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 KingdomComing home! The only constructive criticism (and this wasn't a problem at all) is the dressing table in room 3 could have been even more perfect if there was a make up mirror to use whilst sitting down. The bathroom mirror was fine for this purpose however.
Expertly refurbished and decorated. Super friendly staff. Free upgrade on room. First visited this hotel over 20yrs ago, before it closed down for a few years. The whole hotel has been wonderfully restored, the details are exquisite. Complete hats off to the interior designer of this Hotel! All details in the room and around the Hotel and grounds are immaculate. Our room was stunning and had the bathroom of dreams......the toiletries are of the best quality and loved the touch of Bath salts being available for an indulgent soak. The atmosphere of a high quality countryside hotel has been kept, with highly professional friendly staff and details such as Hunter Wellingtons, Umbrella and maps to borrow if you are off for a walk around the estate. Sunday lunch in Eyas was delicious! The evening receptionist really made us feel comfortable whilst enjoying our glass of wine infront of the fire and we had a lovely chat with her about how the hotel had changed over the years. The surroundings are beautiful, so peaceful and quiet. Well worth a visit, spoil yourselves.

United KingdomThe evening reception experience could have been more efficient and welcoming. Check out was much better
On several nights a week the evening food was limited to bar food. Although we knew this we found the choice limited and also not great, such as the breaded chicken was thin on chicken. Breakfast was lovely and the decor very soothing. A lot of attention to detail.

United KingdomI liked the fact the pictures of the property didn’t disappoint. Our rooms were as seen in the pictures and even more cosy than we expected. Having the joining door in between our rooms was also really nice. The property is also in a very nice area and felt like a home away from home. Breakfast was great and everyone was really nice and friendly. We definitely enjoyed our stay.
