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 KingdomFood at dinner was average. I had mac and cheese and it was just macaroni with grated cheese on top, not even melted.
Breakfast was nice and had a nice view. The location is great for an out of city weekend away.

United KingdomNothing apart from some minor problems making contact with the hotel immediately prior to our stay as we had a couple of questions.
A great location right on the canal. Ideal if cycling the canal route and very accommodating about storing bikes overnight. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food for both dinner and breakfast was very good. The weather was fine so it was great to enjoy a cold drink sitting outside on the terrace overlooking the marina.

United KingdomIt was hard to find a sensible socket for the kettle. The breakfast options were unusual - no porridge/juice/cereal/toast. However, the full Scottish was delicious.
Lovely location, and close to the John Muir Way. Friendly, helpful staff. There was some confusion about payment for breakfast but it was quickly sorted without any issues. Good shower.

United KingdomThe wi-fi was unuseable. For me that's a deal breaker.
The staff were excellent - friendly and helpful. The meal in the restaurant was acceptable. The room was comfortable and it had a great radiator which made things really toasty. The location by the marina is nice though the building needs a new coat of paint and removing the rusty shipping container out back would improve the ambience.

United KingdomThe WiFi was a bit unreliable and you had to reconnect each day which took several minutes. Breakfast was not included but could be bought in the restaurant, it would have been good to have a simple option of just porridge/cereal and toast.

United KingdomOnly slight negative was the loose toilet set in the bedroom. Also the shower partition kept swinging out, might want to do some minor maintenance in the Montrose room. USB points would be a nice extra.
Really nice stay, staff were friendly and the food was was good, plenty of vegetarian options. The vegetarian breakfast was really nice, all good value for money.
