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 KingdomThe garden had awful plastic plants which seemed at odds with the effort put in with the decor, and the small pond seemed very neglected. The bedroom tap only ran to lukewarm water, it didnt get cold, the hotel did apologise for that and were going to look into the cause. It felt a bit pricey for the size of the room (a family room with a fold down sofa bed) with no breakfast included.
Superb welcome and continued service from the main host who was so kind so our young children. Lovely decor throughout the hotel and a great restaurant both for dinner and breakfast.

United KingdomWe had a great time and hope to visit again as soon as we can.
The manager ensured that we felt comfortable, warm and welcome from our first steps into the Pine Martin. Kind, proficient, and efficient service characterised our stay. Our room (family of four) was spotlessly clean and spacious. We had dinner in the pub and everyone loved their meal. I would like to specifically thank the manager for his kindness and the staff for an excellent experience!

United KingdomInterior is looking tired. Chair seat cushions in the dining room were stained. The carpet in our room looked liked it needed cleaning. The fish pond in the garden looked a mess instead of being an attractive feature.
Excellent receptionist when we arrived and friendly staff. Great location to visit RHS Harlow Carr. Good free parking. Comfortable bed. Looks impressive from outside. Good bathroom, but the silicone around the bottom on the shower enclosure had patches of black mould.

United KingdomBreakfast, we had breakfast included with the room, in which case there seemed to be a choice of either a cooked breakfast menu or a cereal menu. I would have liked cereals as part of my breakfast, but as the choice was very limited I didn't bother to find out if my understanding was correct.
Dinner was very good, great food reasonable prices. Staff were very friendly and very helpful. Plenty of car parking.
