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...).

AustraliaHard to fault other than the bed, although comfortable, was inexplicably narrow given the generous size of the bedroom.
Our Rossal House Apartment felt like staying in a country manor. The entry to the house is quite grand in scale and furnishings. The scale of the staircase makes it easy to negotiate with luggage, being wide, shallow in angle and having broad treads. The lounge/dining room is simply huge and very comfortable. There are nice views from the windows of the expansive grounds. Watching the antics of the Red Squirrels in the big trees was an unexpected treat. Kitchen is modern, clean and functional. Bedroom is a good size with floor space to lay cases out. Bathroom is functional. A car is best as the house is too far from the town centre for it to be practical to walk to restaurants. We could have easily stayed a week here.

AustriaWe heard the next apartment very loud, especially in the living room. Some more hooks in the bathroom and/or bedrooms (to hang/dry towels) would be very handy.
The atmosphere of this old building was great. Check-in/out worked perfectly

SingaporeWe booked two units at this property, but I wish they had placed both inside the main house together. It felt like my brother’s family was a bit separated from us, which wasn’t ideal. Their unit had a more modern style, lacking the classic Scottish charm that we loved in ours, but was comfortable.
We booked two units at this property—one was inside a large house and the other behind it. I was thrilled with how lovely the interiors and my apartment/unit looked, designed in a charming classic Scottish style. Checking in and out was super smooth, and we didn’t need to meet anyone from the property. Our stay was incredibly comfortable, and we loved every moment. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone!

NetherlandsReally stylish and luxury accommodation in a beautiful building. Many details are considered like very good quality towels, nice coffee cups, Netflix on TV, etc. It’s location is just next to the Ness river so, in about 20 minutes, filling the river you can be at the center of Inverness

United KingdomThe flat in the outbuilding is more simply furnished, and we noticed some areas that could use a bit more attention to cleanliness—particularly around the windows and on the carpet, where there were a few stains.
The apartment in the main building is spacious, very comfortable, and well-furnished. The flat in the outbuilding is also quite spacious and works well for a family of 4 or 5.

SwitzerlandThe location is great, you can walk to the centre in about 20 minutes and the way leads along the river but you don't have the bustle of the city center around you. Also, if you happen to visit the highland games, the apartments are perfect since the games take place on the other side of the river and you can walk there in about 10 minutes over the beautiful little islands in the river.

Great location. We used this as a home base while we explored Inverness, Loch Ness, and distilleries. Plenty of parking space. We didn't see any of the other people staying there even though we know the rooms were rented. Our room was large, and we appreciated the kitchen and multiple seating areas.
