently refurbished room was very clean and comfortable. Food was really good both in the evening and at breakfast. All the staff were friendly and helpful. There was a bit of noise from the bar but not as much as we expected and it didn't affect our sleep.

United KingdomWe loved it!
A Gem in the Heart of the town! Nestled in a prime location, this charming establishment offers more than just a place to rest your head – it's an experience in itself. The modern room, though quaint in size, is thoughtfully designed with every amenity you could desire, and perhaps a few surprises too! But it's the breakfast that truly steals the show. A variety of yummy options awaits, elevating the stay from merely enjoyable to utterly unforgettable. In summary, if you're seeking a centrally located retreat with all the comforts of home and a breakfast that dreams are made of, look no further. This hidden gem promises an experience worth savoring.
