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 KingdomMy only criticism would be that the bathroom was a little bit cold. A heated towel rail would solve the problem and also mean that towels could be dried rather than remaining damp between showers

United KingdomI rang prior to our stay as being disabled needed a ground floor room which they said would be available with walk in shower. On arrival were told us our room was upstairs and as they didnt have a lift was unacceptable. Receptionist swapped our room saying there was no record on the booking about my request, no apology and didnt seem to care about there error. Ended up with a room with shower over bath and 3 steps down to get to room. Very awkward for me to navigate. Room and bathroom needed serious tlc but was fairly clean. Bed was very hard like sleeping on boxes.
Went here and stayed 2 nights for a wedding. The hotel did a good job catering to, staff wete very efficient and friendly on the day and food was lovely.

United KingdomThe room was awkward to get to as we have accessibility issues. These were not communicated in advance, which is our error, but there was no attempt to understand whether the room offered was suitable for us. The room was located in the eaves of the original building, the sloped ceiling was a challenge for us. The room was not particularly clean, with spiders webs dust visible within the secondary glazing frames. Hot water took a long time to come through when requested.
The food offering was enjoyable and well received. Dinner on the Saturday night was lovely, food fresh and well presented, breakfast was good on the Sunday, but would have been nice to know that the service style would change for the Monday.

United KingdomThere were minor things, the pluses far outweighed them, given the price I've no complaint whatsoever.
What I paid was the top end of my budget - but the lowest end of what was available in the area... wow was I happy with the value for money! Spacious, colour-coordinated, softly lit, super comfy room, looking out on a scenic garden courtyard. On heading out for an early morning run, the gentleman on reception directed me on an excellent route around Steeple Aston, which offered sightings of wildlife and thatched cottages.

United KingdomNothing, we had a great time.
The building itself, the staff were super friendly ( the two ladies at the reception were beautiful, polite and very friendly) the rooms were nice, the heating was great and the breakfast had a good variety so overall was great since we just booked it last minute and we didn’t think much of it as we just needed somewhere for the night.

United KingdomThe valuated ceiling. The small bed. Finally the TV was small for the size of the room.
To start with, Big carpark easy to find space. If you have a big van you will have no problem parking your vehicle. The receptionist was very efficient in finding our reservation and giving us the room key. Although the room was a good size it was spoilt by the low vaulted ceiling. The bed was comfortable but small. The bathroom was very clean bright and spacious. Both bed room and bathroom seemed to have recently been modernised and decorated.
