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 KingdomUnfortunately the room we opted for, which was one of the cheaper options as it was only a one night stay, had no hot water. We were informed that the plumber had been in earlier, due to a boiler problem. The lack of hot water for showering was obviously an inconvenience. Before going out that evening a quick chat with staff said if they couldn't resolve the water issue, they would put us in another room. When we returned just after 10:30pm the premises were in darkness and there was no staff about, so we went up to the room, no hot water. Unfortunately they had left a note down in reception which was in darkness, about the room we could move to, but we didn't actually see it. So obviously we would have suggested leaving a note in the room. But they did try to resolve the problem.
We only opted for breakfast during our stay. The products were to a high standard and obviously sourced with some thought to quality. (Stornaway black blackpudding)

United KingdomThere was no-one there when we arrived. There was no signage to say it doesn’t open until 2pm. It was a bit shabby, looking as if it had closed down - gave a poor first impression.
The old style and the quaintness. It had a good choice of food.

United KingdomSome odd drainage smells outside, noisy if wrong windows open due to boilers/fans right outside window. Previous occupants dirty underwear in drawer. Cold shower for two out of three days. Very dusty behind bedside tables. Toilet seat loose. Cobwebby around fireplace.
Space in the room, tasteful decor, easy access to garden and bar area. Huge comfy bed, clean linen and towels. Breakfast was really good and evening meals were outstanding. Bar staff, and staff waiting on tables very helpful and friendly.

GermanyUnfortunately, while we were staying the weather was very cold. We had a room in the stables but we couldn't get the heating to work in the bathroom, so taking showers was more invigorating than desired. The breakfast was fine, but not really as generous as you'd hope for in a country pub.
The location is wonderful, exactly what you'd want for a short trip to the Cotswolds. The staff were also good.

United KingdomThe location of the room meant we didn't have the best view but didn't spend too much time in the room during daylight hours. There were a couple of areas where cleanliness could have been better - a spillage of coffee on the drawer unit that had also fallen on to the floor (this seemed to have been cleaned after the first night of our stay) and there was some scum on the shower cable.
We had a meal on our first night and it was exceptional! The quality of the cooked breakfast was also very good. The location of the Inn makes it very quiet and peaceful.

United KingdomThe decor upstairs was a bit worn/tired and the bedroom was very small. The internal dark brown wooden doors didn’t help the rooms - if they were painted white the rooms and corridors would feel much brighter. WiFi connection wasn’t great in the room which made it difficult to work in. There was a food wrapper under the bed and someone had left a grubby pair of wired ear buds and a used pantyliner wrapping in the bedside drawer which was a bit gross. I didn’t like the dark loopy bath mat next to the toilet as it didn’t feel hygienic having it there.
Great food - we had both dinner and breakfast there. Lovely quiet location and easy drive to Bourton on the Water. Friendly staff. Cost bar and restaurant area.
