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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

I cannot say enough good things about this lovely B&B - from the kind and helpful proprietors and staff, the stunning sea views, the decor, comfort and cleanliness, to every detail, big and small. Truly one of the nicest hotels we’ve ever stayed in, and we travel a lot.

United StatesEverything about the stay at Dungallan was incredible, from our welcoming and friendly hosts, to the comforts and style of our accommodations, the resplendent whisky bar, the outrageously beautiful view of Oban and the nearby islands, the delicious and varied breakfast offerings…I could go on forever. If you are traveling to Oban and can spare the luxury, stay here.

United KingdomWe've just come back from a short trip to Dungallan Country House, and we had the best time. We were looking for a relaxing few days away and that's exactly what we got. Kirsty, Simon and the team couldn't have been nicer and nothing was too much trouble. The facilities, from room to bar Anne breakfast were first class We will definitely be coming back and the photos don't do justice to the amazing views. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.

United StatesThere was nothing about this place or host/staff that we didn't like.
We liked absolutely EVERYTHING about this place and the beautiful hosts! Our room was small but VERY nice and also came along with snacks and sweets. The location was on a hillside with a BEAUTIFUL view of the water and the grounds were nicely decorated with ample room to sit/lounge without feeling crowded. The breakfast was to die for! Cooked to order as if you are at a 5* restaurant! The entire place has high quality decorating and has been lovingly restored and cared for by the hosts. I highly recommend!

Exceptional breakfast from fruits and cereal to a fresh home cooked breakfast of your choice served to you at the table. Hosts go over and above to make your stay comfortable, good local knowledge for walking and eating out. Can not recommend this stately home enough, we will definitely return.
