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 stairs up to our room in the attic were very steep and narrow and difficult to negotiate with luggage. Personally, I didn't like the metal bars at the head of the bed as this made it impossible to sit up in bed comfortably.
Ascot house is a lovely old building. The breakfast was very good and we liked being able to walk into the centre whilst leaving our car in their car park. Great shower too..

United KingdomThere is a beautiful lounge area which wasn’t really used - I think we would have spent some time there if there had been tea and coffee available.
We loved the character of the property and the grand and rich decor which made it special and unique. The facilities were beautifully maintained, spotlessly clean and the beds were large and extremely comfortable. There was a good choice of breakfast and it was all delicious!

United KingdomWe were in a ground floor room adjacent to the main front door, so we could hear other guests that were standing outside smoking and talking late at night.
The room and bathroom were very clean and the breakfast was very good. We were able to park at the rear of the property.

Lovely victorian features with all the modern amenities. The bed was super comfy, the owner and staff very friendly and the breakfast one of the best I had in a while. Free parking which was hard to come by at other hotels. Very close walk to the old town(about 15 minutes). Would highly recommend

United KingdomNothing. My only comment - and it’s small and personal - I would’ve preferred coffee mugs as opposed to little cups in the room and at breakfast. Coffee at breakfast could’ve been a little stronger, but again, this is purely a personal preference.
The house itself is beautiful. The owner’s son gave us a very warm welcome the night we arrived, and the owner and the rest of the staff were so friendly and helpful when we met them the next morning at breakfast. The room was comfortable and the shower was amazing! Breakfast too was amazing. Our dog was given a lovely warm welcome too.

CanadaWhen we arrived, the host had to lock our luggage as the guests prior to us had neglected to return their key to what was now our room. It did feel strange with others having the key to our room, but the host arranged to collect the key back from them and waited to let us in.
Lovely place, and the host was gracious. The breakfast was good (although the coffee was a bit weak for us stiff drinkers who generally prefer espresso). Beds were comfortable and we all slept well. Conveniently to a small convenience store.
