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 KingdomBreakfast - in comparison to everything else was disappointing. Continental included but very basic - anything else chargeable and the bacon sandwich presented was poor. Such a shame as everything else was brilliant.
Boutique style. Comfortable seating areas Great snacks and dinner menu. Staff fantastic Will definitely tell friends about this little gem and go back again too

United KingdomMy biggest problem breakfast tart at8;30am. the waiter told me he can get it at 8am the eraliest. I'm afraid if you are travelling for work that's too late. sure for holiday is good for the late start, but not for work.

United KingdomThe struggle at breakfast bearing in mind I'd told them of my dietary requirements when I booked. As I said it did get resolved but surely they could source gluten free sausages.
The room was excellent although the housekeeping was a little brief. My husband enjoyed his breakfast but no croissant on the 2nd day (continental breakfast is included in the price and comes pre-plated). I struggled a little as I need to be gluten free but it all got sorted in the end.

United KingdomFinding it was a challenge especially in the dark. Couldn’t get cooked breakfast as they had no chef but the continental provided was good. Loved the fruit in the morning so fresh. Unfortunately they stop serving Sunday meals at 5pm. Also would’ve been good to be informed about the cooked breakfast as was really looking forward.
The staff were exceptionally helpful got me some food to eat from delivery on their account which was amazing. Outside layout great. Also liked the restaurant as well as learning the history of the place. I am certain in the summer it’s buzzing for what they offer.
