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 KingdomMy room was very dated . A bedside lamp or switch next to the bed to switch off the light should be available . Expensive for the standard of room

United KingdomAir-conditioning (however understand this is an expensive outlay for a small hotel) nothing else, all good.
Lovely hotel located in a lovely part of Bristol. Parking is a real nightmare in the area, so I was grateful I arrived early (10:30am) and found a space at the rear of the hotel. I booked two rooms. One for my wife and I and the other for my two sons. We were in the area to attend a wedding. The Hotel was unable to provide an early check in, however this was expected and caused no issues. Check is was good and very friendly. Still dont know why the Covid screen gets in between guests and reception dialogue but I suppose this is the world we live in. When we checked into our rooms in the main building (there appears to to two) we stayed on the second and top floor which was assessable via stairs only from what I could see. We all could do with a bit of exercise so the incresed heart rate was good for the soul. Room was small however OK for a one night stay. A fan in the room was welcome as there is no air-conditioning. Breakfast was good quality English breakfast with poached eggs (always a challenge for the unskilled!) I was more than happy with the quality of the breakfast and so too was the family. Overall A great experience and if in the area again, we would return.

United KingdomWas really looking forward to breakfast, and having paid 170 for a night I didn’t expect to have raw sausages, in sat for a while waiting for the waitress to come over the clear the table etc but they didn’t so I took it to them. They apologised but didn’t offer fresh/or refund on breakfast so that was quite bad customer service
The property is in a lovely spot in Clifton, nice staff, comfortable stay

United KingdomWe do not have satnav, finding the hotel was a problem. Google map was not easy to work out . A call to the hotel itself was not much help either , eventually found the hotel but its signage was partly obscured by low hanging branches of a tree . We also had to duck under the branch to and from the hotel. We do realise it is a conservation area but the tree really does need cutting back a little. When booking the room it would have been helpful to know that the room was on the top floor and up several flights of stairs. Table service for breakfast was nice but we would have liked to choose from a menu, instead we had to ask what was on offer and its contents.
welcoming staff, car parking facility, clean and comfortable, beautiful dining room, lovely old building with character. The large tear off map pages of Bristol such a help and a great idea. Lovely staff only too happy to book our taxi for us. Happy and helpful housekeeping person . We really liked having 2 types of electric fans in our room. Our stay was peaceful and pleasant and beautifully situated for Clifton area which we really enjoyed.

United KingdomDangerous staircase at top. My partner would have fallen backwards had I not been there behind her . Breakfast was let down by poor service. She was grumpy and quite evidently very keen to end her shift. I had to knock on the kitchen door where they were both manically washing up, in order to get a second cup of coffee
Comfortable and homely, in a grand setting

United KingdomAs listing building, no lift, with very steep stairs to the second floor. Although the hotel accepts dogs, it is not ideal for dogs as access to the room was difficult with a small pet. Would not recommend it if you are bringing pets. Parking is small and not guaranteed, and you are asked to leave your car all day rather than driving in and out.
Location in Clifton Village is good. The hotel is a listing building, wi the plenty on character and well serviced.

United KingdomWe didn’t stay in the main building we were next door in their sister building which was a little disappointing as we were not informed of this at time of booking, so if it had of been raining it would not have been pleasant having to walk next door for breakfast which was a little disappointing regarding the choices: eg: no cereals, limited toast, no Honey, Very very limited choices. But what we did have was ok, average.
The Hotel has a lovely location very convenient for getting into the City Centre on the local buses & a lovely walk through the green to Clifton Village. Very good location.
