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 KingdomWe got an offer so can’t complain but the room had slanted ceilings and my husband is 6ft 6 and kept banging his head. Hotel wasn’t to know but my husband is about to have a knee replacement and the room was miles away from reception and restaurant and up many stairs. Otherwise beautiful room.
Good food, friendly staff, great location.

United KingdomNothing to dislike.
All our meals were excellent with generous portions. No issue if eg one egg as opposed to two was requested, nothing appeared a bother. Our room was ideal as not all twin bedded rooms provide a tad more space. All your restaurant staff were cheerful, reception staff helpful and housekeeping assisted with replenishing coffee etc. Our stay was extended due to severe weather conditions cutting village off by flooding and landslides. It was good to see your staff multi tasking when short staffed, again due to weather. Fact that some got into work by tractor and 4x4 vehicles is testament to their commitment not letting owners and guests down. Hope they are paid well which l am sure they are or they wouldn’t have been so committed.

United KingdomNothing. These people cannot be praised enough for the way they managed an emergency situation. They never charged the stranded people for accommodation . They only charged for food
We managed to get to the Creggans with a great deal of difficulty as all the roads were blocked by landslides . It is all credit to this Inn who took in stranded travellers to the extent that the residents lounge was turned into a dormitory for stranded travellers. The hosts went beyond the expectations to cater for all. We enjoyed the thrill of being cut off from the rest of Scotland . The food was good and the atmosphere friendly.

United KingdomA small fridge in the room and a quilt instead of a blanket on the bed would have made the stay even better than it was but these are small niggles and not really important.
The view from our room was absolutely wonderful. All the food - dinner and breakfast was cooked and prepared to a high standard - clean plates all round. The bed was really comfortable. We had a suite which was an added bonus and the views from every room even the bathroom across Loch Fyne were wonderful. The staff were friendly and helpful - our stay was perfect.
