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 KingdomThe online menu is out of date. Based on that, we booked to eat somewhere else, but then heard by chance, that Wednesday night is Curry Night, so we cancelled our booking and enjoyed a curry at the Vernon. Poor online marketing, would do a lot better if the online offerings were up to date.

United KingdomThe food was very disappointing but perhaps it was our menu choice. The menu for evening meal was limited. We ordered the margherita pizza. Unfortunately it was undercooked, the tomatoes were tasteless and there was far too much cheese on top that was undercooked, there was no basil, which was disappointing as there are only 3 ingredients in a margherita pizza. We left it. Breakfast was a bit DIY, not sure what was on offer, perhaps a little menu would be good. Milk and fruit juice you helped yourself to in a fridge ( fridge not very clean). We were offered cooked breakfast but declined. The property met our expectations but unfortunately the food didn't.
Very smart decor in the pub itself and the bedroom. The room ( no.1) had a lovely bathroom and nice quality towels. Good accommodation for £95. Good access to the M5. Very quiet, although on a road there were no traffic issues or noise.

United KingdomThe shower room probably could do with a little updating, ie the shower door didn't seal properly (small puddle on the floor after showering) etc, but saying that it all worked fine and the shower itself was decent.
The staff were very helpful and friendly, brilliant evening meals along with a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere all round.

United KingdomThe only reason I have marked facilities down is the wifi is not good enough, I was travelling with work and ended up leaving my laptop in the car as I couldn't have done any work if I'd tried.
Lovely stay at The Vernon, staff could not have possibly done more, they were all welcoming and attentive. The Chef is an absolute star! Both my evening meal and breakfast were top notch.

This a beautifully restored 16th century property that is warm and cosy and very clean. I stayed for two nights and slept very well in a comfortable bed. Poached eggs on toast and coffee was a great start to the day. I’ll definitely stay again if I’m back in this part of the country.

United KingdomBreakfast was good, but the fried eggs were awful! A personal request would be to get rid of the handled 'pans' on the plate for the tomatoes and beans. The bed was awfully squeaky, although comfortable. A bit more attention to detail in the cleaning would be recommended to remove cobwebs and leftover caps from toiletries used by the previous resident in the shower
The room was nicely presented and the hotel as a whole is attractive and welcoming, with a massive car park. The staff were very friendly.

United KingdomThe breakfast was the smallest English ever. A tiny egg, one piece of bacon, a very small spicy sausage and a spoonful of tomato. Hash brown and black pudding did not appear. as ticked by me on the sheet. I did not say anything as did not want to cause unpleasantness until I saw the people at the next table have 3 x the scrambled egg to my partner’s spoonful. I can only conclude that being polite did not cut any ice with the chef. There were no cups available when we arrived nor any English tea bags in the tin. When we asked for mugs as did not know only cups , we were told we don’t do mugs. When we asked in a friendly way for a cup then we were eventually given 2 from the cupboard with no apology
Welcome on arrival was excellent. Lovely atmosphere in the bar and barman and receptionist were both super.

United KingdomI had an excellent roast beef sandwich for dinner, but somewhat spoilt by too much horse radish sauce. Suggest the sauce should be an option on the side, or a menu option.
Breakfast was good, but rather standard, Room was quiet and comfortable. Nearby Jinney Ring Craft Centre within walking distance was an interesting shopping opportunity, with good views towards Hanbury Church and the Malvern Hills.

United KingdomHaving booked breakfast for 8:30 am, we went down at the for mentioned time only to find everywhere was locked and no one was to be seen. The chef had overslept and didn't open up until 9:10 am. and started on breakfast.which was tasty. He was very apologetic and embarrassed.
The room was tastefully decorated and clean . The evening meal in the restaurant was of a good standard and tasty but could have done with more selection of veg. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. Even with the chef over sleeping, we would go back here in the future.
