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 KingdomChecked in no problem, parking is at a car park less than 3 minutes walk from the Swan. Some stairs to walk up, a member of staff kindly helped me with my bag. Room had a double bed, room a little small but no problem. I didn't eat in the restaurant but I did look at the menu, it's a seasonal menu so changes with the seasons. Breakfast: excellent, a buffet for cereals and continental and a well served and tasty choice of English dishes. The bar has a good stock of British and foreign beers plus wine and spirits, service was very good. Arundel is a very quiet town after closing time, I always sleep with the window open and had a peaceful night with only council staff reversing nearby. I add this comment because I do not normally sleep well on the first night in a new location. Lots of bars and restaurants nearby, I wish I had time to visit them. I'll stay there again.

AustraliaStairs can be a bit of a problem if you have heavy suitcases but understandable when you stay in a heritage building.
Great stay if you want a traditional pub experience. Very nice room, comfortable bed. The town of Arundel is full of character and history, the Swan Hotel is an excellent choice, good breakfast and dinner was very nice as well.

United KingdomNothing to complain about at all.
We loved the whole feeling of this lovely pub. Right from from the start, We were made very welcome by Harry on reception and behind the bar. We were very happy with our delicious evening meal too. We were actually upgraded to a superior double which we were very pleased about! The room and bed was super comfy and the bedding was beautiful. Everything was spotlessly clean. We had everything we wanted. At breakfast, the head housekeeper Yvonne was lovely and nothing was too much trouble. Our cooked breakfast was amazing! This is our 2nd stay here, and we'll definitely be back! Arundel town and the wonderful castle is lovely and all the locals are very friendly. We really enjoyed everything. Thankyou guys 😃
