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 KingdomBedroom wasn’t warm enough. No food served in the restaurant on the night we arrived. The Hotel had had money spent on it but sadly lacked clients
The Hotel was a last minute booking for us. We had been stranded in the snow on the A9 and needed accommodation. The Hotel was clean and could accommodate us👍

United KingdomThe staff were friendly enough but not exceptional. The bar needed mood lighting - it was a tiny space but didn't feel cosy or have atmosphere.
Breakfast was fabulous, the bar was comfy and had a good selection. The room was modern and clean. The common areas had highland charm. There was good parking at the hotel. The area the hotel is in is absolutely stunning!

Dinner was very good and the young man [Ross] who served was very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was lovely and just the correct portion size. All staff were pleasant and appeared to be on the lookout to see if there was anything my husband or I needed.

United KingdomWhile the "chips" with the steak and ale pie were superb, it is "chips with everything" on the menu, so that is not so good. As I had booked in advance, I would have expected the room to be warm, but the heating had not been put on. Also, the "hot" water to the sink is scalding, they could save money by not heating it to boiling point!!!
Food was good, in fact too much, and could not finish either the full breakfast or evening meal.

United KingdomVery limited choice of menu for a hotel (only 5 main courses to choose from - when you are staying 3 nights that really restricts the choice). The menu remained the same for all 3 nights - there were no specials. The hotel kitchen closed early the first night, (8.20pm), which we were not made aware of until too late, so we were unable to have a dessert. The following night we were given dessert on the house to compensate for this.
The staff were excellent and there was ample parking. The hotel was well located for visiting the area. The meals were good. Lots of nice toiletries provided in the rooms.
