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 KingdomThe rooms had no air-conditioning. It was very warm during our stay, which made it slightly uncomfortable during the night.
Very clean environment; comfortable beds; the food was excellent and the rooms were very modern.

United KingdomRoom 22 did not have a bedside table nor lamp on one side. So had to use phone torch to access bathroom in the night. There was also a trip hazard next to the bed (with no light). The lighting was also poor in the corner and the bathroom door would be far better if it opened out and not in to the bathroom.
Location and the food, decoration, and the lounge accommodation are fantastic

BelgiumPersonally, the staff can be a little too "blunt", and lack the personal skills you find in other hotels - sorry guys! This is the only small complaint, the rest is absolutely outstanding!
Amazing location, really amazing!

United KingdomBed should have been larger or if possible twins as my husband has recently had a serious hip operation , I have a serious knee problem and we are both old, he is 90. There were other minor problems with the room we reported to the staff.
All food was excellent, lounges and dining areas excellent, bedroom excellent except bed much too small. Staff all welcoming and helpful

PolandThe whole atmosphere and staff are quite stiff. Probably this is an advantage for most of its customers but for us this was a buzz kill. Also, a bar could use a good barman/barmaid (I don't why but we were given very cold service). The only other pub in village has very short hours or is closed on some days. Wifi was quite slow.
Amazing location, amazing views, and the right spot for multiple hiking trips.

AustraliaWe had to leave too soon!
We received a very warm welcome at Borrowdale Gates Hotel. The staff there were marvellous … helpful, attentive and knowledgable. A couple of suggestions that were made we would never have found on our own. We loved the comfortable bar area overlooking the fields at the back of the hotel.

United KingdomPart of the issue with an older property is that sometimes the layout isn't logical. We did find it a bit of a maze using the stairs for the first time. Also on a personal note I found the public rooms too hot.
The location was beautiful, also such a good idea to put bird feeders outside the restaurant window. Kept lots of diners occupied. Breakfast was very nice , although on our last day our order was totally confused.
