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 fan outside, probably for the kitchen was REALLY noisy, but thankfully it stopped by 10pm. The room was very hot ...not because of heating, I think it was simply that it had been a hot day. We found a fan in the wardrobe and that helped a bit.
The bedroom and bathroom were exquisite. It was spotless, and furnished beautifully. The food and service was lovely. Ample parking and well located for those travelling to or from Scotland from the south, it was exactly half way! The bonus for us, was driving into the Dales at night to watch a spectacular show of the Aurora Borealis!

United KingdomOnly negative would be the temp in the room we were in was a little high for us, but a minor blemish ( we didn’t speak to mgt about it - but had we, I am sure they would have done everything they could to resolve)
Everything was spotless, loved the decor, breakfast was yummy . We ate in the restaurant one night - food was very delicious and reasonable . Well worth a try.

United KingdomNothing really, just a point to note is that the pub is located on a main road, perfect for us as it was easy for our onward journey.
Excellent stay at the Plough Inn. The pub is absolutely lovely. We had a very warm welcome and everyone went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable. We had a delicious meal in the bar area (we had our dog with us so not in the restaurant) . The menu was varied and our food was excellent in quality and perfect sized portions. Our room was comfortable and elegantly decorated with a large bathroom. Lovely toiletries to enjoy as I soaked in the freestanding bath tub! Thank you to all the staff especially Robert for the warm welcome, the evening waiter (sorry we didn’t catch your name) and Lianne who was the perfect breakfast host!

United KingdomThis is nothing the hotel can actually control, but is just anecdotal feedback on our stay. The guests in the room above us were incredibly loud and "heavy-footed". At times it felt like they were in the room with us. I'm sure this is only an issue due to the age of the building, however, it did interrupt my wife's sleep several times through the night.
Location easily accessible from the motorway and in a prime spot for visiting pretty much anywhere you'd like in the Lake District. Friendly welcome from the team and great food.

United KingdomNoise travels through the building (it's an older building), so if you're staying under another room you may hear them throughout your stay.
The room we stayed in was great; my partner and I stayed with our dog and there was plenty of space. The bathroom was beautiful (especially the stand alone bath). Staff were helpful and breakfast was really good too.

What a find! We'd just completed a Scotland road trip and didn't want to stay in a Travelodge on the way back (as we did on the way up) and saw a room free here. This will become our go to place for a mid way stop, it's just off the motorway, but set in beautiful countryside so we could take our dog for lovely walks. Staff were attentive and friendly, the room was incredible, the most spacious one we've had our whole two week trip, and the bathroom was huge! We had dinner and breakfast there and both were delicious. Really dog friendly, and just so laidback and chilled. After dinner, we moved to the bar and played board games until it was time for bed, which was really comfortable. It was a shame we only stayed the one night!
