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.).

We recently had the pleasure of staying at The Brownswood Hotel, conveniently located near Clissold Park in the charming area of Hackney. This hotel proved to be a superb choice, particularly as we were attending a wedding party at nearby Clissold House. The guest rooms at The Brownswood are well-appointed, offering a blend of comfort and style that made our stay exceptionally pleasant. Each room is meticulously designed to ensure that guests feel both pampered and at home. One of the highlights of our stay was the hotel’s friendly pub. It boasts an excellent selection of food and drink, making it a perfect spot for dining alfresco, especially since the weather was cooperative during our visit. The quality of the meals was outstanding, with a menu that catered to a variety of tastes and preferences. Breakfast at The Brownswood was another delightful experience. Served with high-quality ingredients including fresh sourdough bread, proper butter, a variety of fruits, cereals, ham, cheese, and yogurts, it was the ideal start to our day. The attention to detail and quality was evident in every dish served. The staff at The Brownswood deserves a special mention. From the warm welcome by Alex upon our arrival to the exceptional service provided by the lovely woman who served our breakfast each morning, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable. Their friendliness and readiness to assist with any request made our experience even more special. Additionally, the hotel's location is extremely convenient. With a bus stop just outside, we were only four stops away from Finsbury Park Station, providing easy access to explore the city further. Overall, The Brownswood Hotel is a gem in Hackney, combining excellent amenities with first-rate service and a prime location. It's an ideal choice for anyone looking for a comfortable, enjoyable stay in

United KingdomVery minor quibble, the WiFi was on the slow side (c. 15 Mbps) which meant that there was occasional buffering when watching catch-up TV. Room not cheap, but not unreasonable for but actually not unreasonable for London, particularly given its location, with bus-stops just outside. (But NB no onsite parking).
Loved the staff; continental breakfast was excellent (particularly the fresh fruit salad). Very nice comfortable room, with catch-up shops available on TV
