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 KingdomDid not realise it was dog friendly but no big issue. Need to make it plain that you need to add the hotel name to the Sat Nav address prior to arrival no point telling you after you have travelled half way around Dorset due to your Sat Nav going haywire as happened to us..!
House breakfast was superb and well cooked, set you up for the day. Staff spot on. Evening meals of a very high standard and you could eat anywhere in the hotel.

United KingdomI feel I was massively overcharged by booking.com for the rooms. £160 is London hotel rates. My fault for not checking the contract thoroughly. I won’t be using them again. If I had booked with the hotel direct I could have saved several hundred pounds for my family. Lesson learned.
The location and building was a great wow factor. The staff we excellent and the general standard was first class.

United KingdomThere wasn't anything major to dislike, there seemed to be a big party of guests there for the same function who were a bit noisy 🤔, & the door to the corridor, where my room was, kept banging at all hours, because they weren't very considerate! That's not the fault of the hotel, but maybe something that could be addressed!?
Nice hotel, but I know now that you really need a car as it's a bit out of the way. The evening meal I had on the 1st night was very good value for money, the portion was huge. The staff were helpful & friendly but a bit young & inexperienced at times. Being in the hospitality industry myself, I appreciate that that would improve given time.

United KingdomMy friend and I had a twin room it was a little small for the price. As the weather was good we were out a lot so it didn't matter that much - but if it had been raining or cold there was nowhere to sit in comfort in the room. The residents lounge is small - admittedly we could have sat in the bar but that's not the same.
Food - especially the breakfast was excellent. Lovely garden to sit out in as we had good weather. Friendly and efficient staff with good local knowledge.
