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.).

The hotel was in prime position in the centre of Thirsk. We were there for the races and it's only a ten minute walk away from the course. Parking at the hotel was free and ideal if a bit tight driving in. Mr Dixon was very helpful with telling us about the best places to eat. The room exceeded our expectations it was huge and although a tad dated it was nicely decorated with nice furnishings and a huge bed. The cooked breakfast was very good with cereal, toast, juices and fruit to start. Overall a lovely hotel and we would happily return.

United StatesThe bathroom didn’t smell good, though it had been cleaned. The arrangement for using the shower was so tricky that one of us did a sponge bath instead of showering, and the other had to rinse off in cold water when the hot water stopped.
We checked in easily with owner Geoff. Our room was on the top floor. The steps were not a problem for us, but some travelers may want to avoid places with no lift. The location was excellent—a few doors from The World of Herriot and steps from the market square of Thirsk. Breakfast, included in the price of the room, included cereal, granola, toast, fruit, juice, coffee, tea, and for those who want it. A fully cooked breakfast of egg, sausage, ham, beans, and tomato.

United KingdomI couldn’t find anywhere that listed the wifi password and it’s a very early checkout without an option to pay for a later checkout.
Beautiful spacious rooms. Old world English charm. Fantastic location, really central. We had a street view room which overlooked thirsk and the area. It was beautifully light and airy. My partner said the breakfast was lovely too.

FranceWith only half an hour for the availability of breakfast and having to be out by 10, it was a bit of a rush in the morning.
It had a lot of character and was warm and comfortable as well. It felt like a family home. The host was very friendly and interesting and kindly allowed us to leave our luggage during the day.
