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 KingdomAll good except for other guests who were noisy after midnight having a heated argument in the corridor. Turned out they were US army personnel. They need to be more mindful of other guests.
Great room, internet, breakfast, etc but worth you avoiding little toiletries in plastic wrapping - all adds to single use throwaways. Is there a local maker worth partnering with who uses more sustainable packaging?

United States of AmericaReception area is a little non descript, we arrive when there was a full blown wedding going on and thought we had walked into the wrong area. The key cards for some reason didnt work, we must’ve had 4 attempts at changing them .
Room, very clean, breakfast was excellent, service a little slow. Dinner was very good although for some reason my food did not arrive and by the time I got it everyone else had eaten, I was offered a free drink to compensate, but feel that my meal should’ve been free. I only ordered the chicken with salad. When it did arrive it looked like a plate of grated carrots!!!

United KingdomBooked rose petals and chocolates on arrival, was charged for this when I arrived but had not been done. Chocolates were then sent to the room that looked like there were leftover from someone else plate. Room was freezing, had to ask twice for someone to come look at it. In the end was left with little electric radiator. Bar, evening meal and breakfast, staff seemed over run and not enough capacity to manage volume of guests. Evening meal was cold food on hot plates, had to request service each time.
Spa facilities were lovely, nice views from window in hotel room,

United KingdomWhen arriving at spa there were no robes available, even though there was barely anyone in the actual spa. They did offer to get some from our room, we said not to worry but when we got to our room we didn’t have any there anyway so had none for the next day in spa either. I think if paying for a ‘room with spa access’ you should be able to use the spa for the duration of your stay not just a few hours. For the price paid I think more breakfast variety could be available without having to pay extra.
Decor and presentation were beautiful, staff were very friendly and helpful. Beautiful surroundings/views. Very relaxed atmosphere.

United KingdomThe bad smell of the reception-bar area is not really nice. Our room and the whole building had a bit of refurbishment definitely, but it is a really outdated building. The extra bed provided to our daughter was horrible ,bless her, unfortunately she couldn't sleep Unfortunately, we wouldn't recommend it . The staff was nice . It wasn't worth taking any memorable photos at all.
Dinner and breakfast were nice

United KingdomWiFi didn't work. Some aspects of pricing feel a bit mean- having a surcharge for a full English feels penny pinching, better to add the £5 onto the room? Spa access restricted according to room rate, we would have enjoyed a morning swim before we checked out but had already used our hours access!
Lovely pool, great meal and comfortable quiet room. Staff attentive and communal areas nicely furnished and spacious. Nice rural setting and attractive parkland around it. Easy to get to Gloucester or Cheltenham, and the fabulous Nature in Art round the corner too.

United KingdomThe reception staff didn’t seem particularly happy or that helpful, not sure if they have been customer service trained. The reception area is a bit of a nothing, we weren’t even sure it was reception. The area from the back carpark to the front down the side, needed some pavement work doing, it was hazardous.
I liked the restaurant, bar and area between these, it was smart and comfortable, especially the area with the log burner. The lady in the bar during the day and late afternoon of the 14th was really friendly and helpful.

United KingdomThe room (109) smelt a bit foisty and needed to open the windows I think probably from wet clothes or towels coming back from the spa. Not a big issue but a shame as rest of the room was comfortable and clean.
Good facilities with being able to access the spa and gym whilst working away is a bonus.
