Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomPotential to be "luxurious" - just a few tweaks to make it so ! Our room overlooked the crossroads, so curtains had to be fully shut for privacy once dusk. Room decent size, bathroom good - but all a bit bumped and banged around the edges. Sealant needs redoing around sink and skirts and hole in back of door where hook should be. We were woken at 08.15am on Bank Hol Mon morning by vigorous hoovering and banging in room above us ( cleaning) and a washing machine on spin cycle vibrating the ceiling!
Central Ilkley, easy to find, iconic, historic building. Large king bed, feather duvet, was very squidgy and comfy. Big fluffy towels. Shabby chic decor. Great powerful shower. Room had no aircon but Dyson fan provided. Friendly staff. Lovely cooked breakfast included.

United KingdomRoom extremely warm, although fan was provided but could open window very much which I do understand due to safety. Quite noisy on. Night even though at the back of the hotel. Music from the Yard was playing until around 01:30 on the Saturday night. No fault of the hotel but It did affect my sleep.
Great location in centre of Ilkley. Very comfortable ed, white linen and soft pillows.

United KingdomRoom felt very cramped overall. Needed a little bit of TLC in the bathroom. Bath panel was jaded. I have mobility issues so shower over bath was tricky for me to manage. Also security code for lift was problematic. We found ourselves unable to get back to lift area when returned to Hotel late eve as all doors seemed locked and keys weren't working so had to struggle with the stairs to access our room
The staff were extremely pleasant and breakfast service and food were excellent. Bed was very comfy. Place had character and like the fact rooms had individual names to represent local landmarks. Nice the place has maintained the original character.

United KingdomThe bedroom was located above the restaurant kitchen, and at times, a low-level noise could be heard from the kitchen extraction system.
Each morning, we choose from a good selection of tasty cooked breakfast options. Prompt service was provided by friendly and helpful staff. We requested a quiet room, and they kindly provided one at the rear of the building overlooking an attractive square.

United KingdomThe only downside. The bathrooms are in need of some overdue tlc. They are clean however the discoloured and mouldy grouting, cracked floor times and discoloured shower curtain are calling out for a much needed renovation. This has been the same in other bathrooms when I have stayed before. The rooms are great, the bathroom just takes the shine off an amazing visit.
Very comfy bed, amazing breakfast, super friendly and helpful staff and an early check in. Great facilities in the room, everything you could possibly need. Stayed before, great to be back and looking forward to staying again. Would recommend it to anyone.

United KingdomIt was a hot day, but it was sooo hot in the room even with 2 fans blowing. Not sure if a mattress topper was the cause but the bed was very warm… we had an uncomfortable night sleep. Couldn’t open curtains early morning to let breeze from window as sun blairing through. That said if weather wasn’t as hot it would have probably have been fine. Room could do with a coat of paint..
The building is nice. Hotel situated inside the Bistrot. Good location for all shops bars etc… The room was small. But that said it was fine for 1 night. Room rate good including breakfast Bathroom fine, nice shower… with complimentary shower gels. Towels clean and fluffy. Plenty of tea coffee etc in room and a couple of complimentary waters. Breakfast good, with a choice off the menu. Bedding clean, good quality.
