Is a guide to spotting fake Tripadvisor hotel reviews really necessary?

By Frank Barrett

A team of researchers at America’s Cornell University last week claimed to have devised an almost foolproof way of identifying fake reviews on user review websites such as Tripadvisor.

Apparently the fake reviews contain a lot of gushing superlatives in the hotel descriptions. Who’d have guessed?

Ever since it was revealed that a property in Cornwall was offering guests a 10 per cent discount on future bookings in return for a rave Tripadvisor review there has been much wailing and gnashing of teeth about the value of sites such as Tripadvisor.

Wailer and gnasher-in-chief in the UK is Adam Raphael who, it has to be said, has something of an axe to grind as he runs The Good Hotel Guide.
