Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThe parking situation was an issue. We have a large car, so parked in the rear car park which is up a very steep slope. This isn't a problem if you're fit and healthy but my partner has blocked arteries in his leg so really struggled walking up to the car. If we'd known where the car park was we would have booked somewhere else.
We had the double room with a balcony and it was great to be able to sit out on the balcony. Our bed was bigger than a double, which was a bonus and it was very comfortable. The hotel is in a great location, very close to the cliff railway. Even though the hotel is on the main road it's very quiet at night and we slept really well. I would recommend the fresh fruit salad with natural yogurt for breakfast. Good hosts, particularly Jane who is very friendly.

United KingdomWasn't anything we didn't like, the bed was a bit firm for us, but we do like soft beds so that is purely personal preference, still slept perfectly well and wasn't uncomfortable considering this.
The location is perfect, close enough for walking distance to anywhere you'd want to visit, we hadn't been away since covid so we were a bit wary with my partner being high risk, but we felt very safe and clean in the room and the owners respected that we kept the sign up for no one to go in to clean while we were out to minimise contact which we appreciated very much as we were only there for 2 nights. We did bump into the owners on check out, they were very friendly (including Peanut the dog) I would definitely recommend and would definitely come back.

United KingdomNothing really, a minor thing only -the shower was quite small (but very clean) and it was a tad tight getting dried in the space available.
In the centre of Lynton, with parking , close to shops, restaurants and local walks. Our room on the second floor overlooked the garden which was rather unkempt but in no way detracted from the beautiful decoration and furnishings in our room. Breakfast was freshly cooked to order with many choices. The fruit salad was especially yummy - a favourite of mine when I am away. This was our 3rd stay at the property and we hope to return again in the future.

United KingdomThe driveway wasn't really suitable for our motorbikes and the slope was making it difficult to park safely and to turn around, so although the property was in a good location, I would probably not choose this again if we were travelling on the bikes again.
Central location, hosts really nice, and breakfasts very good.

Fabulous break in stunning North Devon. The hosts Jane & Charlie were extremely accommodating and friendly as was their adorable little dog Peanut. They really went the extra mile and were able to offer me a gluten free breakfast which was delicious and very much appreciated. Perfect location as a base to discover the North Devon coast. During our stay we visited Woolacombe, the Lynton & Lynmouth area and Dunster Castle. The balcony in one of our rooms was a real added bonus too. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Will definitely be back! Thanks guys.
