Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomWe asked for early check-in originally at an extra cost, but upon arrival our room was only half ready with used sheets and towels still on the floor. We were even an hour late to what we had originally stated so I imagine if we had arrived on time the room wouldn't have been ready at all which is a shame as everything else was really nice.
Nicely decorated room, spacious, lovely bathroom, comfy bed, good facilities and yummy breakfast.

United KingdomThe only one negative comment is that it is very noisey throughout the night but as the pub is in the middle of the square it’s inevitable although problem solved as soon as I closed the window. I’m a light sleeper anyway so I’d imagine it might not be a problem for others.
I enjoyed everything about my stay. The staff were attentive and welcoming. The room was surprisingly perfect. It was clean, modern and very comfortable. It had everything you’d expect imcluding hairdryer, iron/ironing board, shower gel, shampoo/conditioner, electric fan and functioning TV. Unfortunately I didn’t stay for breakfast so cannot comment on the food. I wanted to extend my stay but unfortunately they couldn’t accommodate me. I will definitely return.

United KingdomYoung staff on reception, pleasant enough, but not very professional! We found the hotel locked and the bar shut when we arrived back at 10.25pm! It took over 5 mins for someone to answer the door bell!
Very comfortable room and modern bathroom with large shower. Every amenity catered for - tea and coffee making facilities, good hairdryer, toiletries, tissues and air-conditioning. Lovely full English breakfast.

United KingdomThe Breakfast was good, but the service was terrible. Unable to make scrambled egg, The milk was missing, No tea bags, until i asked for them. Another guest left, due to them waiting forever to be served. We had to call a number after 10pm to gain access to the rooms, which is something i haven't had to do for years.
The rooms were modern and clean and the hotel is central to town. Check in was straight forward and quick.

UKThere was a problem with the key machine so I had to keep going up and down stairs to check if the key was working (not good with bad knees). We had to bring our own bags back down to be left until things were sorted out. Although the room was exceptionally clean I found some kind of medical pill on a light fitting by the bed!
The room was small but very clean and tidy. Lots of extras included which was a wonderful surprise.

United KingdomBreakfast was very basic and several of the usual types of breakfast foods were unavailable, i.e. fruit and yoghurt. Apparently a delivery was late. We thought it would have been fairly easy to get some from a local supermarket as the hotel is situated in the centre of Aylesbury.
Room very stylishly decorated, lovely bathroom. Interesting old building with information about local history on display to add context.

United Kingdom1) The TV was fixed at the window end of the wall facing the bed and couldn't be adjusted (i.e. no push-out arm) so the only place I could watch it from was the edge of the bed on that side! 2) There was nowhere to hang the hand towel by the basin so I had to sort of 'drape' it over the basin or put it on the shelf above where there already was my stuff and the hotel-provided shower gel, spare toilet roll, etc., also there was nowhere to hang the bath towel near the shower and only a small heated towel ladder at the opposite end of the long bathroom which was hidden when door was open. 3) Sadly my room was on the top floor up several flights of stairs, which was a bit of a struggle, but as it is a listed building that can't be changed.
Room quite nice and properly cleaned, bed very comfortable, tea/coffee tray very good as included coffee bags as well as usual Nescafe 'tubes'. and delicious white choc chip cookies. Breakfast was good and staff friendly and helpful.

United KingdomNo dedicated car park, so worth noting that you will need to park in a public car park overnight. The hotel is on top of the ground-floor pub, although there was relatively little noise from that. There was some outside noise as a result of a food van parked up overnight serving food.
Very central location, rooms were modern and clean. The surrounding location was very nice, and there were a number of restaurants and bars nearby. It was convenient for us as we were only in town for one night.

United KingdomThe hotel was rather run down. Wallpaper was peeling off the walls with multiple patches of paint scuffed on the stairway leading up to the rooms. The room itself was really well presented although room 205 you can’t actually sit on the toilet seat without crushing your legs (I am a 5ft 5’ woman) so I did have to sit sidesaddle which was quite amusing.
Central location, reasonably priced. staff very friendly. Breakfast delicious

United KingdomIt’s a pub in the middle of town. Not somewhere I’d take the wife but perfectly adequate for a work overnighter. They actually cook your breakfast to order which for me is a big plus. Friendly, helpful staff.
