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 KingdomBedroom and bathroom would probably welcome some modernising
Love the old fashioned family run feel of the place, very charming reception and bar. Lovely outside area on a sunny day. Large room, just what we needed and part of the charm. Excellent breakfast. Ideal location to walk into York, parking spaces available. Good value for money, we would stay again and recommend to friends

BrazilA little far from the old town, about a 10-15 minutes walk, but not necessarily a bad thing, since it's a more quiet neighbourhood.
Breakfast was really good, staff was very friendly. Beautiful ambience, very cozy. Bedroom was big and beds comfortable.

United KingdomThe only thing that was a pain was trying to get it the room with the wheelchair due to the positioning of the door and stairs. But really, that was more to do with the size of the wheelchair than the hotels fault. It is a really big bulky wheelchair.
I was travelling with my daughter who is a wheelchair user and has a portable hoist. When I arrived later than was expected, I was delighted to see a member of staff come and help me with all my luggage. My room was on the ground floor to accommodate the wheelchair and was a lovely spacious room. The beds had been positioned in a way I'd said earlier that would make my stay easier.

United KingdomOne slight was at breakfast. We were kept waiting a considerable time. Other guest's were coming in after us, and then getting looked after before us. I thought I had done something to upset someone.
We stay at Wheatlands lodge all the time. It's a lovely place. Quality rooms. Lovely staff, and on top of that a great breakfast.

United KingdomNothing I can think of.
The whole experience - food, staff, cleanliness etc. - at Wheatlands Lodge was excellent, very enjoyable. I couldn’t fault any aspect. I was very lucky though that I could park my car for my whole three day stay in the road immediately outside the hotel entrance - I could understand previous reviews commenting on their parking difficulties! A very well looked after hotel (and front garden!), and very convenient for access (for two 80+ year olds) to the town centre.
