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...).

United KingdomGreat place close to ferry terminal (5min drive) and a great base to explore the rest of Island. Staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was very comfy and really clean with a great sea view. The breakfasts were tasty and plentiful and they catered well for my gluten and dairy intolerances and my partner who is vegan. Would definitely recommend.

United KingdomThe hotel was up to our expectations, although we hardly chose the best time to visit IOM. Cold ,windy and wet, but enjoyed ourselves non the less.
Hosts were absolutely delightful, friendly, helpful and very pleasant. The room was spotlessly clean, the food well cooked and presented (portions rather large for my appetite but partner more than satisfied)

GermanyWe really enjoyed our 4 night stay and would not hesitate to stay here again. Our room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. It was well equipped with tea and coffee and the WiFi worked well for us. Everyone we met was very friendly. Breakfast was very nice and there was a good selection to choose from (including Manx kippers!) We were very pleased with Arrandale House and felt it was excellent value for money.

United KingdomFeels a bit shabby. Curtains could do with replacing. They need a few more hooks and had a ripped bit. Not the properties fault but it's a bit of a hill up to it.
Very lovely cooked breakfast. Good quality bacon and sausage. We had a early start and they were happy to do breakfast earlier than usual time. Plenty of tea/coffee in rooms. Even a biscuit. Bed comfortable. Duvet to hot for me but they had a blanket in wardrobe which did the job for me.

CanadaThe room was a little cramped. However, I never did end up asking if it was possible to sit in the dining room while not officially open to have more space to sit while raining.
The staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and so quick. The vibe is comfortable, like home. The stairs up to the rooms are narrow and steep to keep in mind if there are any mobility issues.
