How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

It is a bit old, renovating can be considered. The extra charge for parking and quite and expensive breakfast makes it no bargain.
The breakfast has a wide variety to choose from. It is very quiet in the room itself, one can actually get some sleep. The 24 hour check-inn service.

Didn't try the spa, room was OK but probably due for a litt;le refurbishment. Breakfast was frankly poor. However the evening meal was small but sublime.

The minibar didn’t work, the bathroom smelled bad, like it needed a good thorough cleaning, no coffee or tea or watercooker of any sorts in the room. It all was a bit meh.
It was a good stay, the rooms were fine, I was rested and comfortable. Great for a travellers one night stay. Breakfast was also very good.

Paying for parking when there was a large car park with few cars in it. Paying for towels to use the sauna, and the fact that the sauna was not ready at 11am ( opening hour).
The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was good. I think the buffet dinner was good and decently priced, although not exceptional.

- • Family with young children
- • Family Room
- • Stayed 1 night
No children's meals and very limited veg options on the restaurant's dinner menu. Chicken nuggets and French fries are not a lot to ask for...
The is a fairly large family friendly hotel close to the A4 highway. It's opened in 1993 - most facilities are dated but are in good working order. We appreciated our spacey, comfortable and well-furnished suite composed of two bedrooms. Our kids appreciated having the extra space to themselves and so did we. The swimming pool (at room temperature) and sauna were nice extras. Excellent, rich breakfast buffet - highly recommended.

- • Family with young children
- • Family Room
- • Stayed 1 night
The room we were assigned to at first (202) smelled very strongly of cigarette smoke - whether that was because someone smoked in the room or because it was above the front entryway where smokers were congregating, I don't know; but the smell was so strong that we couldn't stay in it. The reception staff was very kind and apologetic and was able to quickly find a suitable alternative room for us.
Very easy access off of the A4 in a quiet business area; good for an overnight road trip stop. Breakfast was fantastic; my kids loved the pancake toppings. Reception and restaurant staff was very friendly and helpful.

it was quite clear that some guests were valued more than others particularly those who were part of coach parties. This meant certain amenities weren’t available to us for much of the time. However this is not the fault of the staff back of the hotel policy.
