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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 KingdomLock box was a little difficult to get into when we arrived but we were able to get the key out. We just couldn't open it again to put it back in before leaving. Two keys are provided, which we left in the property when we checked-out, so no issues. I am not good with opening lock boxes though, so it might have been how I was trying to open it making it more difficult for myself!
Excellent location, very close to shops, pubs, restaurants and the main centre of Lyndhurst (all within very close walking distance), very quiet road. The property was spotless and everything was catered for in the kitchen, bathrooms, etc. I would definitely recommend this property to others. Angela (one of the property owners) couldn't have been more helpful, no matter my question. Nothing was too much trouble.

United KingdomIt s difficult really to think of anything we did not like. Everything a family need is present. Our thanks to Angela & Rob. We will be back. We love the New Forest and Spire View is the perfect place to stay.
An Excellent property, clean, in amazing condition, (3 Years old) Everything you needed is present. We had no issues what so ever. Our ensuite was immaculate. The bathroom exactly the same. Private parking outside the front door. The folder provided by the owner contains massive amount of information which one needs. Finally - I could go on - there is even, three smart bins for the correct different items for waste. Oh, also a welcome pack including Honey, A bottle of Apple Juice and some shortbread biscuits.

United KingdomPublic transport is limited to a P6 bus which is only hourly and stops at 18.00 hours. Shame as seemed popular.
Spire View is a warm, cosy and comfortable apartment; equipped to meet all needs. A short walk takes you into Lyndhurst where we found a range of lovely independent shops, cafes, tea shops, restaurants and pubs. The hosts were excellent going out of their way to make our stay perfect, including adding some tasteful Christmas decorations; a thoughtful and welcoming gesture. Would definitely recommend Spire View and Lyndhurst for a visit to New Forest.

United KingdomThe only thing we were surprised at was there wasn't a shower screen in the main bathroom. It didn't stop us showering but we were just worried about getting the floor wet. However, if your careful you don't :). There really isn't anything else. We loved it and would definitely go back.
Great location for the New Forest but also Lyndhurst itself. Just a 3 min walk into the centre which has so much choice of cafes, restaurants and boutiques. If you want to cook yourself there a Tesco, co-op and independent shops for groceries.
