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 KingdomA very clean room which was well equipped with a flatscreen TV, tea making facilities and a sink in the room. The bed was comfortable and I slept very well. The shared bathroom was very clean. Overall, an ideal place to stay in a convenient location that represents good value for money. I will definitely book to stay here again when I'm back in Oban.

United KingdomI had to pick up a key from the centre of town - parking at busy time. The position is out of centre and a dark walk back after a meal. Worst was that the shared bathroom was obviously used by other residents, one of whom defecated on the toilet seat and toilet. As this obviously isn’t checked this was rather nasty to try to use the toilet. The room itself Wass good, clean, well supplied and very clean.

Clean rooms with comfy beds. Great bathroom with separate shower.

GermanyWe booked the single/double room which was enough for the one night we stayed. Small room with bed, wardrobe, basin, kettle, TV. Probably too small for a longer stay but good for one or two nights.

United KingdomStrange boiling water facility - standard electric kettle would be easier to use, especially by foreign guests. Esp foreigners- remember electric shower switch is outside the bathroom - switch on the external wall of the bathroom in the hall.
We did not have any meals within the property, we book only for sleeping before and after early morning round islands trip, no access to kitchen. Very comfy beds, very clean rooms and bathroom, large TV. Very close to ferries, train station and town centre - 10 min walk and 5 min walk to 4 supermarkets. Wash basins within the rooms.

United KingdomWe arrived in Oban at the property after 6 hours travelling ,then found we had to go to a hotel in town to get the keys. There is only a shared bathroom between 3 rooms. There were bed bugs in one room,we have bites and video to prove it. There is invasive cctv watching you go to the bathroom on a night. The owner just takes £200 deposit to cover damages when you book as well as your booking fee, so £405 left our bank account for 2 rooms for a one night stay!very hard to get the deposit back. If you take food back or late to leave the property then the owner will keep the deposit( see reviews from others that have had the misfortune to stay here) The rooms are very dated with old carpets/furnishings. In our room there was a family photo of a little girl ( very creepy) The curtains let the light in with no lining and locked wardrobes.The private room was full of bedding and junk which is a fire hazard.There are sitting tenants also living here,one we met, spoke no English and just walked through the shared hallway. I took a video from the 2 rooms on our departure and went back to the Palace Hotel to show them as the owner is never there and can't be contacted so we could ask for our deposit back. Please read the reviews before even considering this establishment as we should have checked before .It took alot of emails and a week to get the deposit back. Please be warned as any small reason and the owner will keep it!

United KingdomThere was no reception at the property and no obvious instructions, on how to check in. No food or drink preparation/eating facilities, just an expensive coffee vending machine. There was a coffee machine and some herbal tea bags in the room, but no kettle. The TV didn’t work. The outside areas were overgrown and untidy. Poor parking,
Location was ok, just a short walk to the town. the room was clean and well stocked with towels. The WiFi worked.
