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 StatesFrom a very personal point of view I would have liked access to a small fridge for my medication. I was advised that this was available for the deluxe rooms but perhaps this is something I should have enquired about when booking.
The general atmosphere and the staffs pleasant and polite attitude gave a very relaxed background to our stay. The surrounding grounds and gardens were in excellent order and the close view of the river provided a very memorable experience.

United StatesNo a/c when the weather was very hot. An unfortunate exchange Ruth one of the people at reception, who needs to be taught how to deal more charmingly with customer complaints.
Fantastic location on the river at the finish line of the rowing. Beautiful grounds, a lovely room. Like a secret Eden of the bygone British Empire.

United KingdomThe dress code was not made clear to us beforehand, nor that the restaurant was closed on Sunday nights - not that we had the proper attire to eat there anyway! The bath was also very high in room 8, not easy to get in/out of and the shower was a mixer tap that gave you either lukewarm, boiling hot or freezing cold water - within a millimetre turn of the taps. Some bottled water in the room would have been nice too, especially as everything was all closed up wihen we returned at about 10.30 on Sunday night.
Spectacular location overlooking the river, just a short walk into the main town centre. The place is beautiful, nicely decorated and the staff were lovely - very friendly and welcoming and full of helpful tips and advice on where to eat in town.

United KingdomThe older members of the croquet club seemed unhappy that the hotel was being advertised to non member guests which was not pleasant hearing them on the terrace making reference to this.
the location by the river and the surroundings were so picturesque. The building itself was lovely and our room was very spacious. Having a pool on site was a plus.

The location by the Thames is to die for. There is a spectacular view from the rooms that overlook the river. Everyone was very welcoming and kind. The room was spacious and comfortable in an old-fashioned style. Excellent food. This is a quiet place, good for walking, sightseeing and relaxing.

United Kingdomthe view over flat roof could have been improved - either made into terrace or a living roof. Beyond that the view of the river was fantastic but felt the roofing could have been made to blend in., but the fridge was a bit noisy. The curtains are heavy and could do with a pulley
Breakfast was great and very accommodating as were arrived as they were clearing up. The room was very comfortable and beds comfortable the staff accommodating. and the interior decor fabulous and well looked after

United KingdomWhilst appreciating that the venue is a member's club, we had mixed messages about bringing some family on site as our guests for a coffee. Having been told that we could do so when enquiring by phone prior to arrival, we were informed that only full members could sign-in guests when we double-checked during our stay.
Excellent location in own grounds by the river, with easy walking access to Henley town and riverside. Staff welcoming and efficient. Food was delicious - both breakfast and the evening meal.
