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 KingdomI appreciate that the Mouse Trap did not open until 3 P.M. but it have been helpful to have the front door open to deposit bags. However, when subsequently entering through the rear door the Lady in Charge was most helpful and polite. I realise that maintenance work was being undertaken but when Booking prior notice should have been given relevant to parking in the British Legion Car Park. Would have avoided a lot of frustration. Finally NO Lounge Area to enjoy a quiet drink after dinner. Had to attend the Pub up the road.
Breakfast was good and the Lady serving Excellent but why could the Chef not provide the exact order. I appreciate that the Chef tried to provide a substantial breakfast but if the order is for One Egg why provide Two Eggs. Room was adequate. Shower was small and leaked due to the drain not being cleaned. Dinner was satisfactory.

United KingdomUnfortunately, for us, the bed was way too hard. The room was a little tired but renovations following a fire are ongoing so we could understand that resources were probably diverted elsewhere
Breakfast was lovely. The staff were super friendly and helpful.

United KingdomBedrooms very small and very tired need a lot of TLC but that has started by the look of it with kitchen. Staff to be fair are working under some difficulties because of the kitchen but trying their very best
Breakfast was lovely. Bar in the evening very friendly we chatted to many customers in the night. Lovely atmosphere and food looked good even through we did nt book the restaurant. We ate earlier in the day.

A delightful old inn. The room was nice - comfy bed and a good shower. Breakfast was delicious and we had an evening meal which was fantastic. The biggest recommendation is the staff - everyone we encountered was helpful and friendly. A really excellent team. We hope to return.

MexicoThe room was too hot and the thermostat could not be adjusted, so we ended up sleeping with the windows open, which was not ideal in February. The bed was not especially comfortable for us, but this is highly subjective.
The location was excellent, though parking was a slight challenge due to ongoing renovations. The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere inside the bar on a Friday night was very inviting.
