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 KingdomWe preferred the restaurant to the bar...the service was better the night we ate in the restaurant as it had been very busy the previous night when we ate in the bar. The bar wasn't very comfy just to sit and have a drink, and felt more like just somewhere to eat, so we had drinks in the lounge.
Excellent buffet breakfast. Lovely spacious room with a wonderfully comfortable bed. Dinner was very good, and the chips were amazing! The staff were friendly and attentive and overall the hotel feels more luxurious than the price suggests. We actually stayed for two nights and had an upgrade to a superior room in Rose cottage which was lovely.

United KingdomThe food at night wasn’t bad but it wasn’t great. £17 for a burger that wasn’t that big and the chips were a little undercooked. Just felt it was over priced. Pool was great but swimming lessons were on and a good chunk of the pool was closed for 1 child to have a lesson. It was also very busy and there was like 4 swim teachers there using up 2 tables. For 1 child haha
Breakfast was great as were the staff. All very friendly. Room was a decent size, balcony a really nice additional feature which was great.

United KingdomIt was very expensive for the room that was very dated and they had a Jacuzzi bath in there that was full of mould. The bathroom was very rundown. At nearly £300 a night, they need to sort that out the room is not at a higher standard and the windows didn’t even shut. I understand that it is an old building but for the money we paid and had awful nights sleep we all did and we paid for two rooms for the rest of our family, and that was a standard room, and it seemed to be better than the suit
Staff were amazing

United KingdomOnly there one night and didn’t eat in the bar
I posted a review for this hotel a few weeks ago. I gave it. 7 rating. The hotel called me to follow up on my review and I thought this was really good customer service. On my next visit they had what appeared to be upgraded me into one of the cottage rooms. I can’t fault this for taking feedback seriously hence the improved score of 9 this time. I’m staying again tonight for 3 nights so will review accordingly again

United KingdomNothing really, a wee bit cobwebs on the corner of the high ceiling above the large bedroom window and on the top of the curtains but fairly trivial. However, think it worth flagging as you may get a client (s) who would make a far bigger issue of it than we would so best to be forewarned
Room was very spacious , nice big bed and breakfasts were beautifully cooked fresh both mornings. All staff we encountered were pleasant, courteous and efficient.

United KingdomI thought the staff in the bar could've been friendlier and more engaging......they looked like they didn't want to be there. The TV in the room would be better positioned further along the wall to the middle of the room, instead of facing the sofa, as it wasn't practical to view from the bed. Also the heating in the room took some time to come on and warm the room - it would've been better if the heating had been put on in the room prior to arrival. The heating in the hallway of the cottage was too warm by contrast, so much so I turned the heater control down to bring it to a sensible temperature which worked.
I found the room excellent and loved the cottage set-up - very unusual. The food in the bar was very good, as was the breakfast in the morning. The value for money aspect was excellent.

United KingdomWe arrived 2.10 but check in wasn’t until 3 and we were made to wait. I was told room wasn’t ready but at 3 there were lots of people waiting to check in that were in the bar. I think there could have been flexibility even if they asked us to pay extra. I’m sure the rooms were ready but they stick to the 3 pm check in. I had 10 mins to get ready as I had to be somewhere for 3.45.
Nice quiet location. Convenient for visiting friends locally
