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 KingdomVery thin walls. And creaky Hall floorboards so all guests' movement and conversation was audible. Not sure 'Grand' is the right adjective to use

United KingdomWe stayed at The Grand on Sunday for the Level 42 show. Actually, the hotel itself was easy enough to find, but the car park was a bit of a nightmare—you had to wait about 10 minutes because people were queuing up and getting confused about where to go. Inside, check-in wasn’t super clear either, but the room was nice and tidy. Breakfast was hit or miss—great continental options but a disappointing English breakfast. The staff were really kind at dinner, but you weren’t thrilled about the 12% service charge for the meal.
It was very close to where we wanted to be

United KingdomMore options for vegetarians, there were no veg sausages or mushrooms. Fruit juice was unpleasant.
Twin rooms instead of doubles is great when sharing with a friend. Brilliant location. Clean, quiet enough. Good breakfast, lovely hash browns, tomatoes, egg, Cereal, fruit yoghurt. Hassle free booking and check in.

United Kingdom- the shower facilities were poor. Little to no pressure for the shower head. - mattress felt very old, you could feel the springs digging in. - the speakers on the TV had gone, had to listen to it very quietly to avoid the crackles. - although a car park was recommended, and we paid the hotel to stay there, the shutters would not work. This happened for nearly everyone trying to to exit! - smell of cannabis throughout the corridor where our room was situated.
The location of this hotel was perfect. There was a nearby car park the staff recommended for us to use.
