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 KingdomWe did not book a breakfast but decided to have one. It was £16 each and very poor value for money. This is because the selection was poor, which was because the staff advised me that a delivery had not arrived which meant a limited selection which included the pastry selection which was only pain au chocolate and croissant and the croissant was already filled with jam which were rubbery and not nice. The cooked selections were not much better because it was dried out and had stood for a long time plus the coffee was dreadful the water was too hot meaning the coffee was bitter. I explained all of this to the receptionist but we still had to pay the full price which was a disappointment particularly because their normal delivery for breakfast did not arrive plus the other issues we had. I would recommend the hotel although it was pricey for what it was although it was clean and the staff were nice. However I would definitely avoid the breakfast and go elsewhere.
The property overall was very good

The room configuration that was promised on Booking.com wasn’t available but the hotel staff promptly remedied it with another solution. Beautifully handled. Also the staff recommended a wonderful Pub for dinner that involved a stunning walk through the village and across the lock. Excellent local suggestion that made our stay.

United KingdomBeds where made of of 2 singles zipped together which makes for an uncomfortable join in the middle of the bed and sleepless night.
It was clean, well looked after. Bedroom was as expected. The hotel had a nice bar area to chill in but we didn’t try the restaurant food. I like the location not too far from a nice river walk.

United KingdomThe only thing we had a little gripe about was the tap in the bathroom (room 101). My wife has arthritis in her hands and found the tap rather stiff, especially as that is a disability room. We did mention it to reception. But that was our only niggle.
Everything was superb. The reception staff were exceptional, as were those in the dining room, and the breakfast room. A special mention for Tenzi here. All in all, nothing but praise for every one and every thing. Thank you for two wonderful days.
