Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

IrelandThe breakfast was never warm and when we had a buffet style breakfast, t was cold and the plates were cold. The room was also cold.
Our stay was fabulous. We loved the building, surroundings and our beds were very comfortable

United KingdomPatchy wifi and a TV signal that disappeared from time to time. The courtyard was full of weeds and in general need of attention. Looked rather like faded grandeur. No bedside light so reading in bed was very difficult - a serious omission.
Very attractive building set in nice grounds. There is plenty of parking and a well-converted stables room. Bath as well as shower and hot water on tap. Warm room.

United KingdomAlthough this is a lovely old building a little TLC is needed in parts to really bring it up to speed. Nothing that a coat of paint and the re hanging of curtains wouldn’t solve.
The size of the was exceptional. With a huge and comfortable bed. Although the room could get chilly I guess due to the sheer size and high ceilings, we did ask for heater and wer given a fan heater which was sufficient.

United KingdomNo real problems, given the structure of the building.
Old fashioned, but nice. Lots of stairs to room. Quite hard to find the hotel at night - an extra sign to confirm the first one would be nice, as that one is some way from the entrance.

United KingdomMost if the staff are friendly and helpful, but don't leave anything in your room you don't want to be moved around and touched be the staff. I left a wedding shawl drying on blocking mats and came back to my room to find it had been moved against a radiator that had been turned up high, luckily I came back to bring my daughters wedding dress to my room so managed to save it from being scorched and ruined. That could have spoiled my daughters wedding that was happening at the hotel. I kept all staff out of my room for the next 2 days as I was worried about the wedding dress too.
The hotel is an architectural masterpiece in beautiful grounds.

United KingdomA few things were a little tired, but they didn't detract from our stay.
Fantastic big room with views over the garden. Nice calm decor and everything you need for a short stay away from home. Was clean and comfortable, with a big bathroom. There were extra pillows and the room temp was perfect. We loved the vibe of the place, particularly the entrance hall and staircase.

United KingdomCleanliness wasn't brilliant. Dining tables were 'sticky'. Bath had been damaged, as had the wash hand basin. The bathroom lights did not work properly, which could/should have been noticed by housekeeping unless they relied on daylight from the windows. One window had been damaged, clearly a significant time ago, and boarded up instead of being repaired.
Hotel was conveniently situated and generally quiet. Food in the restaurant was OK but not exciting. Menu was quite limited.

IrelandDeep Potholes in the driveway as you enter from the road and also in the entrance to the carpark. We booked a twin room, were given a double and had to be moved so one of us had a sofa bed. Asked for a discount but never received it. Got asked over dinner "how is your food" at least 5 times during our meal so didn't eat in the restaurant again in the evening.
The house, rooms and gardens are beautiful. Pleasant staff.

United KingdomThe only thing is the bed, it is so uncomfortable, we both woke up with sore backs, and felt like we had very little sleep.
The location and presentation is very good, the room is very pleasant and looks really nice but the bed as to be the most uncomfortable I have slept in in my 62 years. I was talking to my wife about how uncomfortable the bed is and a Irish chap that was leaving at the same time made the same comment, lovely place terrible bed. My wife and I had a terrible night's sleep. My wife and I travel a lot around the UK, weekend stays at least twice a month every month and have for years and that bed is the worse ever. It would stand you well for one of your staff to spend the night to experience it, then you will understand my review.

United KingdomIt needs tlc which is a shame.
At £55 a night I didn’t expect much but the hotel doesn’t reflect the photos. The room was warm clean and comfortable but in need of some tlc. The hotel has been on generator for at least 3 months but the noise didn’t bother us. We were not asked if we wanted to book breakfast or dinner but used the bar which is expensive. The hotel is a 10 minute walk from an Harvester. If I’d paid more I would be upset but all in all it is value and once would have been amazing. We stayed in the Stable block.

United KingdomNeeds some TLC. Water damage in most ceilings, frayed curtains, just generally looking tired and in need of an upgrade. The bathroom was very basic and the large space could be better utilised. The hotel felt quite empty. They could offer so much more, like incorporate activities in the grounds for guests to engage in, maybe archery and other sports, a gym etc.
