Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomWe could not fault anything and really enjoyed our stay.
The breakfast was excellent. We had a cooked breakfast but there were so many choices of cereal, juices, yoghurts, Danish pastries. There was a really extensive choice.

My second stay at Brambles was every bit as good as the first. Alison was very welcoming and every detail was thought of to make my room and stay comfortable. The full English breakfast was a treat. A peaceful location with lovely countryside views just a short distance from Tiverton.

United KingdomThere was nothing at all wrong with Brambles. My only negative comment about our whole trip was about the last part of the road leading out of Uplowman. It is little more than a badly maintained country lane. That needs a fair bit of attention when driving, to avoid the axle-breaking potholes.
The owners were so accommodating, it seemed that nothing was too much trouble. The bed was extremely comfortable and the breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Before our journey, we were sent an email with very clear and detailed directions of how to get there from J27 on the M5, avoiding a less than favourable route that Satnav would have taken us.

United KingdomIt is a rather rare thing for me not to be able to find something to comment on that I did not like, but I have to confess that Brambles has stumped me!
The thought that had obviously gone into so many of the little details of the visitors stay made mine really enjoyable. I found the room really comfortable, with a lovely outlook. The proprietors made me feel at home without being overly intrusive. The breakfast was excellent,

breakfast was outstanding and with notice will accommodate vegan/vegetarian. great views over the valley and a well kept garden. We tried the local pub for an evening meal and it was very good.

United KingdomI liked EVERYTHING.
Superb!! I had the garden room. Beautiful garden views and rolling countryside at the back of the property. The room was spotless. The bed was comfortable. The decor was clean and bright with lots of lovely touches. Biscuits, cheddars, sweets, nuts, toiletries. The room smelled lovely. The en-suite was a good size and spotless. I will be returning. The breakfast was lovely. The proprietors are so nice. Nothing is too much trouble. So welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended.
