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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 KingdomHousekeeping very poor: beds barely remade with duvet skewed half off and pillows still dented, cushions on the floor, water glasses not changed and toilet seemingly not cleaned. Sash windows left open and proved nearly impossible to close, needed to drag furniture around to stand on a chair, still could barely reach and took all our strength to push up - a window pole would have helped. Absent bedisde light with screwholes in wall. Full English Breakfast on 2nd morning served with pink uncooked sausages and miniscule poached eggs - size of small marshmallows!

United KingdomThe lock on room 14 was very stiff, but pointed this out to staff so hopefully they will sort for next guests. Rooms were not very soundproof, but it’s a very old building so I suppose this is to be expected.
Beautifully decorated room with view over the square. Super comfortable bed and pillows. Was very warm but fan supplied helped keep cool. Breakfast included which was super tasty! Location just perfect just a short stroll to restaurant and walking around Royal William Yard in the evening and morning was stunning. Staff in restaurant were all so friendly and welcoming. Water in the fridge was a nice extra.

United KingdomIt’s not that is don’t like the stairs but if you can do stairs you need to say. What would have been really lovely is if there was some information about the yard and the hotel in the room to read. These are 100% not things that would put me off
The location to start was amazing, the hotel was beautiful. The restaurant and staff fabulous.

United KingdomStaff weren’t helpful regarding parking - we were told it was free from 12pm so paid for parking until 12pm, only to be told we had to go back to put a new pass in the car window which didn’t align with our plans. Ended up forking out extra money for parking for the trip.
Clean, comfortable & brilliant breakfast.

United Kingdomcan't think of anything except we noticed carpet getting a bit worn and light stains in places but didn't bother us for the price at all.
location was fantastic and bonus weather was lovely so enjoyed watching a lovely sunset over the old naval harbour. Ellie was lovely and friendly at breakfast time and check in. The breakfast was delicious and at such a good price too all included in the stay. To have stayed in an old historic naval officers house turned into rooms was lovely and unusual will defiantly return when next in area. appreciated free car park permit too as otherwise that would have got expensive
