Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomOne of the staff at the restaurant clearly did not want to be there and he made us feel like an inconvenience which was a shame as the rest of the staff really were wonderful. Having no dogs in the restaurant and no food in the dog friendly bar feels like they are trying to starve dog owners. Very odd policy for such a great dog friendly hotel. This should be reviewed as the options didn’t work for us which lost the hotel revenue. It would also put us off coming again.
I loved that we could bring our dog, the views were beautiful, cream tea was great, most of the staff were wonderful and there were nice thoughtful touches throughout. The spa was lovely and general space and feel of the hotel was of a very high standard. Breakfast tray idea was great.

United KingdomSpa facilities, only one small hotub, sauna and steam room, about 10 people booked in at once, a lot of sitting around waiting to be able to actually use something. Left early, waste of £15 extra that you have to pay
Absolutely insane view from the room and when dining! Beautiful, so beautiful! Great staff and amazing room!

United KingdomThink what I paid for the room the bed should have been updated as it was vey tatty and the room could have been a lot cleaner, as there was a lot of dust and fluff about.
Lovely location, great view from room and staff were amazing.

United KingdomBreakfast was a disaster. Due to the system they had, which will never work,as it had to be served in a certain order, otherwise they couldn’t cope and because of this we waited 45 mins. Each member of staff could only do the task appointed, so ordering extra anything. ie, coffee, toast etc. didn’t happen.
Dinner was very good.staff were very good. Accommodation was very clean with a good size room, overlooking the lake. Car parking was adequate, but steep hill for carrying luggage to and from room.

United KingdomThe upkeep of the rooms was a little lacking, some things were a bit dated, and the spa was a little small.
A lovely room with a stunning view over the reservoir made this last minute getaway very enjoyable. The staff are very polite, chatty and attentive and the good was of a very high standard. The spa is a nice addition and has incredible views.

United KingdomThe rooms could do with a refresh - the shower in our room was not great. The service was sometimes a little slow but it was tricky as we were a bigger group - I did message the restaurant a few weeks prior about sorting out a cake but they had no record of this when we had dinner on the first night which was a shame.
We love this hotel - the food is really fantastic and the location is amazing. The staff were wonderful and happy to help, they also made my dad’s 60th special for him. We had a really great time and it was the best location in the evenings to spend time as a family and play cards.
