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 air conditioning/Heating Our first night the room was very cold, we had tried to figure out which setting was heated. We did ask at the desk and they said they can set the heating via a control panel at the desk. But it still failed. To then flashing with a spanner. So just layered up for the two nights.
The staff are very friendly, the hotel was very clean very easy to find from Watford Junction Station. We had breakfast for the two days were here. Cooked and continental served all very nice for the both days. The location of the Hotel for thoes that are going to Harry Potter studio London the bus is 3min walk and runs every 15 mins which can be found at Watford Junction Station as you come out. Their are security guards their that ask to see your tickets.

United KingdomThe bathroom was the only problem we had, and it was a design issue - nothing at all to do with the staff on duty. I felt that the door opened the wrong way into the room, so you had to go round it to enter. There appeared not to be any heating in the bathroom, and the floor was very cold. Also, there wasn't a heated towel rail to dry the towels or bath mat, which is so unusual in a quality hotel.
The staff couldn't do enough to help and were both professional and friendly - and this applied to every staff member we met. The restaurant service was excellent, and the food at dinner and breakfast was really lovely. The beds were comfortable, and the room was clean and beautifully presented.

United KingdomWhen I checked in, the lady at the desk assured me I’d have a late 2pm check out. At 11am I was contacted by another receptionist and told I had to leave immediately. When I explained that a late check out had been confirmed at check in, I was told I wasn’t ‘eligible’ and had to leave at 1pm the latest.
Very clean and well kept hotel. Has a 24 hour Starbucks, and accessible car park.
