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...).

United KingdomOnly down side was we booked for a meal on the Sunday (Easter Sunday) and when we got there there was very little left on the menu. Luckily what we did choose was delicious so that made up for it.
All the food was delicious and we were very impressed. The room was large and comfortable. I loved the decor in the restaurant.

Large room, comfy bed, good shower, good parking, bar and restaurant food drink ok, and nicely presented, not a cheap pub!! service good all round

United KingdomSounds of running water when rooms above ran taps or flushed toilets was my only concern, maybe a bit more insulation in the roof space above bed where I assume plumbing is? would quieten this down a lot.
Breakfast was fantastic value for money. Room was clean and comfortable. The staff were a pleasure to deal with and made us all feel very welcome and gave the children chocolate easter bunnies which was a lovely surprise. The restaurant meals were lovely and ample in portions size and very well priced. It has been a few years since we last stayed here and was a pleasure to stay here again, can’t remember why we stopped staying here when we visit Harrogate which is quite frequent Would stay again in a heart beat thank you all for great service.

United KingdomUnfortunately our room was very cold. It’s an old building and you can feel the cold from the windows, particularly the bathroom. The duvet was also very thin, with no extra blankets that we could see. The skirtings really let the room down. They were painted in a dark colour, but the paint had come off in lots of areas, making the nice room look shabby.
Great Staff and lovely food in the restaurant. Loved the decor downstairs.

United KingdomTravelled 5.5 hours from Dundee to collect a car from Leeds, our trade-in broke down, and then we travelled to The Pine Marten to check in for an overnight stay. We booked a family room, 2 adults and 2 children. The hotel was clean, the interior was beautiful, and the food smelt great, a bit on the pricey side. We all sat at the bar and ordered cocktails (adults) from Kalumm. My husband ordered a 007 vespa, and I ordered an expresso martini. Kalumm made the best vespa that my husband has ever tasted, and my expresso martini was amazing. We would book this hotel again and order cocktails from Kalumm.

United KingdomThe walls are thin and the room next door did wake me up coming in and snoring.
The building is a stunning, I am surprised that it doesn’t have a blue plaque as the person who lived there built the biggest telescope. The decor is modern but they utilise the 1800 building. The staff are lovely the breakfast was delicious and great location. Beds are comfy rooms are warm.
