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.).

United KingdomThe breakfast was brilliant but... We got served avocado and Salmon on cheap sliced bread... Everything else was perfect but this was so out of place. There is nothing romantic about a cheap slice of toast. I went out of the hotel and there were chavs in tracksuits fighting in the bars so I abandoned my pint and went back to the hotel.
Great staff. Lovely spa.

United KingdomWhat I am about to write in no way dampened our experience but if I had to say anything negative our room was at the end of a corridor next to a big fire escape door which could be used to access the car park. Someone past 11:30pm used the door and it slammed disturbing us, same again at 6:20. So no lie in but we did get to use the spa before breakfast because of this. The decor in the room was a little outdated aswell, nice but it certainly didn't match the rest of the hotel which is beautiful. Weird scratch marked above the headboard (say no more 😬) Shower was good but doors very squeaky and loud to pull open and closed so maybe a little upgrade needed for that room. Because I booked through bookin.com I had to pay £15 extra to park in the car park. I knew this so not a problem (just forgot on the day) you could if you wanted just park on the street outside and that would save you the fee. But that is literally all I have.
The hotel was fabulous, set in lovely grounds, we sat and had a beer on the terrace before dinner which was lovely. The decor of the main hotel is really lovely, you actually have to walk around and have a look when you first get there. The dining room is just beautiful. The Spa! Had everything you need and more. A salt room, sauna, ice room, steam room (my favourite) a long pool with a selection of jacuzzi baths, stand up or sit down. Open until 9pm we actually got chance to chill out there after dinner. Bath robes and flip flops were provided for the spa too. They have an outside pool but it's being upgraded at the moment so it's currently closed off (may24) The food was amazing, my husband had fish and chips and I had moules and frites. We ate in the brasserie but you can choose the dining room which is a rosette experience. The staff were really lovely and friendly making you feel welcome. The room itself was clean and tidy and we had a door which led out to a little terrace where we could sit and have a cup of tea. Nice selection of drinks and because I mentioned it was my husband's birthday on the booking there was a balloon ties to a plate with 4 handmade chocolates on there waiting for him! Such a lovely touch! We have 2 children and this was the perfect place to get away for the evening and just be husband and wife. Something we aren't able to do very often! Only an hour from home it was the perfect distance away. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel to anybody and everybody!
