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...).

OMG it was so cool and cute. I walked through the halls and it felt like I was living in the Merlin Tv show. I was soo happy with the general aesthetic of the place

United Kingdomthe mattress was very squishy, but this was a personal preference. (currently) nowhere to eat in Llangadog but the butcher's pies over the road were exceptionally good.
Beautiful room, very opulent four poster bed. Hotel has lots of character and the staff were nice.

United KingdomThere were a couple of minor things but they didn't spoil our stay: The windows didn't open so you couldn't let fresh air into the room, there was a green emergency light which stayed on all night and it made it difficult for me to get off to sleep and the mattress was very soft.
The room was done in a grand traditional style and was a good size. The corridors and stairs also had old historical items like a suit of armour, coats of arms, paintings etc. The staff were friendly and helpful

United KingdomNo meals available. No evening meal or breakfast. We had been at a market stall all day in the rain and just wanted a warm meal but we settled for packet sandwiches from a local co-op. This was available when I booked and then received an email after booking saying no food available. So that was a shame.
It's a wonderful old building. Loads of character. We had the pleasure of sleeping with Elizabeth 1st . Yes you read that right. I did ask the staff the reason behind the names she couldn't tell me. The staff were wonderful and very helpful. The bed was really comfy and. Clean. It was a 4 post bed and the room was set in a royal deep red and gold theme, with old dark wooden large furniture.The colour continues to the bathroom with red wall paper where the steam of a bathroom had started to warp the paper. The cleaners do an amazing job with such an old building. Don't come to this building with a spirit level. As nothing is level. The floors or the walls. But it is very much a very Old building in a small town. It's a case of you get what you pay for. Don't book this place and expect the Hilton for the price you're paying. But if you're just needing a place to lay your head for a reasonable fee that is clean and covers the basics then this place does the job. In the room there was a TV which did work. and the basics of kettle coffee tea ect. White towels. Think that covers it.
