Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

IrelandNot an issue for me personally but there is a lively bar downstairs and you will hear chatter until about midnight so very early/light sleepers might want to bear that in mind.
I can't speak highly enough of the staff - doing this trip solo I felt really well looked after, respected, amd very safe. I loved the quirkiness and character of the hotel, it felt like a really unique place to stay, and the room and bathroom were exceptional. Great food too - after a day up in the mountains it was great to be able to come back to the hotel and have everything you needed right there.

United KingdomI stayed here with my bridal party the night before my wedding and I can’t say enough how generous and accommodating the staff were, which made the morning of the wedding so enjoyable - they opened the premises early to allow our hair and makeup team to arrive and allowed us to use one of their function rooms in the morning to get our hair and makeup done together and to eat breakfast! We also ate here the night before and the food was lovely! Would definitely stay here again and recommend anyone looking for accommodation in the heart of Abergavenny to stay here!

The staff are extremely welcoming and accommodating, very patient and available for anything you need. The breakfast in the morning was amazing, with lots of options and comes very quickly once sat down. Their system to take your order the night before and what time you want the breakfast works very well. I did not have dinner there but if the breakfast is anything to go by I'm sure it is amazing. The bar area is very nice, giving a very cosy and comfortable feel. Locals also like to go to the bar and they have some live music on certain nights. Overall we had a lovely time!

United KingdomEverything was ideal. Nothing needs attention.
The warm welcome! The staff were very friendly, helpful and did everything to make the stay a pleasure. Their help with transport and other advice such as restaurants and shops was most welcome. A personal touch. The bar and evening live music set we sat in on had a lovely atmosphere. It is authentic. The hotel itself is a gem. The modernisation is sympathetic to the historic oak timber structure. Full of character. The food and dining facilities are of a high standard. We enjoyed a fabulous Sunday lunch. The fish course was delicious, outstanding. Table booking is recommended, it is very popular locally. Breakfast is not to be missed. One of the best I have had in recent times. The location is spot on. The hotel is dog friendly. Popular with locals as a place to meet. The Kings Arms offers extremely good value for money. Much recommended. Just to mention, if taxis is required, be sure to book in advance by phone, particularly on Sundays. The hotel staff were excellent in giving this top tip and supplying details in advance for us.

United KingdomIt was unclear that there would be a charge of £25 for bringing our dog which in fairness they waived. That would make it £140 for one night at that rate which is very pricey.
Quiet, spacious and clean room. Great location and lovely pub. The breakfast was really good.

United KingdomMy decision to check in on Boxing Day night meant it was noisy (pub on ground floor, then car alarm and morning street sweeper!) but it is a wonderful hotel with excellent staff in a great location.
Quirky characterful property. Excellent staff. Sumptuous bed and bedding. Tv and Wi-Fi in room. Kettle and choice of tea and coffee, or hot choc. Staff upgraded me to quieter bedroom on Boxing Day.
