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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 bed in room 5 is regarded as a feature; it looks like something a Viking would sleep in! However it's massive and including the mattress must be at least 3 foot high. I'm 5ft 8in and found it a real struggle getting in and out of bed - we were given a step ladder to assist though that's not practical to use in the dark during the night. It did spoil the visit a little for me and was the one big negative but for two nights it was bearable. I would stay there again but request a room with a 'normal' bed. Also, a very minor issue, but for such an expensive hotel (and it's not cheap) I think there should be a toilet roll holder in the bathroom.
All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Room very nice and clean. Balcony with view out across the village (only 2 rooms have one). Hotel does have a small free car park and is located in the village centre so not far to walk anywhere to local shops, pubs, restaurants etc. Breakfast is buffet style with a varied selection so you have to serve yourself. The 'cooked' food was scrambled eggs, sausages mushrooms and tomatoes (so a bit minimal IMO) but the Cumberland sausages were fantastic!!

United KingdomThe parking could be a little awkward, it relied on everyone parking within the spaces so to allow the maximum number of guests to use the car park.
The facilities were excellent. It was well situated within the village.

United KingdomFrom before even arriving I was already Impressed with how well our needs were met ! The staff in particular a special thank you to John who was super efficient , friendly and knowledgeable. He made sure that our check in and arrival was smooth and went above and beyond to make our stay special. The entire property is impressive , clean and decorated in such a elegant way it really is a gem in such a stunning location close to everything you could possibly need for whatever your reason to visit ! We stayed in the suite which didn’t disappoint and came with a deep spa bath and shower in a spacious bathroom . Our bed was huge and super comfortable with delightful selection of pillows ! The room had such high ceilings and a lovely step up to a living area with vanity table , sofa , spacious wardrobe and set of drawers and additional tv to a large wall mounted tv opposite the humongous bed that had all your viewing needs already to sign in ! The fan heater came in handy on our stay as it was super hot but the room kept us and our dog adequately cool for the entire stay! On from the room leads out to a private patio area with hot tub and canopy ! The perfect way to end the day after a long walk in the stunning Grasmere and its neighbouring beauties. We came to kayak and had the most amazing time , a hot tub in a tropical rainstorm was a highlight I will lot forget in a hurry ! The breakfast selection is fresh , delicious and you’ll be happy to know if you’re not great at sticking to breakfast times that you can pop and get a plate and bring it to your room also ! That was a lovely way to start the day ! And utterly delicious ! Especially paired with a coffee from our coffee machine that came with such a great selection of tea and coffee! The little touches of spa robes and slippers really added to the experience and we will definitely return.
