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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

- • Family with young children
- • Family Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
We liked everything about it.
Bright Velo is located in the heart of Bright where cafes and river are just a short walk away and the bike track is right next door. You would think that it would be noisy, but it really wasn't. We didn't hear a thing from any other guests or people in Bright for the entire length of our stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the room (family room) was much bigger than we expected and the bike storage was easy and secure. We were surprised to find that that complimentary toiletries were of an unusually high standard. The staff are warm and welcoming and check in was too easy. From now on, this will be the place where we will stay when we are in Bright.

Shower pressure and temperature was a little touchy to regulate. TV was not a smart TV as specified in the booklet. I didn't realize the restaurant down stairs wasn't operating. Could have done with a sliding door in the vanity room and i expected the kitchen dining area to be larger.
Separate toilet and shower. 2 separate bedrooms. Heaters in both bedrooms and kitchen area and it was clean. Plenty of kitchen appliances utensils and kitchenware available. The location was ideal. WiFi available.

The bathroom was not ventilated. The smell from the steam of the shower as well as the use of the toilet overpowered the rooms. If the Bathroom had a door to keep these smells in that would have been good. I had to go and get some Glen 20 to make it ok. The shower is not a shower but a hand spray for a pull out sink mixer!! I work at Reece and could have gotten you showers that worked as actual showers much better. On top of that the pressure that that handpiece is putting on the shower hose means your hose is going to burst much faster.
The Beds were comfortable and the noise level for in town was quiet enough to sleep.
