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 KingdomNot their fault (and nit picking because it's so nice) but no lift so we had to walk up two flights of stairs, no issue for us but elderly/disabled guests may struggle. Breakfast the toast was a bit burned, but the rest of it was really nice.
Well decorated and clean room. Quite expensive but you get what you pay for and this was a lovely central london room with breakfast. I was happy to pay for the luxury. Staff were absolutely lovely. The water pressure was excellent, and i actually had a relaxing bath too.

Room and bathroom were lovely, clean and comfortable and only a 15 minute walk away to where I needed to be. The equipment available (tea and coffee making, ironing, safe, fridge) was actually more than I needed but appreciated. Despite being above a pub, noise was not an issue and I slept really well.

United StatesRoom 8 shares a wall with the kitchen, and it can be a little loud later at night when they're cleaning. There is some street noise on the first floor, but to be expected anywhere in London on a low floor. Beware there are no elevators/lifts and if you're on the 2nd or third floor it's pretty tight and steep. Definitely don't recommend bringing a large, heavy suitcase because of this.
Amazing large room and the staff in the pub was simply outstanding. Made us feel like the C & W was our "local" from the moment we walked in. Delightful breakfast menu and coffees provided every morning. Great selection of beers, though they were out of a few while we were there.

United KingdomBreakfast. Too contemporary. Also sausage was cooked inside but skins were raw and therefore too chewy. Bacon deep fried and no option for egg to be cooked ( poached rare only 🙄) Finally everything pilled up on a dry piece o’sour dough piece of toast which is also not an an option and without butter!
Friendliest and bed comfort
