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.).

SwitzerlandThe hotel could do with a bit of renovation
At first we were given a room with a view directly onto the car park and a van sitting right outside our window. We asked for a room with a better view and were given one, on the 1st floor, without any problems. The staff were friendly and helpful. Dinner and breakfast were good.

United Kingdomi can honestly say there was not a single disagreeable moment in my stay, centre of town yet quiet cosy lounge with a view over the river loved every thing about this hotel.
the staff although many of them were very young far exceeded my expectations of friendliness, professionalism and were very helpful with sharing local knowledge of the area to improve our overall stay, places to visit what's on and where to eat outside of the hotel, not that we really needed to as the dining was lovely with many locals using the restaurant every day testament to how popular the food is. breakfast is hearty with plenty selection and from fresh local produce. would certainly recommend.

The room was comfortable and being able to walk around Wick, was good. We were very impressed and highly recommend that people check out the Wick heritage museum.

United KingdomWe felt that some areas of the room were slightly tired. There was a broken wardrobe and for our tastes felt the room could do with some updating.
The hotel was clean and comfortable with a good menu selection in the restaurant. There was lots of offering for breakfast both hot and cold. We slept very well during our stay.

Nice hotel, cozy feel with the old-feel decor (in a good way) and the plush carpets. Breakfast was a really nice buffet and a member of the public even came in to buy breakfast. Room was really nice and spacious.

United KingdomThe room was a little hot and the window did not open. My meal on Saturday night had been cooked in advance and reheated, hence the Chicken Balmoral was dried out and my vegetables were overcooked.

United KingdomWe didn't see the other room so not sure if they are all the same. But do feel that the room is a bit small for 2 persons and a furbaby.
1) we like the staff serving breakfast. We went for breakfast at 0930hr not realising it was passed the breakfast. But the staff was so helpful. They set up a spot for us and made sure that we got breakfast. They were patient, friendly and made us feel attended to. 2) though we have to pay for our dog to stay over but it was nice to come to the room, seeing that there was treats, blanket, towel and a bowl for him.
