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 KingdomMy only criticism is the shower pressure was poor when it was first turned on. It came ok after turning it on and off a few times.
The whole feel of the hotel was welcoming and the staff were very friendly. The location was excellent as so close to the train station. I was worried about noise levels because the train station was so close but couldn’t hear any outside noise when in the room. Breakfast was excellent also. Next time we might try dinner in the hotel. A bonus was it was raining the next day and you could rent umbrellas at the hotel. Would definitely stay again.

ItalyBreakfast is excellent, but it is à la carte. That means that, except for very few items available from a very small buffet section, one needs to wait a relatively long time to eat, which is not always ideal especially for people on work trips. I would recommend having a larger buffet with at least eggs and bacon in it – although the dishes freshly made by the chef are obviously superior. Staff are very eager to help but sometimes there is an impression that especially the younger associates don't have much experience waiting tables or dealing with international customers and their needs. I suspect more serious, cohesive training is needed, and probably it would be helpful to staff's professional growth, as well. One fully negative note is that I was not informed that, at the time of my stay, the hotel would be completely surrounded by a building site making it impossible to access the one pedestrian entrance from the street, which was particularly inconvenient while carrying a suitcase under the rain. This will be sorted eventually but more care should have gone into preparing customers and potentially creating an easier path into the hotel.
Location is great (considering it is still Coventry...) 1 minute away from the train station. For people going to the University of Warwick, the direct bus (12x) is 5 minutes away, and plenty of taxis/uber rides are also quickly available in the area; in both cases it takes 12-15 minutes to reach the university. Rooms are new and spacious, although this reviewer doesn't quite appreciate (or understand, really) the choice of not having a real wardrobe but rather a short open rod and no drawers. The gym is well equipped and clean. Staff are very kind and helpful. The restaurant is very good, both for breakfast and the other meals.
