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 KingdomAt first this was going to be out go to hotel for future trips, it is amazing, but the walls to the rooms are paper thin, our neighbours got back at 2.30am and the walls were so thin we could hear every word of their conversation, which was just normal talking, it was like there was nothing between the rooms at all, were even kept awake by the snoring in the next room, that's how little soundproofing there was. Floorboards from above creaked a lot too. So hotel is fantastic and so were staff, just don't expect much sleep as there is 0 sound proofing in the rooms. Unfortunately we won't use again or recommend
Hotel location and grounds ate amazing, staff were fantastic and helpful too

United KingdomThe breakfast was very good. The rooms were a little shabby in appearance but clean and comfortable. The bar and reception area was very smart. The grounds surrounding the hotel were very impressive and a perfect place to take your dog. The hotel is very good value and I thoroughly enjoyed my experience there.

United KingdomBath only with a shower head - ok for us but wouldn’t be easy for someone less mobile. Some areas needed better cleaning - black behind taps and carpet didn’t seem like it had been hoovered.
Great value for money. Lovely view from the room, comfy bed. Staff accommodating and the breakfast had a good selection (nice to freshly order hot choice and oat milk). Nice tea tray and biscuits in the room.

SpainBreakfast from 7-9 seemed very early for a vacation. Would be perfect if it was until 10. Also the coffee machine wasnt turned on in the morning so I couldnt have a real coffee for breakfast. Only (I assume) instant which wasn’t very nice

United KingdomRoom was very small, but the bigest issue was bathroom, bad smell, mould, dirt, cobwebs with spiders, cracked sink. We left one night earlier, because we wanted to take a shower in a clean bathroom. There was nobody to talk with about it. I really dont mind old and dated hotels, but its doesnt have to mean dirt and mould, that l was able to clean with wet wipe.
Great location, we had two dogs with us so it was owsome that they could run free.

United KingdomOnly a couple of minor issues which we did feedback to staff who were appreciative . We would have preferred to have blackout curtains in the room. Plus the basin taps and the shower dial were stiff. This could present problems for guests with mobility issues.
The hotel itself is beautiful , set in stunning surroundings.

United KingdomThe place is a little run down in areas and our room had a few minor issues. The toilet seat slid around a bit, the remote control for the tv did not work even after being supplied with new batteries. The design on the windows meant when fully opened, it knocked off the curtains. The place could do with being hoovered and dusted better. All of this to us was quite minor, so it would not deter us from returning.
The staff are very friendly and very helpful. The building is lovely and the surrounding gardens and views were fabulous. The evening meal was delicious and there was lots of good choice at breakfast, which again was very good. Our room had air conditioning which was great because it was very warm during our stay. The place was also very quite. There is plenty of parking. It is only a short walk through the church and over the bridge in to Crickhowel. We would be very happy to return.

United KingdomBed was not very comfortable and whoever had hoovered did not do the far side of the bed where there were large dust balls. My dog spread them around the room! Also there was a large puddle in the ensuite probably from the shower.
Lovely location and great for my dog as there is a large grassy area with orchard and large terrace with seating. Nice old building with rustic entrance hall and bar area. Had breakfast in the conservatory. Good choice of cooked breakfasts.

United Kingdomthe evening meal quality needs to be better quality, more care in it's preparing, dry mash potatoes with bits of peel and what looked like a shop bought value pie and very little side veg only green beans and a sprig of very salty broccoli, veg is an easy to prepare win for any plate, and more choice.
Everything was as described and expected, value for money room with a very good breakfast, a nice quiet location with a superb walk along the canal and back through the most delightful quiet village, friendly staff.

United KingdomMy room, room 10 probably wasn't their best room. It had the feel of something that was cobbled together at the last minute. Bit cramped, sockets inconveniently placed, shower head needed replacing, ironing board never had a proper cover. Bit tatty. Nothing serious. Maybe because I was a single male staying one night. Breakfast decent but portion size needs to increase 30%. Fruit was a bit limp and I had to ask for hotter coffee. From my perspective, the staff were eager to please. The devil is in the detail and although my constructive observations were minor, for a place of this stature the management need to up their game a bit. A beautiful place, I would return.
The country setting is second to none, quite beautiful. The building is welcoming and feels like a country manor. The young staff try hard to provide a good service.
