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 KingdomCheck in was difficult. We came at the time given but unfortunately had to leave and come back due to the pub being too busy..
Room was lovely and kept separate from the pub. Meant we could come and go without disturbing anyone.

United KingdomSmall things, nothing major. Shower wasn't great but it did work well enough. One of the other rooms we hired had a problem with the heating so they lent us an extra heater for the room.
Pub with rooms in a tiny Yorkshire village with exceptional countryside views. Good Yorkshire hospitality with good Yorkshire food at Yorkshire prices and a friendly welcome. Staff were great, lent us an ironing board to iron our wedding clothes. Everything was what we expected. Fine and cosy enough for a weekend and good value.

United KingdomThe quilt was too small for the size of the bed. The radiator wasn't working properly so the room was cold although there was a very small heated in the room that we turned on.
The room was nice. The breakfast was good and the gentleman who cooked and served it was very pleasant . The village was beautiful.

AustraliaWe didn't dislike anything.
Great location, a lovely town and just what we expected from an English country Pub. The atmosphere in the Pub was fantastic, the lots of choices of beer on tap which was cold (perfect for Aussies!!) and the food was very good, especially the beef casserole for dinner. Breakfast was lovely with a cooked breakfast, toast with jam/marmalade, OJ, tea and coffee. The room was lovely in the roof loft. We had two single beds which were a little hard for us but we were only there for one night. Overall it was excellent and very good value for money. We really enjoyed our stay at the Fox and Hounds and would recommend to others.

AustraliaPrices have significantly increased in Yorkshire over the last few years. We all know why. So not the fault of the hotel - they're just in keeping with the going rate.
Location was important for me and if staying in West Burton is what you need, then this is ideally located
