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 KingdomNo evening meal sir? But as noted above this worked out OK although a little strange after many decades booking into hotels to be told there was no evening meal available…to me!
Superb location overlooking the estuary, although my small room was out the back. Unfortunately the hotel was only catering for the coach parties for the evening meal so had to go out for food…all worked out in that regard. Breakfast was arranged and was very good…served to your table. Room was small but adequate as I was travelling alone. A hotel that has been around for many a year but clean, welcoming and suited my needs.

United KingdomThe food was a bit like you’d expect in a care home - a bit bland, not a huge amount and not much choice.
Location was really good. Would have preferred a lamppost in the car park for security reasons, as we felt the car park was very dark at night. On departure we couldn’t leave the car park, in our car, until two of the three coaches had moved out at 9.30am, as we were hemmed in. Our room was over warm - too warm for us, so we opened all three top windows and turned off our radiator in our room overnight. We felt our dinner at £18 a person was a little expensive for what we received. Meal sizes a little on the small side. Meal choices a bit restricted. Breakfast was ok. The fruit juices seemed watered down, and there was no black pudding or potato scone in the full British breakfast. On the plus - Staff were all very pleasant and cheerful and our room (no.211) was clean and comfortable. Service from the staff was pleasant and efficient. So an ok stay. Would we stay again? Probably not. This hotel seems to cater better for coach parties and people of a certain age. We’ve stayed at other 3* hotels in Dunoon, and would be likely to go back to them in the future, rather than the Selborne, sorry.

United KingdomWent for a night for cowal games , our room was situated next to a ping pong table and the dining room , we had no view and our window had frosted glass . Cost us 114 pounds for 1 night there , would we go back ? Not so sure . Overall I rate it as a 6/10
The breakfast was very good even though we didn't get cutlery to eat with , the garden out back was looking over the sea which was a bonus as it was a nice day and we could take a walk along the shore into dunoon harbour . Overall it wasn't the worst experience but I believe for that amount of money we could have gotten better for our money

United KingdomIf I had to say I didn't like something it would probably be being allocated a time of when you can eat breakfast . I can understand why this is needed and isn't really a big thing.
The views from the front of the hotel were beautiful. Ideally situated for where we needed to be. The staff were lovely.
