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.).

United KingdomNothing apart from maybe being offered brown or white toast for breakfast but I am being very picky!!
The location was perfect for us, off a main road but quiet. Breakfast was superb and our host went the extra mile to make sure we were looked after in every aspect. The lodge was warm and cozy and very comfortable.

We loved our stay at Lyonshall Lodge, to break up our journey to Wales. Isabelle was the perfect host, and was very kind to my son, taking the time to chat with him (he does like to talk!), and even gave him some biscuits. She also provided us with plates for the picnic food we had brought with us. The bed was comfy, the shower lovely, and breakfast was plentiful and cooked perfectly! I was grateful for the tea and coffee facilities in the room. Great value for money!

United KingdomOur overnight stay at the Lyonshall Lodge was amazing. We were blown away with the size of the lodges, once inside there really is plentiful space. The host Isabelle is fantastic in every way, she really cannot do enough for her clients and definitely goes over and above for all. The location, lodge, service and the atmosphere in the area really did surpass our expectations! It’s 10/10 all around! We stayed here for one night ahead of the Royal Welsh show 2024, which was very pleasant. During the evening the weather was beautiful, which we took advantage of by sitting on the balcony furniture, viewing the sunset with a little picnic, watching the world go by! The breakfast options were amazing, more than big enough portions (even for the biggest of eaters). The breakfast (cooked or continental) is pre-booked the evening before and delivered into your lodge (onto the dining table) at a pre-arranged time. Again, the food and service were both faultless! We would definitely recommend this lovely little gem to anybody who’s looking to escape for a few nights away. We will definitely be back!! 😎

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike. There was a little traffic noise but nothing distracting or that would disturb sleep.
Beautiful location, close to Kington and its takeaways, restaurants and shops where the locals were helpful and friendly. Isabelle couldn’t have been more welcoming and accommodating. All instructions were very clear regarding how to find the place, check in and out times, and there was lots of flexibility. The room was clean and comfortable and had a lovely basket of goodies. I slept incredibly well. A delicious full English breakfast was brought to my room in the morning at an arranged time. I would definitely return if I was in the area. A lovely stay.
