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...).

CyprusSome mold on the bathroom walls and the bed wasnt really comfy as i checked it was little broken on my side ;) bad luck to me. Too much noise till midnight because its a restaurant /bar downstair but overall we are really happy for that night. Thank you!
What a nice village. One of the most beautiful villages in Scotland. The hotel is an old one but this is what you are going for i guess. To enjoy the medieval atmosfere and the surroumdings. Dinner was nice and breakfast too. Thank you!

United States of AmericaYou could hear the bar music through the floor.
Property was in a great location in a cute little city. Right on the main road with a very nice outside patio bar. The restaurant was cozy and the food was ok. My Scottish breakfast was great, but my wife’s pancakes were overdone. The room we had was noisy as it sat above the bar and one of the workers was blowing the front patio with a leaf blower 7 AM in the morning. For the money, it was just OK.

United KingdomThere was nothing that I didn’t like about the hotel. It was brilliant in every way.
The hotel was excellent and exceeded our expectations. A gorgeous room and very friendly staff. The food was superb also. The location was brilliant and right in the heart of the village. We stayed in the Queens room which also included a roll top slipper bath in the room which I loved. Sky tv with full package of sports and movies as a great additional touch. The bar in the hotel is a lovely small friendly bar and the separate restaurant was also brilliant. I know I have said the word brilliant a lot but this is the word to sum up this hotel.

AustraliaFalkland is a lovely little place. Nice to walk around in and lovely people. And I'd definitely recommend The Covenanter. It's Just a shame that The Covenanter was the only evening meal option/ bar open on the Friday night we stayed in Falkland
The room was clean and had a view of the main street/Palace. The bed was very comfortable and the room had a good hot shower. The restaurant was good. We had a lovely dinner, excellent wine and a great Scottish breakfast the next morning. And the bar was a nice place to spend the evening too.

United KingdomWe stayed in one of the 2 new rooms which aren't in the main entrance of the hotel. The door that leads to the 2 rooms which is on the street and has outside tables for people drinking outside beside it isn't locked and myself and my fiancée would just have felt a bit more safer if there was a lock to that door.
Fantastic stay. Room was lovely, staff went above and beyond and the food in the restaurant was excellent. Will definitely stay yearly as we got engaged in The Covenater. There was a problem with the heating/hot water on arrival but the staff couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating and the problem was fixed ASAP. We had dinner in the restaurant and the lasagne was the best I have had anywhere. When staff found out we had gotten engaged they laid on prosseco and congratulated us. Couldn't have asked for a better weekend. Beautiful hotel in a beautiful location.

United KingdomThe sound from the bar music almost made the room vibrate although i was there on a Friday and Saturday night and it stops at a decent time. The heating needs to come on earlier. In general though its a great little hotel.

United States of AmericaIt was a little pricey, and the decor slightly dated. The guest before me left the language on the TV on German, and I could not for the life of me figure out how to fix it...but I STILL loved every minute!
I stayed in the Queen Suite with THE most delicious tub, smack dab in the middle of the room. The bed was comfy. As an Outlander fan, it was a great place to stay! The staff was lovely, and the Scottish Breakfast was fantastic! Had dinner in the bar, and everyone was so fun!
