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 KingdomNothing could have been better, but perhaps a slow and quiet close on the bedroom doors could maybe be fitted as I felt they slammed shut if left to close on their own.
The Inn is a little gem, situated in a beautiful location. All staff were very friendly and took time to make us feel very welcome. We ate in the bar area for dinner and the food was absolutely delicious. Breakfast was served in the restaurant and everything you could wish for was available. The rooms were beautifully furnished and very comfortable.

The Black Horse Inn is family run and has a lovely atmosphere. We arrived towards the end of a very busy service of Sunday Lunch but received a warm welcome and were shown to our room. There is a horse racing theme to the rooms which was fun. The room was charming and very comfy with high class projects and a welcome curly-wurly! Dinner was exceptional. We both had roasts which were so tasty and the beef was some of the best I've ever eaten. Breakfast was very tasty and with plenty of choice. All the staff are very friendly and you are made to feel both important to them as a guest and almost greeted as an old friend. There is a lovely village to stroll round and it would be a very good centre to explore this part of the world with some super countryside and interesting towns. The Black Horse is exceptional--I so look forward to a return visit.

United KingdomNothing. The only gripe was the instant coffee machine, i couldnt get it to work. Which could have been easily rectified if i had spoken to the cleaners or front of house. But i wasnt in need of a coffee that bad so it slipped my mind.
The food was exceptional, all of it! From the bread at breakfast to the burger at dinner. All of the staff were lovely and they seemed genuinely interested in what we had to say. The room was quirky and the location was out of this world. We had a walk up and down the village and felt like we were back home in the Cotswolds (ish, between the dales and the moors we felt extra countrified)
