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 KingdomRoom service menu was quite limited. The whisky selection wasn’t the best in the Braids Bar. Minor things.
Bed was huge and very comfortable. There was plenty parking, the beer was well kept and the food was excellent. The staff were excellent and the hotel had excellent facilities and great wi-fi.

United KingdomDinner was a disappointment in the bar - the quinoa salad should be reassessed - it was very small and not much salad. The nachos however were great.
I liked the room, the facilities - if I had have known there was a physio and massage facility before I could have booked in. I particularly enjoyed the pool and steam room / cold shower mix

United KingdomThe food and the service at the cocktail bar were truly bad. The staff were really polite but we had to queue for 15 mins to get a drink, the salad was unwashed and included the stem (?) of the lettuce, the chicken wings cold and it took staff a while to get round to cleaning the glasses from previous people that were on our table. It feels like they didn't have enough staff working behind the bar.
The grounds and the outside of the hotel is beautiful. The rooms were ok,spacious and clean

United KingdomThere were two phones in our bedroom, no numbers on the actual phone to state how to call through to reception etc. There was no complimentary bottles of water. There was also no minibar or fridge in the room event though it was evident there was previously one there given the empty cupboard where there was a previous one. They missed the minor details which is disappointing. It seems if you book through a third party such as booking.com that maybe your are penalised for not booking direct through the hotel. The Hotel is situated in West Lothian than Edinburgh, Midlothian.
The Staff basically made the place. They were courteous with a great sense of humour.

United KingdomRooms a little tired be nice if decoration wise it was in keeping with the original part of hotel. For the price you would expect to be more up to date and not stuck in the 90's. Pillows too soft no additional pillows in wardrobe. Window frames need replacing - very weathered and no paint on them. In relation to the next question about meeting our expectations I'm going to answer it here. Yes to the hotel as a whole butt no to the room.
Staff helpful and friendly, room was clean

AustraliaI thought the food offerrings could have been a little more up market - maybe 2 restaurants would be good. I didnt expect to see burgers on the menu. Compared to a lot of places we stayed in I thought the breakfast was average - no freshly cooked options. However there was a large number of people staying.
Lovely staff, very comfortable hotel, the older part where the restaurant and bar were lovely, especially sitting in the bar with the fire. The older part has a lot of charm and has been very nicely refurbished.
