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 Kingdomeverything - beds very comfy very clean and the bedding smelt amazing I've stayed in Glastonburyany many times and this is definitely the best one . and the breakfast was delicious.
we loved this place so much so I will be booking again - staff super friendly and the house and it's contents are another level full of historical things . amazing pictures books and all sorts of treasure that we were warmly invited to use . I loved the idea that it's full of a person collection of occultism and the new owners have treated them respectfully. you definitely don't have to be into occultism to love and enjoy the treasures and the vibe of the house is so warm and welcoming X ps pics don't do it justice

Another amazing stay at the Covenstead. This time, we stayed in the handfasting room as we had our own handfasting ceremony in Glastonbury during our stay. Once again, we received a warm welcome and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We can't wait to visit again in the future.

United KingdomThere was quite a lot of traffic noise. I’m guessing the building is listed so double glazing wouldn’t be an option. It got a lot quieter during sleeping hours.
From the minute I entered the front door I just kept saying WOW. No point describing the decor, you just have to experience it. Tony and all of the staff were so helpful and friendly. Breakfast was incredible.

United KingdomThere isn't anything I didn't like!
The Covenstead is a unique experience which delves into the history or witchcraft and magic! The rooms are beautifully decorated as is the entire hotel, even the stairwells have so much to look at! The Breakfast room is beyond luxurious and has a very gothic feel, and the breakfast was first rate! I've stayed before here and no doubt will stay again, I actually love this hotel, its by far the best most interesting hotel I've ever stayed at! You will love it!!

United StatesI was concerned that my witch wound would be activated ( burned at the stake in past life) but it wasn’t and it was actually healed in this beautiful conscious space & REMEMBERED the beauty of the craft/ womens sacred work.
The decor, books- so much to observe & enjoy. My room had lots & lots of fairies and the four archangels. I felt so safe & welcome and protected.

United KingdomAbsolutely loved our stay at The Covenstead. All the staff were super friendly, chatting about our stay, offering recommendations for our trip and so welcoming. The Covenstead is such a beautiful place to stay. The decorations are amazing & it was exactly the experience we were looking for whilst in Glastonbury. Our room was comfortable & the bathroom a great size with a bath & a seperate shower unit. The WiFi was brilliant. Everywhere was super clean. Nice to have a room downstairs to relax together in the evening and a kitchen area available to make hot drinks with another lounge area next door. Also a garden area to relax in too. So much thought has gone into this place to make the guests experience as nice as possible. The best bit was the breakfast - so many options to choose from & able to cater for Veggie & Gluten Free absolutely fine. Really nice and relaxed talking to the other guests over breakfast or you can read one of the many books available on the bookshelves or do some Tarot cards. I will definitely be returning here again. The best place I have ever stayed. Thank you to the team at The Covenstead for making it such a beautiful experience for guests.
