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...).

We booked the maidens tower for our anniversary and from arrival to leaving I cannot fault anything. The staff are amazing and made us feel welcome. The room was beautiful and the views amazing. We booked the castle view restaurant for an evening meal, which was superb. I would definitely book again!! Thank you to all at Leeds Castle 🏰

United KingdomThe shower curtain could be set a little wider in the bath. You do have to walk back for breakfeast and to get back to the car so keep that in mind if you have any issues with walking or carry cases. i belive they do also have limited mobility friendly rooms
The setting is just amazing, front window facing leeds castle, literally 10 metres from teh front door. window seat to look out at the castle. Staff were friendly. breakfast was nice, room was huge and really well done. bathroom was lovely. entrance to the castle and ground included in your stay. The building itself is really cool, old staircase, beautiful stone work etc. A really great experience

It was lovely, well cooked, good variety and great surrounding. Some of the staff could have been a bit happier and more engaging

United KingdomIf you want facilities such as a bar, communal spaces, it is a long way to the restaurant which hosts the only dining facilities and bar. The noise from the venue setup below us started fairly early on the Saturday morning
Beautiful location within the moated area of the castle. Great views and a good size. Tastefully decorated and 'dressed'. It was a pleasant stroll from the restaurant back to the room on a warm and sunny evening

United KingdomThe only issue was the weather was really bad and the maiden tower is abit of a walk to the restaurant, were as the stable rooms are right next to it.
The maiden tower is beautiful, right next to the castle. We stayed at the Catherine, which was a very large room with a great bathroom, huge bath tub. The heating was great and the view of the castle was perfect. The 3 course dinner was amazing, definitely worth booking.

United KingdomA five minute walk to restaurant and car park. Not a problem if fine, but not attractive in wet weather. Umbrellas advised ! Very busy with paying visitors during the day (half term).
Well appointed, quiet. Helpful staff. Excellent well maintained gardens. Admission to the castle was a bonus, but would have been even better if available out of normal opening hours.
