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.).

Down stairs of the there is a bar and a bistrot, that are really nice! The guest is very friendly and corteous. We loved staying there.

United KingdomMy room was on the same side as a Pub and that got noisy as weather was good & people were drinking outside the Pub .
Very friendly and welcoming staff, room very comfortable & clean. I ate in the Bistro 1 night and the food was delicious …. It’s in a great location right at the top of Catherine Hill in Frome.

United KingdomStairs. Room was on top floor 3 flights up. Flat screen TV too small for the room. We are asked if we wanted the room to be serviced, for the price this should be a given. Bed was made and bin emptied (no need for either) but the towels weren't changed even though we left them on the floor (usual signal to change them).
Breakfast menu was a little limited. Booking.com suggested that the breakfast was £9.75 fixed price extra. It wasn't and B.c need to sort out their website.

United KingdomParking for cars is on a first come first serve basis. I was lucky the first night but not so the second. Had to park on the road (not a problem) but the space was for permit holders and car had to be moved by 9am .
Private, comfortable and stylish.

United KingdomEarly confusion over booking was annoying.
We had the most positive help from the bar man at the Bistro, who tried to sort out which room we were to have. There was some confusion about our booking, and the first room had not been cleaned, so he arranged for another room which was perfect. He was calm, helpful, and courteous, despite having to leave the busy bar to sort us out - a real star. Breakfast was good, bed superb.

United KingdomThe breakfasts were delicious and it was lovely and relaxing just to walk downstairs into the welcoming bistro. The staff were very friendly both at breakfast and in the evening. We had a very good dinner at Bistro Lotte and would definitely recommend both the restaurant and the accommodation .We had a great weekend and came home feeling very relaxed.

United KingdomLack of toilet brush in bathroom. Breakfast started relatively late (9am), especially for people traveling with young families.
Breakfast was very good although it would have been nice to have one or two more cooked options to set you up for the day. Very clean bathroom and nice, soft sheets.

United KingdomDifficult to find anywhere to park - we did eventually get a place but then were reluctant to go out in our car because we’d lose it. But I appreciate it’s a problem with Frome in general, not just at Bistro Lotte. Stairs to the room are steep - but I appreciate there’s not much can be done about that.
Very comfortable room. Big, very comfortable bed. Real coffee in the bedroom. Shower very good. Shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, hand wash and hand sanitiser in the bathroom were all really gorgeous. Lovely, lovely restaurant with fabulous food and a genuine “French” feeling, which was very nice. Very friendly staff.

United KingdomNothing not to like really.. If I was being super picky, I think the room would have benefitted from a couple of prints on the walls to complement the overall look, and maybe a box of tissues would have been nice in the bedroom.
Very central location, wonderful comfy bed and excellent shower. Nice touch to have fresh milk in the room. The room was above the restaurant but very quiet. Food in the restaurant was excellent so I would recommend eating there. They also have a few parking spots up the road, which was an added bonus.

United KingdomWiFi provision was very poor. None of us could connect. The room guide led us to expect this difficulty, but these days it should be better, we thought. Booking.com's room description is inaccurate. We spoke to the owner direct about this.
Breakfast options were ideal and the quality of both food and drinks was excellent. Our room (family room) was spacious and very comfortable. Beds and bed linen good quality. Bathroom facilities very good. Great shower, toiletries, generous-size towels, instant hot water. The bistro was exceptional.

United KingdomThe only problem we had was the parking as this is a bit limited.
We loved Bistro Lotte. The room was spotless the bed lovely and snuggly. The food was fabulous we ate at Bistro Lotte on the first evening and my husband said he had the best steak he has ever eaten.The hotel itself is only a stones throw from the centre of Frome just at the top of St Catherine’s Hill where you walk down into the gorgeous town.
