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 hotel has massive potential. We had a continental breakfast which was plentiful and proper coffee although a small fridge for the milk and yoghurts would have been ideal. I hope they can fulfil their staffing quota to make the hotel outstanding.
The location was fantastic. The honesty of the staff was refreshing. The room was very spacious and clean but needed a double check/refresh before people arrive. Plenty of tea/coffee/milk/biscuits. The kindness of the staff was great. We would stay again.

United KingdomThe brewery need to start listening to the staff, there is a few improvements that could be made, upstairs needs an upgrade,although my room was spot on,room 16 ,the breakfast was disappointing the first day, doesn't need to be fancy, noone needs herbs in their baked beans and over done bacon. Definitely need to employ a decent chef, feel really sorry for the staff, they try thier best but have no support, would hate to see the dolphin shut down
Staff were fabulous, Kim n Charlie made us feel right at home, location is fab right in the middle of beer, stayed here a few times now n would always go back

United KingdomThe noisy extractor fan would have disturbed others but there was no adjoining room on that side.
Breakfast selection and full English were very good. Also the room was quiet, probably as it was winter.

United KingdomOnly minor points to raise here. I had to rush off in the morning so didn't have time to mention them at the desk. The main light in my room (14) took a very long time to 'warm up'. I suggest replacing the bulb with an up-to-date version. The wash basin mirror light didnt work. A pity that no real ales from Devon were on offer. I'm assuming that the hotel is a Hall & Woodhouse owned establishment. The Badger Best however was very good.
Very friendly staff. A lovely home-made veggie curry for my evening meal. A really good hearty breakfast. Options for fruit juice, plenty of cereal choices, a nicely proportioned and presented full English main course, toast you could 'customise' with the revolving toaster and great coffee. Good to have a key for access after the hotel had closed for the evening. Plenty of hangers in the wardrobe - makes a welcome change! Great value for money!
