How StayScore works
One clearer way to compare hotels
StayScore helps travellers compare hotels using a single reputation score. Instead of checking several review platforms separately, you can quickly see how a hotel performs across multiple review signals.
What StayScore is
StayScore is a comparison tool designed to make hotel research easier. It brings together important reputation signals and turns them into a simple score out of 100.
What the score is based on
The score considers review-style signals such as Booking.com, Google and Tripadvisor ratings, alongside written summaries, guest highlights and common watchouts.
How the 100-point score works
StayScore converts different review ratings into one simple score out of 100. This makes it easier to compare hotels that may have different scores across different platforms.
Booking.com
/10
Converted into a percentage-style score.
Google Reviews
/5
Scaled up so it can be compared fairly.
Tripadvisor
/5
Included as another reputation signal.
The final StayScore is intended to be a helpful comparison signal, not a guarantee of quality. A higher score usually suggests stronger overall reputation, but travellers should still check recent reviews, prices, facilities and policies before booking.
What StayScore is not
StayScore is not a booking agent, travel agent or official hotel rating body. It does not replace checking the hotel directly before booking.
Always verify before booking
Hotel prices, facilities, policies and review scores can change. Always check the latest information directly with the hotel or booking provider before making a reservation.
Frequently asked questions
Is StayScore a booking site?
No. StayScore is a hotel comparison and research tool. It helps you compare reputation signals, but bookings should still be made directly with a hotel or trusted booking provider.
Does StayScore guarantee a hotel will be good?
No score can guarantee a perfect stay. StayScore is designed to be a helpful comparison signal, but travellers should still read recent reviews and check facilities, prices and policies before booking.
Why do hotels have different scores on different platforms?
Review platforms use different rating systems, user bases and review rules. StayScore helps simplify that by presenting one easier-to-compare score alongside the underlying review signals.
How often are scores updated?
At this stage, hotel information is managed manually. As StayScore develops, the aim is to refresh scores more regularly using reliable data sources and clear update processes.
