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 mechanism on the key box was quite stiff, maybe some WD40 or oil is needed to make it easier to open the lock box.
The location is great and there is a parking space which is rare in the centre of Glastonbury.

United KingdomThe only down side would be the lighting as the flat was quite dark in the day time even with the blinds up but it was grey out side so this would have impacted.
The location was central & the little touches of milk & bread were a nice little welcome. The bed was comfortable & cozy. The property was quiet with no noise from neighbours or the outside.

United KingdomI would have liked a bigger sofa to slouch on, but that is just me. the two seated one was comfortable and good for the size of the room. I would have welcomed knowing the door code before leaving home (and my internet) but connections in town are reasonable if going to a cafe so did get it successfully.
The flat was recently decorated and was really comfy. Bed was extremely snuggly. The kitchen was really generously kitted out with foil and commonly needed items such as oil and salt\pepper as well as extra items such as biscuits, jam, bread and milk for our arrival. Lovely extra touches. The shampoo was lovely and the added detail of Christmas tree and winter body wash kept me feeling in the season!

United Kingdom99.5% nearly perfect place. The remaining 5% is a very minor issue: It's a bit dodgy getting to the car parking area at night. Slippery walk path with leaves and unripened figs under foot in nearly complete darkness, with a few steps at the end to add to the challenge; wear flat shoes and sharpen-up your Ninja skills.
This is such a beautiful and comfortable place. Perfect location and attentive operators. I felt welcomed and instantly at home. I highly recommend the Fig Tree Flat.

United KingdomEverything was lovely and comfortable. Maybe, as an small improvement, I would suggest a coffee table by the sofa, were to place drink or nibbles while watching TV or reading.
Lovely flat with very new furniture and beautifully decorated. Well located in the heart of the town with off street parking. The bed was comfortable and cosy, just what we needed after a week camping. The welcome pack was generous and a nice touch, with lots of choice for different coffee and tea, bread and cereal, and even some soft drinks! We didn't cook but there was plenty of crockery to do so. The shower pressure was good too and the towels fluffy and fresh. The host was friendly and welcoming and she runs the barbers shop below, so we had a bit of pampering done too, that was very handy.

FranceEverything. The owner of the property who was very helpful. The decor of the property is in a class of its own. The facilities are spot on and everything was so clean and tidy.. ideally placed to the town centre, say a 2 minute walk but quiet at night. We parked the car upon arrival and never used it again till we left. We are walkers but even those who are not would find everything on the doorstep. Wouldn't think twice about staying there again.

An upstairs flat above a barber shop which has been renovated to a high spec, any visitor couldn't ask for more. Short walk and you are in the heart of Glastonbury . Highly recommend 'fig tree' as a place to stay.
