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 KingdomThe Horsefair was in town for the week. Unfortunately this meant the hotel was under lock and key and we were limited in the time we could spend in the bar and couldn't sit in the beer garden to the rear, even in gorgeous spring sunshine. Not the establishments fault that the travellers arrived 2 days earlier than expected but regrettable at the actions and restrictions in place for patrons.
We loved the hotel and room

United KingdomWe came in from the back entrance as that’s were the car park was so we didn’t get a chance to see much of the hotel. The stairs were a big problem for me as I am disabled and I was unable to breathe by the time we got to the room so I had to use my nebulizer. I didn’t think about that when I booked so it’s my fault.
The sheep was very convenient for the wedding we were attending and the price was great

United KingdomThe shower is modern and the bathroom facilities are good. However, the shower head was dripping constantly, and we had to place it in the bath to stop the dripping noise. The restaurant is lovely and I was served a full English breakfast which looked excellent, until I came to eat it as it was lukewarm / in parts cold, rather than hot. I could have mentioned this to the member of staff on duty but didn't so in fairness I didnt give them the opportunity to put things right which I am sure they would have done. The team member in the restaurant who served us was very good.
We stayed for just one night but were warmly welcomed and soon checked in. The room was as expected, cosy and comfortable. The bed too was comfortable. The hotel is very dog friendly which was one of the main reasons for choosing the hotel. The location is excellent too right in the main area of Stow on the Wold.
