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 KingdomWe stayed in the McMillan suite, the bed is extremely loud to the extent that it wakes you up turning over in the night. It's a beautiful looking bed and very comfortable but very loud, squeaky and creaks with a small movement, it needs tightening up, the floor above was also extremely noisy just walking around but it's so squeaky, our whole room was the same. The floor boards need something done to them as from 6am the people upstairs were walking around and it was so loud it woke me and my husband, I'm a heavy sleeper but did not sleep well due to the noise. The shower was either freezing cold or boiling hot there was no in the middle temperature. More than Half the sockets in the room couldn't be used as weren't British, there was more American style sockets than British. Downstairs the hotel looked amazing but upstairs where the rooms were very tired looking, carpets very worn, door frames needed painting.
It's a beautiful hotel and the staff in the restaurant were fantastic. We stayed here for a wedding and the staff were so accommodating and friendly. The grounds are beautiful and so is the hotel, I'd highly recommend staying here, very good value for money.

United KingdomWe booked a room in the courtyard/annex, which I guess used to be the servants quaters back in the day? No idea. Anyway, the room was very big which was nice and the shower/bathroom was also big. You access the building via a door code and I saw no staff in the annex, but assume they are concentrated in the main building. There are multiple overflow car parks so even if it looks full at the front you can find more spaces in the woody area by the annex. We walked around the grounds and saw the cows, which was a big plus. However, for the price this was a rip off, paid the price per night of a luxury hotel and this wasn't it.

United KingdomParts of the property are quite worn and need upgrading. I found the beds very hard and uncomfortable. Some of the public areas needed better cleaning - parts of the bar area needed a good dust. Behind Reception looked really dirty and shabby. My safe wouldn’t work and I was just told the batteries were probably flat. Hardly any toilet paper in room initially. Small niggles but not what you expect in a former very prestigious hotel. Large off -putting stain beside bed. Windows difficult to open and close. Window in original room dirty and mouldy and only opened from the bottom on to grass and woods - so I was too nervous to have the window open.
Great location for my needs. I was unhappy with my room because of security issues and was upgraded to a better room at no extra cost which was very much appreciated. The waitresses in particular were just great, helpful, smiley and warm.

United KingdomThe food offering at the restaurant left a lot to be desired - we both had steak and it was very chewy and tough - not very edible. Also it was a massive reduction from the menu on the website which was a disappointment. Also the breakfast service seemed quite disjointed. We ordered our breakfast and saw hot food continuously coming out for guests that arrived well after us and received attitude from staff when we asked about where our food was. Would have also loved more healthy options with fresh fruit and vegetables both on the dinner menu as well as at bbreakfast.
Really appreciated the state of the rooms and the comfort level - rooms were very large and well kept as well as clean. Location was really nice in regards to proximity to the beach as well as the Nairn train station.

CanadaBeing an old hotel, some things were in need of a re-fresh, everything was functional.
Beautiful country house hotel in a large park. Our room (I think it was 102) in the oldest part of the hotel was large and had a beautiful view of the ocean in the distance. Excellent staff. Loved the Scottish cows in the pasture.

Courtyard rooms obviously old but cobwebs in the windows and lots of insects when we opened one. Think if were opened and cleaned on a regular basis would make room look better
