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 KingdomThere was a wedding on downstairs which we were not informed of. Their DJ started during dinner and it was so loud we couldn’t even hear each other cross the table. You had to walk through their wedding party room to get out into the garden. Our room was right above theirs and it was vibrating with the noise they were also running up and down the hallways. Next morning we were looking forward to breakfast but when we came down there was food and drinks everywhere that hadn’t been cleaned from the night before. We therefor had to sit outside and the restaurant was disgusting and I mean food everywhere it was awful. We weren’t apologised to or offered any compensation. In future you need to warn your guests if you have events on and if you cannot control the noise you should not be offering stays on the same nights. This really ruined our weekend and we were so upset.
The room was nice

AustraliaWhen I checked in I was taken up to the room and when I entered I realised the room hadn’t been cleaned after the previous guests!! The room was very hot and no air conditioning and the window was broken and wouldn’t stay open. There was no water provided, no tissues. The room wasn’t serviced at all after I checked in. The letter in the room said it was because of COVID… how long can that be used as excuse? The breakfast was packets of cereals with second grade fruit (pear, apple, orange or banana) that you had to cut up yourself. One morning there was no hot water. No staff on duty so tried to phone number given but no one answered.
Staff were very nice and polite.

United KingdomNot complaining as we were fine but there are very steep stairs up to the suite and this would be very difficult to access if you had mobility problems. The entrance to the car park is so lovely and it the original arch. It is very narrow and again, we were fine but if you had a large car you may want too park up the road.
The hotel is really lovely, the staff are exceptional, courteous and welcoming. We booked the suite with a sitting room with pullout bed and up a few stairs into a lovely huge bedroom. The pull out bed was very comfortable and the bed in the main bedroom was one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. Linen high quality as all finishes. Will definitely stay again when we are in the area and so glad we found it. Free parking. Breakfast was perfect, continental and full english, cooked to perfection. We couldn't believe how large the suite was, plenty of room for 4 with room to spare. A real treat.

United KingdomNo evening meal available as the hotel does not do foof on a Monday or Tuesday. I had t go outside and find a local restaurant. Breakfast, included in the price was not available until 8am. When I said that was too late, I was told continental breakfast would be laid out - though there was no fridge I ws told bread would be there. The following morning bread, cereal were on display but there ws no juice, milk, water or ability to make tea. I had to elave without anything as there were no staff around, despite the flyer on the tabel saying breakfast Monday - Friday from 7am. None of these meal times were clear when I booked and if they had been I would not have ckosen this hotel. It is not set up for business travel

I really Cannot fault any aspect of our stay . ( If i had to pick up on something negative , Perhaps tidy up the car drive way leading to the carpark , this was shabby, tired and untidy and not in keeping with the rest of the property as everything was else was so nice !. )

United KingdomRestaurant closed. I was directed to two local restaurants (both were full) or told I could get a take away and take it to my room, which is what I ended up having to do. At breakfast, which was specifically included in the price, I was told if I wanted a cooked breakfast I would have to wait at least 20 minutes because the chef hadn’t turned up. The continental alternative consisted of toast or cereal only and there were no plates so I ended up eating toast off a paper napkin. I also noticed the fire escape was blocked with linen bags.
Clean, comfortable, well located. Friendly staff.

United KingdomWe were disappointed by how things turned out differently to what we thought was booked on booking.com. We booked the 'suite' for 3 guests and were told later by email (and AFTER having paid what we thought was the bill for a 3-person booking on booking.com) that we need to pay an extra 25£ at the hotel for the 3rd person to cover the cost for the linen and doing up the sofa. The photos of the suite showed a nice generous layout (over 439 feet2) with a spacious seating area with the sofa that appeared to be in a room spared away from the one with the double bed giving the 3rd person more privacy. The photos also showed two sets of generously sized windows, one in each of the sub-rooms. In reality we were all stuffed into one dark(ish) room under the sloping roof with some height restrictions. With the sofa bed made up one could hardly move for lack of space. This 3 guest suite came up as a bookable option on booking.com when one applies the filter for pets allowed and the hotel states that they accept pets.. But we were told (later via email and AFTER having paid) that the room is not suitable for a dog but that they would make an exception for us if we don't open the window - we could at that stage only be thankful as we had no option to change travel plans on short notice but it was stressful. I would not hasten to go back. Note: One may not take a dog into restaurant. This is OK as one can go into the bar area but that appears less nice and was another disappointment especially for the breakfast. Parking is indeed tricky due to the fact that the passage past the side of the hotel is extremely narrow.
The restaurant meal was very tasty. Restaurant service was very friendly. The bathroom was clean and spacious
