Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomA bit over priced. I think they charge more because of the proximity to Rosalyn chapel, which was why we were there, as perhaps many other visitors.

United KingdomI couldn't adjust my own heating (set to a thermometer outside of the rooms) so that was a bit sad trying to warm up after being out in rain all day. Someone did try to sort this for me in fairness but it didn't work haha. The pillows weren't the most supportive either, they're the kind that go really flat when you lie on them. Aside from these couple of points I had a really lovely stay.
The room and staff were lovely! Breakfast was great. Housekeeping kept everything well stocked :)

SpainUnfortunately the tea room doesn't open until 9am, would have loved one of the excellent coffees a little earlier! Also check in was before 9pm which when travelling from Edinburgh after dinner was a bit of a rush.
Lovely room and Amy was friendly and welcoming. Town very pretty. Bed was comfortable and temperature of room was good. Granola and latte from the tea room were excellent.

United KingdomA bit rough around the edges (e.g. towels were a bit old and scratchy, cobwebs in room etc) but nothing that really detracted from our stay. Despite being associated the tearoom, breakfast was not included in room rate.
Perfect location to travel into Edinburgh on the bus. Friendly and welcoming staff. The attached tea room offered a delicious breakfast. Peaceful village. Worked really well for our visit to the Fringe Festival.

United KingdomIt was a corner room, so there was traffic noise on 2 sides. It requires a little care and attention - for example, if you were not tall enough, you would have to stand on a stool to reach the cord to turn on the electric shower! Breakfast is at the cafe next door so not available until 9am, and was very slow service even with only one other customer in at the time. However, when it did arrive, it was very good.
A very large, spacious room.

NetherlandsShower space is really small. Room is without breakfast, but at 9am the Tearoom downstairs is open. Good to know if you book the early visit to Rosslyn Chapel which starts at 9am.
We had a lovely spacious room, and the location is ideal for visiting Rosslyn Chapel (200 m). Very friendly host. Opposite the guesthouse is an Inn, with a very cosy pub and nice meals.

CanadaThere was no wifi reception in my room and minimal light. Another lamp and stronger light bulb overhead would have been better . These 2 issues meant I had to go out of my room to use my phone or read.
The staff were friendly and helpful. Excellent location for visiting the chapel. I appreciated the kettle in the room. The café downstairs was very convenient with a good breakfast, tea and desserts. Nice that there was gluten free options too!
