Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

CanadaIf you want to go for dîner at the old inn, think of reserving many weeks in advance! They are extremely busy. Alternatively, go for a drink at end of evening 😀

SwitzerlandOne of the highlights of our entire trip: from the start, Mike made us feel so welcome and at home. Breakfast was amazing, Mike even took his time to book us a restaurant for dinner, and gave us recommendations for restaurants and the area. The rooms are generous and inviting for short and long stays. It's not your run of the mill hotel, the rooms and common area really tell a story of someone putting actual care and their heart into it. It's a pity we had so many things to see that we honestly didn't get to spend enough time listening to Mike's stories, reading out on the balcony, or just relaxing on one of the (by accident) two huge beds in our room. We could not recommend a stay at Appin Bay View enough, and will definitely come back. Thanks for everything Mike, and see you around.

NetherlandsThe floor is making a bit of noise when you walk around. Something that can make you wake up in the night when going to the bathroom. But well, all the other positive things will make you forget this little thing.
We really enjoyed our stay here. Mike is a great host who makes you feel home right away. His kindness, smile and excellent breakfast makes you want to come back or tell about to you friends& familie. The house is a bit older but the facilities, bed and power shower are great! And the view is amazing! Within three minutes walking distance you find a great restaurant with lovely people as well. When around, we will definitely come back!

United StatesAbsolutely nothing - it was perfect
Appin Bay View is beautiful. Mike is the best host - greeted us warmly when we arrived. Enjoyed our conversations and his breakfasts are delicious. Be sure to try his Thai breakfast - 😋 We stayed in the Eyrie suite - the view was amazing of the bay and castle. The location was perfect for all our adventures. Be sure to eat dinner at The Old Inn - just a five minute walk down the road - the food was great! Appin is a lovely area. Wish we could have stayed longer... Thank you, Mike, for your warm hospitality.

United StatesWe had an amazing stay at this B&B. The host was incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to make us feel special, even helping us book a local restaurant table on the day we arrived, which made everything so much easier. The breakfast was excellent, and our room and bathroom were very large and comfortable. The location was perfect for exploring Glencoe, making our trip hassle-free. A special touch was the bottle of champagne waiting for us to celebrate our engagement — such a thoughtful and memorable gesture. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

DenmarkWe had an amazing stay at Appin Bay View. The owner, Mike, couldn't have been more accommodating. He had lots of tips of what to see and do in the local area, recommendations for the best local restaurants, and was the best host. The accommodation is really convenient for exploring the area around Glencoe and Fort William. The magnificent and breathtaking view from our spacious and comfortable room was the icing on the cake. The breakfast was delicious, especially the Asian breakfast which sets you up for the whole day. Wish we could have stayed longer, but I'm sure that we'll be back again at some point in the future.
