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 KingdomNothing. We couldn’t find anything to fault it.
This is an exquisite family home which guests are lucky to share. Our room, Pepecorn, had a luxury 4 poster, view onto open fields, a seating area, separate small coffee room and thence on to a spotlessly clean ensuite complete with walk in shower. We had yoghurt/porridge staters for breakfast followed by the ‘full English’ which was delicious. As it was early May when we stayed here, we didn’t brave the use of the outdoor swimming pool…

United KingdomTreated ourselves to the cashelle suite which was stunning - bed was so comfy and cosy and having our own lounge was just great. Like you’ve been welcomed into someone’s home with hotel standards.
Absolutely fabulous ❤️ it doesn’t get any more quintessential than this. Like stepping back in time but with beautiful modern facilities. Home made cake on the terrace, a fab little honesty bar and the most welcome hosts. They couldn’t have been nicer. Breakfast was delicious - thank you we had the best stay we will see you again!

United KingdomIt was 20 minutes from the centre and as we love walking was no problem at all, but if you don’t like steep hills you would have to take the car to town.
Beautifully furnished and comfortable. Every thing was faultless from the fresh roses in the room to the gorgeous bathroom. The food was excellent and the hosts welcoming and friendly.

United KingdomWe liked everything !
The location of Beryl is perfect with the most beautiful view from our bedroom window with Wells Cathedral in the distance. Because we arrived in daylight,I walked around the lovely gardens and sat in the Japanese Pergoda that over looks a large pond. I also walked through The Bluebell Wood adjacent to the house. The room was very comfortable with a huge bath. Holly greeted us on arrival and was very friendly. We met Mathew at breakfast and he was charming too!

Beautiful house and extremely comfortable. Our room had a separate sitting room, a very comfortable bed with all attention to detail. A kitchenette with fridge provided cold, fresh milk for tea in our room. Afternoon tea was included & served with cake downstairs every day. The breakfast was delicious with local produce used. We were so well looked after in such a wonderful home.

Everything about our stay was absolutely excellent. The room was incredibly comfortable, clean and very roomy. The breakfast was fabulous and we loved coming back late afternoon to tea, coffee and cakes. The location was spot on too. It’s close enough to walk to the centre but far enough to be private and quiet.

United States of AmericaNothing. Exceptionally wonderful!
Elegant, historic property with spacious bedrooms, amazingly comfortable bed, and glorious views (from the Master bedroom). The staff was very friendly, helpful, attentive. The grounds were beautiful. We were unable to take advantage of all Beryl Country House had to offer due to our short stay and the rainy weather, but it’s clear the property has been lovingly and carefully renovated and restored over time. A wonderful breakfast, with amazing service. Entire staff was kind, considerate and friendly. A memorable stay.
