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 KingdomFrom our perspective, it was all fine.
A good, historic property in a beautiful village. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We were made to feel very welcome. If Hawkshead was easier to get to by public transport, we'd be back within weeks.

United Kingdomthe smell in my room. the radiator had and is leaking for some time and nothing was done about it.the carpet was wet through around the pipework and i put a towel over it to mask the smell but to no avail. the room was very basic, a bit taty but put up with it for my short stay.
it was the only public house that was open.the Queens Head was under refurbishment, the Sun Boutique and Lounge was not trading and the Kings Arms was shut due to up and coming renovations. there was a good crowd in at night but if there are no other pubs to go to,it is obviously going to be busy.

United KingdomAlthough comfortable, the bedroom we stayed in (room 5) was extremely small and much smaller than other rooms on the same floor. It was adequate for two nights but we wouldn’t want to stay in it for longer. The bathroom was too small for a hand basin which was placed in a corner of the bedroom (making bedroom space even smaller). Nowhere to hang or store clothes and we had to move bags around when going in and out of the bathroom because of limited space. Check the size of the room before booking as our friends, who paid the same, were allocated a much bigger room!
Cosy, traditional inn in the centre of Hawkshead. Good breakfast with a choice of cooked options and also cereals and croissants. Friendly and helpful staff. Good supply of tea, coffee and biscuits in the bedroom. Comfortable bed and great blackout curtains.

United KingdomIt was unfortunate there were no evening/pub meals but this is a temporary situation I believe. It could do with a bit of facelift inside but again that will probably change with new owner.
It’s a traditional old pub in middle of Hawkshead which we love. The business in process of handover to new owner but Steve - temp manager - was amazing. There were no pun measly unfortunately but the breakfasts were excellent and Steve was Chef/waiter/bar staff/room service etc - all of which he carried out with aplomb
