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 StatesIf I was to list a complaint, it would be completely unhelpful to fellow travelers and explorers. This place is special, it has a great vibe.
The Inn is gorgeous, and bright inside. Rooms are beautifully appointed, clean and quiet. Location could not be better for walking around and exploring Llandovery, or to head out more into the adventures Wales holds. Karen and Mark have created a lovely space, and the food is the best I’ve had in my 6 week UK travels, and perhaps you’ll also sit in the spot King Charles occupied on one of his visits to Llandovery. There just isn’t a more romantic, curated stay I could imagine, The New White Lion is a true highlight.

United KingdomThis is a little gem in Llandovery, the rooms are fantastic, very quaint, excellent decor and comfy beds, we stayed in The Lady of the Lake room it was perfect. Mark and Karen were perfect hosts. They couldn't do enough for us and made it a perfect weekend break away. The breakfast was 10 out of 10, and the cosy log fire in the bar/ living room was very cosy with the honesty bar they provided, which was very well stocked. We would definitely go back and highly recommend this lovely B&B.

Karen prepared a wonderful breakfast of my choice from her menu. The location is a great choice for exploring the interior of South Wales.

Mark & Karen made my wife and I feel very welcome and were wonderful hosts with great attention to detail. The New White Lion is a beautiful place to stay - the decor, furniture and antiques reflecting its rich history. The breakfasts were top-rate; locally produced ingredients, beautifully presented. Close to town with its historical connections, craft and antique shops etc. and within easy reach of other attractions such as National Trust.

Fantastic welcome from Mark and Karen who could not have done more to make our stay memorable. They are exceptional hosts. Our room was beautifully styled and a delight to stay in with a very comfy bed, little treats of chocolate and fudge, quality biscuits and drinks including thoughtful touches like fresh milk. The breakfasts were amazing with very generous portions and we were urged to help ourselves to cake and fruit for the day and our coffee flask always filled for us. An extensive honesty bar and lovely lounge area were brilliant extras. A B&B which we would be delighted to go back to and which is an absolute gem!

United KingdomWhere to start? We have just returned from an absolutely fantastic stay at the New White Lion. We were given a free room upgrade, a room with a bath which was perfect after our days out walking. This is a high end B&B and very tastefully decorated and so clean. We enjoyed making use of the lounge area and honesty bar. There were always plenty of goodies in the lounge to help ourselves to, (we took cookies to eat after our walk). Breakfast was superb, all fresh and local produce. Mark and Karen are fantastic hosts. They have only been running this business since last October and we wish them the future success they so deserve.
